Good premise buried by stupid writing

This film looks good on paper but the writing is so dumb it's hard to overlook.Where exactly did the dreams take these people? Are they dead? Can they come back?...yeah apparently a HUGE part of the film gets the don't worry about it treatment.The wife apparently doesn't care one bit that a kids dream just devoured her husband and one of his classmates. She just goes on like she was never married. No investigation nothing. Ok???What in the world are we seeing in the end? All of the "dead" people are seen "alive" in some weird story sequence except for the fact they aren't. In the hall she says "let them go". Um what?? WHERE ARE THEY? How the F are they even dead in the first place? Why is it some feel good ending when there's literally several effing people missing and we don't get ONE SHRED of explanation as to what happened to them? CanCER man eats them and boom they're gone LOL. HOW IS THAT A HAPPY ENDING? Also we're to assume THIS KID WILL NEVER HAVE ANOTHER NIGHTMARE AGAIN?This film is so terribly written and they know it because the feel good ending tries to completely make the viewer forget about all of these GAPING plot holes. This is not a good film at all.
