Review of Villmark

Villmark (2003)
3/10
Horror-film mood, but no story
6 December 2005
"Villmark" is the first Norwegian horror-film in many years that actually works. It has all the ingredient a horror film should have, in regards of suspense and mood. Its weakness lies in the script. The story is basically to weak, and there are to many logical flaws. Here's an example: They're far in the forest, they find a dead body - and decides to wait with reporting it to the police, because it's to far to go back to the car to get a cellular phone. A few scenes later, one of the characters actually has a phone with him. There's are many more examples of these logical flaws. Its also difficult to understand the motivations of the characters.

However, when watching the film in the cinema, I wasn't the only one to jump in my seat a several times, and they manage hold the suspense throughout the film.
