Repetition exercise in Danish.

That doesn't have to be a big deal, if it weren't for the fact that the makers don't shy away from clichés.

Richter is quite nice, but also drowns a bit in the story that goes off the rails. There could have been much more to this. Enough atmosphere and suspense at least. The ending is extremely bland and far too Hollywood, which does not benefit the film.

Reasonable.

Agree with what is said above.

The story is such a cliché that the film really has to rely on atmosphere alone. I sometimes wonder what inspires certain script writers to write the same stories over and over again. There is really nothing, absolutely nothing original in this.

Fortunately, the atmosphere is not too bad. The setting is atmospheric, some beautiful shots every now and then and the film is also nicely constructed. I'm starting to notice that I'm starting to find that nobody believes him/her more and more annoying in these types of films, so this is dragging on a bit too long for my liking.

We've all seen it 100 times, but the harsh atmosphere makes it still enjoyable. Anyone who only watches these types of films for the fascinating story should stay as far away as possible, but in terms of atmosphere it is quite okay.

3.0*

A nice film, which mainly manages to survive thanks to a strong atmosphere.

Because the story certainly cannot be called original. It's very reminiscent of Stir of Echoes. But anyway, it's all okay to get through. The setting is very nice, although films that largely take place in the snow have an advantage in my opinion.

The camera work is neat and tidy and the acting is fine. Furthermore, the characters all seem believable and it is nice that for once there is no annoying agent or psychologist to be found in a horror.

The final denouement is not exactly surprising and it could have been a little less well-behaved here and there, but otherwise Cecilie does very little wrong, and that is perhaps the biggest plus of all.

3.0*
