On their way through the Nevada desert, down-on-their-luck Megan
(Jackie Kreisler) and Dylan (Shane Elliott) stop at a diner in the middle
of nowhere where the owner Blake (Jonathan Breck) fills them in on all
kind of weird stuff happening at nearby Area 51, where the army is
allegedly experimenting with UFOs and time travel - and indeed there's something
going on out in the desert, as Megan and Dylan have to find out when their car
first stops for no apparent reason, is then carjacked by Hitler (Marlo
Bernier) - really -, and Megan and Dylan are seperated, get temporarily
lost, and while Megan has all sorts of spooky apparitions - including a
dying soldier (Ward Roberts) who seems to be plucked right from a
battlefield and a little girl (Channing Nichols) who seems weirdly
familiar -, Dylan is just teleported away while someone (or something) else
returns in his body. Finally, Megan and the fake Dylan reunite and return
to Blake's diner - but Megan becomes more and more convinced that there is
something wrong with Dylan and with everything else, and she makes a
getaway that leads her to a hut in the desert where she finds proof that
she has actually been caught in a time loop but might actually be much
more involved in the whole thing that she has thought - yes, she might
even be related to the aliens whose UFO is kept at Area 51 ... The
story of Dreamland quickly gets caught up in its own logic (or lack
thereof), and while it does its best to appear intelligent, the film
actually becomes pretty silly towards the end. That said though, Dreamland
is not a bad film as such, it's extremely atmospheric, makes the most of
its low budget, its nighttime desert scenery, and some of its ideas like
the carjacking Hitler are actually pretty original and appealing even if
they make no sense on closer inspection. Plus, Jackie Kreisler's solid
performance really carries the movie. Now if a bit more thought would have
been put into the film's resolution, this could have been great, as it is,
it's still above-average genre entertainment - especially if you don't pay
too much attention to its story.
