Sleepstalker (released in the Philippines as A Demon in the House) is a 1995 horror film directed by Turi Meyer, written by Al Septien and Meyer, and starring Michael Harris, Jay Underwood, Kathryn Morris, and Michael D. Roberts.
Seventeen years after slaughtering all but one member of a family, "The Sandman" (Michael Harris) is pending execution. Before his execution the jailers allow a minister (Michael D. Roberts) to visit him. The minister is a voodoo priest and an ally of the prisoner, which the jailers did not realize. A hex is placed onto The Sandman, so that when his execution is over, his soul can travel to a new body made of sand, but all his blood relatives would need to die. The Sandman then plots to kill a young man named Griffin (Jay Underwood), who is his biological little brother, and additionally, a survivor of the abuse of their birth father. Griffin survived the attempted slaughter, but his adoptive parents did not. The Sandman is then reborn, upon execution, to have a chance to try once again.
An international co-production between The United Kingdom and The United States. Prism Entertainment began pre-production of the film in 1994. [2]
Sleepstalker was released direct-to-video in 1995. [1] In the Philippines, the film was released in theaters as A Demon in the House on April 27, 1995. [3]
