This week it's Maffs pick, Sleepwalkers! And what a backstory there is to this one!

Sleepwalkers is a 1992 horror film directed by Mick Garris and written by Stephen King. The film revolves around a mother and son who are shapeshifting, vampiric creatures known as "Sleepwalkers." They feed on the life force of young virgins to sustain themselves.

The production of Sleepwalkers involved a mix of horror and dark fantasy elements, typical of Stephen King's work. The movie featured a mother and son duo played by Alice Krige and Brian Krause, who are on the run from authorities and encounter various supernatural challenges.

The film's production emphasized practical effects and makeup to bring the monstrous Sleepwalkers to life. It also included a memorable sequence involving a cemetery battle. While not a critical success, Sleepwalkers has gained a cult following among fans of Stephen King's work and '90s horror movies for its unique and bizarre storyline.
