I want to ask about one movie, l have been searching for its name for years, unfortunately still without success. I watched it when I was a kid and forgot almost everything about it, I remember only a couple of scenes. The film is I think from the eighties, or maybe early nineties and it is a psychological drama with elements of horror or thriller. If I remember correctly it’s about a boy whose parents are divorced and all this is having an obvious effect on him. In any case, I think that his father is away. I remember one scene when he sees his father, like a figure on the other end of the hall, and that figure suddenly bursts towards him, but more like a flash, very fast, and the scene is accompanied by loud noise or something. Maybe that was his nightmare, I don’t remember, or something supernatural. The other scene I remember is when he is having a nightmare that the lion has jumped on his bed, and he is scared and he wakes up. That’s all I can remember. Someone suggested it might be Shock (1977) or David (1988), unfortunately no. If anyone can help, it would be really appreciated!

Maybe Mother’s Boys (1993) with Jamie Lee Curtis? It has a nightmare sequence identical to the one you described: the father moves super quickly towards the son.
