This 1984 sci-fi/horror stars a very young Dennis Quaid, a pre-Indy Kate Capshaw and depending on the time of the release, (both Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and Dreamscape being released in the same year) we appear to have very similar posters. Rather deceptive when you actually see Dreamscape.
Plot: Dennis Quaid is able to remote-view, read peoples minds. He uses this talent to pick horses at the racetrack. Then one day Max Von Sydow (Ming-Flash Gordon) arrives, saves him from angry bookies and asks him to join his scientific project, to enter dreams and help people with their nightmares. Dennis is reluctant, but then Kate Capshaw arrives and his libido agrees. Turns out the project is government funded, meaning there's a bit of dodginess abound and Dennis is gonna have to save the day.
Sfx aren't bad. There's a little claymation and a few funky coloured backgrounds. That's pretty much ya lot.
Gross: $12,145,169
Fun Fact: Another film based on a Robert Zelazny book, this time a hybrid of two-He Who Shapes and The Dream Master.
