The Valhalla Murders plot

Arnar, an Oslo detective with a painful past, reluctantly travels from Copenhagen to Reykjavik to help investigate a case of Iceland's first serial killer. It concerns a brutal series of murders in which older men are brutally abused and slaughtered. Arriving in Iceland, Arnar is paired up with Senior Inspector Kata, who is not happy with his involvement. The murders don't seem to have much in common at first, but then the duo discover that the murders are related to an abandoned orphanage for boys, Valhalla. And in Valhalla 35 years ago terrible crimes took place...

The Valhalla Murders season 1

The main story and acting was very good. But unfortunately the details in this kind of series get a bit monotonous and trite. Policemen who perform solo actions and get beaten again and again, perpetrators who rarely end up in jail but either commit suicide or sneak out. And then I'm not even talking about the worries that all those detectives have in their private lives. Also pretty standard is the poorly worked out slot. Also in this series from start to finish the same tenor. The creators of this look too much alike. I'm still waiting for a crime series that is just 'to the point', without all those side issues and without the many stupid police actions.

The Valhalla Murders season 1

Excellent Nordic Noir from Iceland. Scandinavian thrillers are (almost) never bad, but the quality has lost a bit over the years. It looks a lot alike. If The Valhalla Murders had been first in line (instead of, say, The Killing), the rating would have been much higher. That is not true. But we can really enjoy it. From the good acting, the stunning landscapes and the surprising scenario and plot, with an twist and turn here and there. S2 may come, I had a great time.
