This topic is called "Unveiling the Facade of Horror: A Psychoanalytic Reading of "Before I Wake", starring Jesse Hobson, attempts to present the narrative as a journey into the mother's unconscious, rethinking the horror genre It's an undercover psychoanalysis movie disguised as Mike Flanagan's horror adventure, packed with a good story that's thought-provoking and surprising in its content. It looks like a dark dream that mixes a bit of horror with intense drama. When we delve deeper into the film, it becomes clear that the film is a desire for destruction and a time warp. In the era of stress, anxiety and depression, the horror genre could be used to uncover the dark side of human consciousness and helps to search for the causes and offer solutions.
