Holy dream-invading, batman! In a world where humans have apparently hit the snooze button on their imagination, we now have a film about a lonely monster clinging to the last scraps of REM sleep like it’s a limited edition Pokémon card.

So let me get this straight—humanity collectively decided that dreams were overrated, probably after binge-watching too much reality TV, and now there’s only one creature left still hitting the snooze button on life? Enter the tragic monster, floating through a personal Disneyland of illusions that nobody else can see. Must be rough, buddy. Like being the only one at a party who remembers how to use the karaoke machine.

But wait! A hero emerges! Not some sword-wielding knight or caped crusader—nope, just a regular woman with the rare superpower of being able to spot fake dreams. That’s right, folks, in this dystopian nightmare, dream-vision is apparently rarer than a decent Wi-Fi signal on a cross-country train. And instead of running for the hills, she decides to dive headfirst into the monster’s subconscious. Bold move. I’d rather swim with sharks wearing a meat suit.

And who’s behind this cinematic brain-tickler? None other than Bi Gan, the visionary director who clearly raided the “What Dreams May Come” prop closet and sprinkled in a bit of existential dread for flavor. Starring Jackson Yee, Shu Qi, Mark Chao, and Li Gengxi—because when you’re invading someone’s dreamscape, you need an all-star lineup. It’s like the Avengers, but for the dream-deprived.

Mark your calendars, insomniacs and cinephiles: RESURRECTION hits UK and Irish cinemas on March 13th, 2026. Perfect timing for anyone still recovering from their New Year’s resolution to “sleep better.” Just don’t blame us if you leave the theater questioning whether your own dreams were actually just poorly rendered CGI.

And for those keeping track: this is officially the first film where the trailer might be more confusing than the plot of Inception after three glasses of wine. But hey, at least the poster looks fancy. Someone call the art department—we’ve found our next Zoom background.

Stay dreamy, folks. Or don’t. Apparently, it’s optional now. 🌙✨
