Thanks to the makers of the upcoming Red Sleep for bringing us up the speed on what promises to be a slick new show. Written and directed by Andre Welsh, Red Sleep touches on the U.S.'s long history of medical experimentation on prison inmates and the pharmaceutical/military industrial complex. I know. Big words, especially for us. Or, as the official synopsis goes: an escaped inmate makes a deal with a U.S. military drug experiment in exchange for his freedom. After taking on a new identity in Los Angeles, the drug's side effects and his past, catch up with him Here's a trailer mofos: RED SLEEP Trailer from Andre Welsh on Vimeo . Red Sleep stars Chioke Jelani Clanton, Ron Kaell, Jessica Sonneborn and Don Stark. Wanna keep up with the series? Check it out on Facebook . Source: Red Sleep
