Acting, cinematography, effects and everything else was pretty good. What absolutely slaughtered this movie was the writing. This movie is so full of plot holes, obviously bad decisions by characters, badly scripted characters and a terribly predictable plot.
The hotel and depiction of the post apocalyptic world drips with great production values, but it stumbles with its story telling.
Despite it's short run, the movie drags quite a lot in the first half and ends in an anticlimactic way.

I think this movie is one you will love or not. This isn't a slasher screaming teen movie - it takes watching and some ability to think a little.
The unusual story lends itself to the moody atmosphere of the production, with characters - excellently portrayed by the actors - that really suck you in to their world.
Well worth seeing.

Cadaver: The aftermath of a nuclear disaster in Norway, likely war. Things are bleak food is short, the city looks bombed out, there's a const gloomy fog/mist. A strange man arrives offering people food and entertainment in a local hotel. People are fed and an interactive theatre ensues. That's when reality becomes difficult to separate from the performance. People start to disappear, strange things happen. Some really horrific scenes as what is really going on becomes all too obvious. Not a totally original story but the execution gives it a fresh flavour. Some heavy handed allegories though and the running time could have been pruned. Once again a horror film which might have worked better as an episode of The Twilight Zone. Written and Directed by Jarand Herdal in his feature debut. On Netflix. 6/10.
It's one of those movies which you watch and you don't have opinion about it. I liked the main idea, it was something unusual and unique. The problem was how the main idea was fullfiled. It takes about 40-50minutes of whole movie just walking and seeing literally nothing. There's only 20minutes of action in the film which makes movie very boring. I won't talk about plot jumps, some nonsense scenes(there was a lot of them). I wouldn't recommend to watch it because there are many similar movies that are better than this, like "Get out" or "Us".
