Oooh... The Horror!


Just came back from watching "Fritt Vilt II", which is a norwegian horror-flick follow up to the original "Fritt Vilt" which came out in ...06 I believe. 

While the Horror-genre isnt exactly massively represented in the norwegian film industry,there is such a thing as a typical norwegian horror-flick. Almost all of the big ones are somehow related to our great norwegian nature, and the isolation that comes with the mountains and woods. 

Fritt Vilt is no expectation. 
The scene of the first movie was a gang of friends going snowboarding offpist, getting caught in a snowstorm and seeking shelter in a abandoned ski resort hotel. But they are not alone... OOoooOOoooOO...

Fritt Vilt II however actually played out in a, get this, small village near the mountains, and on the mountains. 
Almost broke free of the typical-stamp, but only almost.
But even if the movie is pretty clichè for being norwegian, it was pretty darn good, and a worthy follow-up from Fritt Vilt. 

Now Im looking forward to Død Snø.
From the makers of "Kill Buljo"! 
The premiere will be 09.01.2009 on Norwegian Cinemas. And now that we've finally gotten ourself a proper A-class cinema here in Hammerfest, I might even get to see it on the premiere date. Yay.
