In the series "The Sleep of Reason", produced by and aired on Studio Universal, a British journalist investigates the murder of a woman and tries to explain that behind this homicide there is some kind of irrational explanation. The more he tries to collect evidence, the more he gets dragged into the world of the paranormal: mediums, ghosts, bi-location, transmigration of the soul. What I found it fascinating, compared to other similar kind of formats, is that here there is no effort whatsoever to scare, on the contrary everything is reported exactly as a real journalist would. This detached style of telling what is quite an incredible story is I think the strength of this product, halfway between a collection of independent shorts and a miniseries. "The Blair Witch Project" is probably the only other movie I have seen in years that has given me the same sense of realism, although its premises were completely different in its attempt to boost its own credibility, whereas "The Sleep of Reason" does not really deny its fictional nature. Rather, it applies a news reporting style to fiction in a way that makes the product's structure prevail over story itself, with "realism" becoming the grid through which the plot unfolds. While not immune from often severe dramatic inconsistencies and sometimes chaotic story lines, something to watch nevertheless.
