The monster that a married woman imagines becomes a tad more real than anyone bargains for in horror specialist Rolfe Kanefsky's boobs n' scares trash horror outing, "Nightmare Man." If there were a 99 Cents Store for movies, cheapo pic -- designed more for lonely male geeks in their teens and above than the date crowd -- would fit nicely on the shelves...After receiving an exotic mask decor item in a shipment, Ellen (Blythe Metz) is perpetually visited in her nightmares by a horned chap whose face resembles the demon-like mask...Final twist may be less predictable than what comes before, but it certainly gets to have it both ways by trading psychological for supernatural horror that's no more or less credible than anything else in this silly programmer...In a bow to '60s and '70s trash-o-ramas and to Troma pics, no gal appears onscreen very long before she gets (at least partially) naked, perfs are either absurdly stiff or over-the-top, and effects and makeup look like they were made in someone's garage. Unlike pics of yore shot on film, Paul Deng's digital lensing is dreadful during nighttime scenes -- comprising about 95% of the running time. - Robert Koehler
