The Russian Sleep Experiment – “Summer 1945, deep within the Soviet Union. A dedicated Russian scientist (Gary Brunner) begins an experiment on three Nazi war criminals. Felix Nast (Michael Bugard), Hanz Berlitz (Zach Ross) and Ulrich Shultz (Brett Solferino) are held within a sealed chamber for 30 days under the effects of an experimental sleep deprivation gas. These men are kept awake to confront their demons and fight psychological trauma all while being methodically analyzed by the scientist.”
‘The Russian Sleep Experiment’ short film received a great review from film/TV director (‘Xena: Warrior Princess’, ‘Alien Apocalypse’, ‘Running Time’) and veteran of ‘The Evil Dead’, Josh Becker: “The Russian Sleep Experiment is certainly one of the best short films I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen a lot of them. It excels in every department: the script is unique, interesting and well-written; the direction is snappy and consistently inventive, the acting is believable and top-notch; the photography is extremely good and exactly what it should be; and it all comes together in what I feel is the perfect length and tone, thus achieving an extremely solid impact in its payoff. This film should knock them dead at the big film festivals. I’m completely impressed, and as anyone who knows me will certainly vouch, that doesn’t happen to me very often anymore.”
