In a world where children have fallen into a deep, coma-like sleep, a terrifying new reality dawns. Directed by Hal Masonberg, this chilling horror-thriller follows James Van Der Beek as Tom Russel, a man returning to his hometown after a long absence, only to find it gripped by an unfathomable epidemic. The children are not dead, but they are not awake, and their eerie stillness is only the beginning. As Tom reunites with an old flame, played by Ivana Milicevic, and confronts a community led by figures like the determined Sheriff Brad Hunt and a concerned mother Dee Wallace Stone, a more sinister truth begins to stir. The adults soon face a waking nightmare of their own when the slumbering youth begin to rise, transformed into something monstrous and driven by a single, violent purpose. The film crafts a tense atmosphere of dread and paranoia, exploring the primal fear of a generation turned against itself, where the central conflict becomes a desperate struggle for survival against the very future they sought to protect.
