Disappointing

I watched this movie shortly after having watched "Død Snø" (Dead Snow), one of the coolest Norwegian movies ever, so this was somewhat of a disappointment. Don't get me wrong, this movie is not an utter complete waste of time. It is in itself alright, I just had my hopes up.

The story is pretty straight forward, no real deep plot or innovative things going on here. That is one of the disappointments. The movie lacks something that makes it stand out from other movies.

The acting is mediocre, and the dialogue is next to non-existent. The images and scenery is nice, except for the parts where they made it like the movie breaks down on the movie rolls. What was that all about? A word of warning, this movie might offend some people in the audience, as it is fairly graphical and explicit. There are some pretty rough scenes in the movie that may not be suitable for the easily offended.

Having watched this movie, I must say that I was left with somewhat of a hollow feeling afterward. Something profound was missing from this movie. It did have potential, but didn't punch through properly. If you like extreme movies that are a bit "out there", this might fall into your liking.

Now, approaching the movie from a low-budget creation way, it was actually nicely put together. That was somewhat of a good achievement. They took whatever meager fundings and props they had and utilized it for maximum effect. Hats off for that.

The movie is in Norwegian and Danish language, so it will be gibberish to most non-Scandinavians. But subtitles are a blessing here.
