Having exploded onto the scene with his original superb short, Roid Rage – a grindhouse style indie flick about a guy with killer hemorrhoids which he wrote, shot, directed, edited and scored the film himself – Ryan Lightbourn has got behind the camera for his feature-film debut with vicious creature feature Sleepwalkers, shot in the Floridian bayous and swamps and starring Ansley Gordon, Amanda Phillips, Tommy Goodman, Ben Owen, and Ben Evans.
Sleepwalkers tells the story of five college students as they attempt to enjoy a festive spring break getaway, only to encounter a deadly, nocturnal presence. As horrific events unfold, the group joins forces with a local convenience store owner and a prison escapee. Nighttime approaches and they must set aside their differences and use their wits to survive.

Ryan Lightbourn is the director of “Roid Rage”, a film that our own Todd Rigney seemed to enjoy quite a bit. You can read his review for that inspired tale of depravity here. Lightbourn has followed up that gruesome effort with, from the looks of it, another rather bloody tale of woe in the horror “Sleepwalkers”. Check out the first trailer for the film, along with a poster and some images below. Strangely, it’s not about finding a cure for sleepwalking. Go figure. Set in the deepest corners of Florida’s woods, five college students attempt to enjoy a festive spring break getaway when they encounter a deadly, nocturnal presence. As horrific events unfold, the group joins forces with a local convenience store owner and a prison escapee.
