    Redefinition of "empty trash"!

    Unbelievably stupid rich bitch (Sofie Gråbøl) and her reckless friend (Ellen Hillingsø) get involved with a mysterious cult and, erm...well, that´s it, really! Sofie looks great in the buff, but her character is so abrasive and obnoxious that you really don´t care whether she´ll escape the mind-controlling secret society or not. Besides, her personal life is already controlled by her dominating wheelchair-bound mother-in-law to be (Ghita Nørby) to a degree that it wouldn´t make a difference, anyway. Deadly slow pace, one-note performances (especially among the cult members) and a predictable, stupid script kill this one. Ulrich Thomsen appears briefly as a suicidal cult member. Director Bier should stick with romantic comedies. *½ (of ****)

    very good! one of the best nordic thrillers ive seen!

    This is a very interesting film. A girl/woman sees her best friend get sucked into some strange cult where the leader gets total control over the members, and tries save her from this living hell.

    The movie is fast and exciting, and the music is excellent. The acting is good, as well as the look of the film.

    I give it 8 out of 10

    A nightmare!!!

    This film gave me the creeps - for all the wrong reasons. A nightmare to sit through and truly creepy in how boring a so-called "thriller" can be.
