The Nightmare Room

This nightmare comprises a locked room with a spiteful brew of jealousy and deceit as two best friends squabble over the same man and expose their worst characteristics. One is successful and rich, the other less demanding but quite as cruel. The man of their desire is a swine. Fortunately, Angie Smith and Sarah Wynne Kordas bring plenty of fire and emotion to the mix as flash-backs dig into their happier pasts while they ruthlessly dissect their present unhealthy situation. Starkly contrasting lighting and alarmingly brash sound effects contribute to the chilling atmosphere inspired by an Arthur Conan Doyle mystery.
