Woah, so much I love to sleep. Sometimes I even like it better than being awake. And although insomnia is actually an issue I suffer in my own flesh and bones I can imagine it could become a panic threat if it became a generalized matter.
That premise is taken in the horror and thriller Thirst (2023) as the starting point of the plot. In it, insomnia spreads in a small town, causing fear and panic. As the situation becomes dire, two couples find salvation on an abandoned ranch, but as nefarious characters descend upon the land, claiming it as their own, chaos ensues.
