Bag det stille ydre

people giving this worthless movie 10/10 must be mentally retarded or personally involved with cast, crew or director. This is painfully embarrassing, amateurish & unoriginal. A stain of shame on the danish film industry (which is already lousy, this just beats all). AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!

Classic haunting-flick; dead returns in spirit-shape to avenge injustice. NOT scary. Not well acted. Not funny. Very sad release, I can't believe there's been spent time and money on this utter crap.

Some of the actors are very famous in Denmark. Hopefully their careers will look very different after saying yes to this BS.

Let me put it in few words so I don't waste your time: This movie is awful, awkward and terrible. People who has good things to say about it must be related to cast or crew. Don't watch it. Don't waste your time. Just don't.

Normally I don't feel the urge to comment on a film. But this one is surely one very bad apple among other splendid danish movies. The acting was awkward and the "spookyness" just for laughs. It is embarrassing. Only my ability to write in English keeps me from going into details.

I like the genre but leave it to Hollywood. Please.

I'm a big fan of Dennis Jürgensen. I try to read nearly everything he does, and enjoy the vast majority of it. And some of his stories would make for damn good movies. That's why it's disappointing when *this* is all it amounts to when it is attempted. This steals "worst yet" of the three from Mørkeleg. I'm starting to think that it's Schmidt; as much as it pains me to say, this reuses the effects that worked in the other two films they made together, in spite of it being a *completely* different style of horror. You don't assign a POV(however many graphics you add to make it eerie) to a ghost! That takes away from the mystique, which is a quality that this could desperately use. Yes, fine, you shot it with a fish-eye lens, ooh, look at how vaguely strange it looks... seriously, Martin, put the camera down if you aren't done playing around with the tools. It's a stage that everyone working in this industry needs to get past, before he expects actual audiences to take him seriously. Stuff similar to that appeared in Sidste Time, and it was easier to forgive, because that was completely different. That one was about exactly what is happening, not whether or not something is occurring. This flick would be far better if subtlety was applied. The paranormal phenomena are overly obvious, and thus(to the people in this) impossible to ignore(and one or two are unintentionally hilarious), the psychic is ridiculously simplified, and a couple of the setups for scares are just plain clumsy. This isn't all that engaging or terrifying. The plot starts out OK, but in the last fifteen minutes or so, it degenerates into a senseless mess. Was that really the twist? I feel like the ending belongs to another picture. The characters aren't interesting or entirely credible. Dialog, as well as several of the jokes, might have worked on the page, and they fall apart when spoken. The humor is hit and miss, and this definitely does hold a bit of good material. Acting is reasonable at best. The kid is utterly unconvincing. There is a little disturbing content, sensuality and violence in this. The DVD holds an amusing and informative commentary track(with the director, the writer, the producer and a crew-member I don't know the English term for). Furthermore, there's Blaffer(a short also by the guy who helmed this, and it's not half bad), premiere footage, a trailer for this and one for The Amityville Horror, for anyone patient enough to work out the maze(!) necessary to get to the special features menu. I recommend this solely to those looking to support those who made it. 5/10

Knowing very little about this title, I decided to rent it with my wife. Danish horror movies do not come along too often, and the last one we saw, Midsommer, was a pleasant surprise. I had expected the same creepy feeling in this movie - and especially as the main characters in this one are more mature. Unfortunately the script is not as strong in this movie. The actors are struggling with sentences that would never be said in real life, which is a shame. Dejan Cukic has done much better before, he has proved that with the right script and instruction, he can actually act. This movie is an embarrassment to his skills. The same thin cannot be said about Anne Birgitte Lind, who basically stinks in everything she has been in - including this movie! When does she realize that acting is more than reading lines from the script? The story makes no sense, and the characters actions are downright ridiculous. The movie fails on all accounts in my book! By the way, Zlatko Buric is a walking joke. He should have stopped his career after the first Pusher-film!

Again Jurgensen shows his genius. The critics will probably not like this movie but it is because they have no sense of humour and don't understand the horror genre. In fact, this is a brilliant horror movie far, far better than recent Hollywood "horror" and on the level of recent Japanese and South-East Asian horror (such as The Eye, The Ring, Dark Water, etc.) Jurgensen is a genius and in this movie he is at the height of his powers. Him and Martin Schmidt clearly knows their stuff. They know the genre in and out and demonstrate how to make a horror movie with integrity and excitement. The dialogue is amazing, for example the one between David and Sarah: "Hvad laver du i din fritid?" "Jeg rider", etc. This is just so funny and brilliant. I don't know what people's problem is when the rate movies like this so low. It must simply be ignorance towards the fundamentals of the horror genre. Let me tell you folks: Horror does not get any better than this! Take it or leave it!
