You are correct about the Russian Sleep Experiment begin complete science fiction. Although sleep deprivation can cause hallucinations, depression, weakening of the immune system and damages an individual's physical/psychological health, people don't enter a state of psychosis. Also, sleep deprivation can cause death if an individual doesn't sleep for 10-12 days; think of it as the brain pressing 'Control, Alt, Delete'.
