Attention: Ms Capshaw/ Spielberg, 21 August 2000
Author: Jawsphobia from Toronto, Ontario

Dreamscape is highly overlooked, and certainly ripe for a sequal. The premise of dream reasearchers entering dreams may have raised the stakes as high as they go for the apocalypticly deep nightmare climax of this film - where the president of the united stares could be a potential patient. But there is still room to explore. Kate Capshaw and Dennis Quade star. If there was enough promotion, and if there is any cachet to the original, Ms Capshaw-Spielberg might do well to produce a follow-up. I'd see it.
