    Actually not bad at all!!

    What is wrong with people and all the hate on many of these reviews? The acting is actually excellent the story is just fine and moves right along. People over analyzing is the problem. Just sit back and enjoy the movie and chill out... For cripe sakes!!!

    Worth a watch

    It does take you along but tends to do so slowly.However , you would like it if you stay till the end.They are some scenic places in the movie which would add to the melange.

    feeling obliged to...

    Watch this norwegian based mysterious horror thriller since im norwegian, left me in the end with bland feelings the story is short and repetitive dreamlike horror that materialize in a pretty twisted end. and the start of the story you see a bloodcovered panicking lady, waking up her son fleeing their house and hauls a boat to ship them away from something bad and sinister...

    its a film with vast fjordlandscapes, narrow roads and rather peculiar inhabitants of rednecks community at an island i guess in the nortern parts of west norway. its grell, rainy and cold as usual and when the 15 years ago fleeing son comes back with his heavy pregnant wife, youll sense that the house is built on an evil lot. so if you come to norway for holyday, stay away from the most desolate firth communities cause they tend to be druide driven or extremely religious with the word of the bible as a guideline...he-he

    its a small cast movie a bland of norwegian extras and smaller parts, they do speak english, but i tend to be nauseaus when the american/british actors take a mouthfull of norwegian æ ø å words,terrible and wrecks the film hollistically, almost 99.8% percent of norwegians do understand basic 5000 words vocabulary ... but it made me laugh.

    otherwise its a resurgens of repetitive dreams that marks the plot, pretty nice but may become boring for the real horrormystery nerd. productionwise its no much glitches, some of the camera techniques are brilliant, and the musical score feel like a thorn in my eardrum, but it works darn well anyway.

    even though i love to live in the lowest /flattest parts of norway where the highest hill is 132 moh and still being a hill when descending i do fall in grace of the natural beauty of norway. so its a film to watch, though not an EMP of extravaganza. so its a small recommend from the grumpy old man

    Midsommar + The Wicker Man + HP

    Midsommar + The Wicker Man + HP Lovecraft = I'm on it!

    It's a good movie with potential to be much more. Some good moments, beautiful scenario, good atmosphere, a really great ending, always great Barbara, the main girl does a good job, but, unfortunately the main actor was not that convincing. It's a bit repetitive (too many dreams), but I found it better than most people say and worth a watch.

    Much ado about nothing

    Here we have a tale where it's kind of slow at the beginning, then gets a little more dramatic and you're expecting a climactic conclusion...but then you get nothing.
