Eli Roth’s The Horror Section expands its slate of boundary-pushing horror with the award-winning film Dream Eater, a found-footage chiller from the Canadian genre trio behind Blind Luck Pictures. Co-written and co-directed by Jay Drakulic, Mallory Drumm and Alex Lee Williams and starring Williams and Drumm, Dream Eater debuts theatrically on October 24, 2025.

Blending raw, documentary-style realism with escalating tension and scares, Dream Eater follows Mallory (Mallory Drumm), a filmmaker who heads to a remote cabin in the mountains with her boyfriend Alex (Alex Lee Williams) to document his violent parasomnia. As his condition worsens, Mallory suspects something more sinister may be at play.

Dream Eater marks the second feature collaboration between Drakulic, Drumm and Williams as a collaborative under their Blind Luck Pictures banner, with both films executive produced and financed by Vortex Media, the company handling Canadian distribution of Dream Eater. Together, they bring a multi-perspective voice to the genre, rooted in DIY filmmaking and a shared love of horror. Dream Eater marks a further step forward as the film garnered strong word-of-mouth buzz online and earned multiple awards, including Best Feature at the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival in Portland, Oregon.
