Close Your Eyes And The Adventure Begins.
Alex Gardner (Dennis Quaid) is a man with an incredible psychic gift… but for years has used it solely for personal gain. Reuniting with his old mentor, Dr. Novotny (Max von Sydow), Gardner joins a government project in which he learns to channel his abilities in order to enter peoples' subconscious through their dreams. As his powers grow, the young psychic soon finds himself in a living nightmare of conspiracy and murder… and the only way out is to go back in.
A sleeper hit on its initial release, Dreamscape's reputation as a classic of '80s genre entertainment has only grown over the years. From its impressive cast – including Christopher Plummer, Kate Capshaw, Eddie Albert, David Patrick Kelly, and George Wendt – to behind-the-camera talent such as director Joseph Ruben (The Stepfather) and co-writer Chuck Russell (A Nightmare On Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, 1988's The Blob), Dreamscape is a rousing mix of science fiction, adventure, and horror beyond your wildest imagination.

An underrated eighties classic, featuring some top-notch makeup and creature FX (including a memorable stop-motion snake-man). Definitely worth a second look.

Many people don't know this, but DREAMSCAPE was first out of the gate in 1984 to explore the psychology and menace of dreams, months before we first met Freddy Krueger. This is the best presentation of the film by far. The bonus materials are great, especially "Dreamscapes And Dreammakers." The new cover art, enlarged on the terrific (and free!) poster compliments the original nicely. The film holds up surprisingly well, although the Snake Man might not scare you as much as an adult ;-) Recommended.
