Really messed up dream

I just woke up and I'm going to tell you about this seriously disturbing dream I had.

It was a sort of pilot episode to a tv series, I think it was called "Unlawfully--" er, something. Or maybe "Blind Justice". I forget. It was really clear in my mind the first time I woke up, when all I could think was "what. was. THAT?!?!" but then I did go back to sleep, to try and mentally rinse my head out with something else. So it was a couple of hours back.

So the story follows this guy, he's a treasure hunter I guess, holed up in this beach front house. He leaves, but the lights are out, and he's worried he may not be able to find where he's going.. he's kind of worried that he won't even be able to make it back to the beach house, it's so dark, this despite their being no other landmarks nearby.

In the darkness on the beach, a woman approaches, running, she's scared, the guy offers to help her, to take her back to the beach house for protection. They find their way back to the house, but the guy starts getting suspicious of her motives, of the REAL reason she's out there at night, being chased by whatever. He leaps into the water (there's a hole at the far end of the beach house, like what you see people go ice fishing in, but obviously much larger to accomodate a person going in and out) to demonstrate how the woman could have, at an earlier time, been listening in to his conversation about the treasure, that she's here to somehow cheat him out of it. But he offers to legitimately cut her in, climbing up out of the hole, soaking wet.

I guess she agrees, because the next scene is the two of them joined up with another man and woman, navigating around a mountain of human body parts. A sort of flash forward happens, where we see where the "series" is headed, all four of the characters, now limbless, each wrapped in a sort of flesh coloured cacoon, alternately bobbing in the water, or rolling towards some goal, or riding in the back of a pick up truck. Somehow it's made clear that these characters have gained a sort of immortality, a month of life for every time they consume flesh (suggesting that, while they were lost, bobbing out at sea, they survived on their own arms and legs).. but that isn't what happened at all.

Back to the mountain of body parts, the four characters, still whole, come upon another group, two or three large. They are responsible for grisly scene around everyone. Someone in the main group was a traitor, working for these guys the whole time. The new groups leader attacks, but the main character shoots at his eyes. Maybe the bad guy is blinded for the moment, but he's some kind of supernatural monster, inhumanly strong, also immortal. He picks up the main guy, and blinds him.

All three of the main group are mutilated: the main guy loses his legs, the other two, well, I think something different happens, but I can only remember it as them also losing their lower half, so whatever.

There's a cut, and it's clearly several years later, and that main guy now works for some international police service. He's blind, in a wheel chair, but also vows to keep searching for the people that did this to him. He boisterously takes whatever cases the agency assigns him, hoping to get the people that did this, all the while the people that assign him cases are unnerved by him, while also thinking he can't get any of his jobs accomplished.

So yeah, that was that. Really really really messed up.

  1. I think you might need to get one of those new lucid dreaming mask things to take control of the dreamscape.
