![]() Not sure what the budget was on this film, but they sure managed to make use of the beautiful landscapes that they were filming. There are a few wide panning shots showing the mountains and snow banks that are breathtaking. Of course, it always makes me wonder why someone would want to vacation there, but that’s just me. I’m happy with seeing them in movies!Īnother high point of this film is the visual effects department. This is one of those films that you really don’t see where the visual effects department was even used. Sure, they may through in a little digital blood spurt every now and then. But when you watch the behind-the-scene sequence on the DVD, you will be amazed at what they do here. From something as simple to erasing dog shit in the snow, to taking off the running mascara off one of the leads because of continuity, they are amazing. They also show us how they can change the color scheme, bleeding some of the light and color out to make it look more effective. It’s one of those things that the viewer takes for granted, but have no idea the kind of work these people are doing. Major kudos to them. But he manages to bring that same tension and suspense even in the brightest of snow covered mountains. ![]() We really feel for her during this movie.ĭirector Uthaug does a very satisfying job of building suspense and tension throughout this film. With long darkened hallways, underground passageways, into even darker basement, is the perfect place for these types of suspenseful sequences. Viktoria Winge also does a superb job here as well. She is the one that takes control of the situation and is one strong character. Ingrid Bolsø Berdal plays our heroine and does a fantastic job here. But director Uthaug and his small cast give us enough suspense and great characters that we easily fall into the story that is unfolding before us. Even when the ending is revealed, which is no surprise to the viewer it’s even a little confusing as to why the events of the prolog had happened. But I think that is where the strong point of this film lays, that even though it’s not original or makes much sense, the film still plays well enough to keep you entertained. And that is what it’s all about. But not here and not with director Uthaug. A simple story that in the wrong hands, would just be another dime a dozen slasher films. This film is a perfect example of where you can have a story that isn’t the most original in concept, but is filmed in a way that it’s still very entertaining. The film deals with a group of people head off to a mountain to do some snowboarding. After one of them breaks his leg, they make their way to an abandoned hotel for the night. But once they are there, they realize they are not alone. Uh oh.Starring Ingrid Bolsø Berdal, Rolf Kristian Larsen, Tomas Alf Larsen, Endre Martin Midtstigen, Viktoria Winge, Geir Olav Brath It turns out this lodge belongs to a serial killer. However, when one of them is injured, they must seek refuge in an abandoned lodge. We meet Berdal’s character, Jannicke, in Cold Prey, who go snowboarding off the trail in the Norwegian mountains. Similar in fashion to Halloween and Halloween II, Cold Prey tells it story based on a 48-hour period and across the now two films. Ingrid Bolso Berdal starred in the 2008 horror film, Cold Prey 2: Resurrection, which is a sequel to Roar Uthaugu’s 2006 film, Cold Prey. Whether or not people appreciated the manner in which the story was presented, there seems to be another horror movie franchise that hoped to take the world by storm in a similar fashion when it first came out. Recently, a continuation of John Carpenter’s Halloween was released and it made a name for itself regardless of the movies that came before it. And while the future of her Westworld days is unknown, in the past she tapped into a completely different genre–horror. And we fell in love with her relentless ways, and ability to kick ass at any given moment. Ingrid Bolso Berdal was a force to be reckoned with as Armistice on Westworld season 2. By Ariba Bhuvad 4 years ago Ingrid Bolso Berdal starred in a Norwegian slasher inspired by the John Carpenter iconic horror film franchise, Halloween.
