Killer by Nature (2010)

Owen Whitmore, a tormented teenager battling a sleep disorder and prone to sleepwalking, finds himself caught in a web of confusion and fear. His regular therapy sessions with Dr. Katherine Ramos only further unravel the mysteries hidden in his subconscious. As he steps onto the path of medical school, he's torn between the demands of his future and the longing for his love, Maggie, a dilemma that sends ripples of concern through his parents, Leona and Walter Whitmore. As Owen's dreams take a violent turn, Dr. Ramos seeks the expertise of Dr. Jonas Julian, a renowned specialist in the labyrinth of dream analysis and sleep disorders. Amidst this turmoil, the town seethes with unrest as the impending execution of the notorious serial killer, Dr. Eugene "Mean Gene" Branch, looms at the Townsend State Prison. The infamous Dr. Branch, born of a serial killer's lineage, is notorious for his sadistic medical experiments inflicted upon his victims. In a shocking twist, the town is rocked by the discovery of Marcia Freeman, who had previously vanished without a trace. Her death chillingly mirrors the horrors seen in Owen's dreams, eerily resembling the modus operandi of the incarcerated Dr. Branch. This unsettling coincidence throws Owen's world into a spiral of terror and intrigue, as he grapples with the sinister connections between his nightmares and the grim reality.
