I’m weirdly obsessed with dream sequences in fiction. Hallucinations, fever dreams, insane mental imagery. There's something fascinating about how stories use them to explore a character’s psyche. In this video, we’ll dive into what makes a GOOD nightmare sequence. What film, animation, and games all do best when it comes to crafting a good hallucination. This is the anatomy of the fever dream.
