OPEN YOUR EYES - FILM

THE STORY:

Set in the Desturbia universe, the two hour sequel film moves along the story and takes us 13 years into the future from where we ended. After the tragic death of one of the inner circle members, Dana Knight re-awakens to a different world and a life unlike the one she left behind. Haunted by visions and nightmares, Dana begins to question her own reality and identity as she  starts to hear voices in her head telling her to “OPEN HER EYES” as well as being terrorized by an unknown figure-wearing a dark mask and black hood, whom she feels a strange familiarity towards—and is possibly a bad omen of what’s to come.

Will Dana survive the journey for the truth and will she finally OPEN HER EYES to it? or is she destined to see another LIE?
