## Description

Product Description          Although he recently lost his father, John Figg seems to have it all, a beautiful soon-to-be fiancé, a loving dog, a new promotion, and loyal friends - until the house he inherits gets viciously robbed. Convinced a robbery will happen again and by someone he knows, John develops a severe case of insomnia. John goes through a downward spiral, choosing to stay awake until he catches his culprit. Are his neighbors to blame? His friends? His girlfriend? His clients? He has reasons to accuse all and a ton of note pads to write out all his irrational - and sometimes rational - convictions.             Review          Maybe it was a subconsciously therapeutic thing, or maybe it was just the type of story I wanted to tell. But I wanted that arc to be in the protagonist's story. In the movie, no one understands what John Figg is going through. The people around him show they care in their own way, but not really in the way he needs them to. This - along with John's unrelenting personality - leads to his downward spiral. All the events in my life, both good and bad, have lead me to this - THE INSOMNIAC. I am exceptionally proud of this film, and of all the hard work put in by the cast and crew. They were all Godsends, and I couldn't imagine myself making a movie without these guys in my corner. I welcome you to keep in mind that there' s a bit of John in all of us. Just make sure that little bit of John gets some sleep! Eddy Salazar --Eddy Salazar Writer ,Producer The Insomniac7.9 Imdb rating compare this to Machinist, Bringing Out of the Dead, Insomnia --ImdbIf Agatha Christie and Roman Polanski got together for a cup of coffee or, more likely, overproof rum mixed with black tea, also known as a Jägertee -- they would come up with a story line close to The Insomniac, a risky film oscillating between a classic melodrama and an up-tempo thriller. Director Monty Miranda brings us this tale about a young man living together with the ghosts of his past and a promising future. --Summit Daily News Weekender by Leonardo SantanaThe Insomniac is a slow-burn thriller with an extra layer of humanity... a deeply personal film with a sinister edge. This is a great example of what real indie film can be with a strong story and a careful director. There are some recognizable faces in the cast, and due to the inimitable Danny Trejo (who spends his time on screen being uncharacteristically quiet, though as threatening as ever) and the hey, it s that guy status of John Heard, the more elitist and discriminating viewer may be inclined to take The Insomniac seriously; but it s a mistake to assume those minor star power accents make the film. The Insomniac is a success not because of a bloated budget or an a-list cast, but because it is a meaningful story conveyed with restraint, discipline, and heart. --Viole Reviews.com- JohnThe Insomniac has garnered some notable festival awards, including Best Dialog in a Feature at the Action on Film International Film Festival and Best Screenplay at the Breckenridge Festival of Film. And, frankly, it s easy to see why... The Insomniac is a carefully crafted and finely-tuned crime thriller. Certainly, like many greener indie features, it misses some steps -- some of the performances are wooden, and some overwrought; and, as a result, from time to time, the dialog suffers. But the story always recovers, and I was unable to shake off the desire to see what was to come next -- what the next extreme measure would be, and who would suffer because of it. This is one of the hallmarks of good writing... that despite misfires in performance, the story s hooks never come loose. This is obviously a testament to both Salazar and Peter Kenneth Jones, who wrote a drum-tight script. Clearly, the fact that Salazar himself has a profound personal connection to the story (he recently lost both his parents and was the victim of a home invasion) made the narrative that much stronger and, as it s so firmly rooted in reality, that much more believable. --Vile Reviews .com- John

Strange movie

### ⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Overrated with 5 star reviews

The Insomniac is a somewhat watchable thriller / mystery that has entirely too many 5 star reviews, a real problem here and on IMDB. People vastly overrating a movie to the maximum number of stars because they have a personal attachment to the film is ruining the rating systems that have been reliable for many years. Not the worst movie but not the best either, I saw only 2 stars.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Wonderfully entertaining

John Figg (Eddy Salazar) thought his world was pretty cushy. A recent work promotion, a loving girlfriend. The only bummer has been the recent death of his beloved father. Now he has moved into his dad's house to settle the estate. Soon afterwards his car is stolen and a few days later this house is broken into. In a believable turn of character, he turns into an extremely paranoid, edgy guy. He purchases a gun and turns into an insomniac suspicious about nearly everyone. I read where Eddy Salazar lost a lot of weight to portray this character. The make-up on him is outstanding and truly shows a crazed, tortured guy. The cinematography is outstanding, the cast amazing and the writing solid and suspenseful. Definitely two thumbs up for me!
