A Norwegian slasher flick that dares to take the tired formula and change nothing about it, yet still strives to make a quality film.
There's really no surprises here or anything amazingly original. However, the script neither insults the audience's intelligence or lets the characters do anything really dumb like most slasher movies seem to do all too often.
The setting is effectively creepy and isolated, which makes for some great tension. A welcome surprise is that the cast can actually act, never really letting their performances fall into standard slasher flick cardboard cutouts.
I'm not necessarily recommending it...I'm just telling it how it is.
