Book Rating

The synopsis of this book doesn't do it justice. This book is a magnificent thriller that I read in one sitting. Everything that a thriller requires in order to strike horror in the heart of a reader was included in this book.

Keeps you guessing

Good cast

All aboard!

I have to admit I haven't read the book, so can't compare the two. However as a thriller this is brilliant and definitely one of the best films of last year for me. It's gripping, raunchy, brutal and will have you on the edge of your seat for the whole ride!

Beautiful location

Lots of twists

A cool icy thriller

A weird but compelling thriller set in a small town near the Artic circle. After a body is found could the town have its first ever murder? A strong cast line up, against a beautiful scenic backdrop and an often bizarre story that will have you on the edge of your seat.

Movie Rating

An ok thriller, nothing new or ground breaking, reminds me a lot of another film I have heard of. It has a strong cast, pity Christopher Lee didn't get more screen time a Hammer favourite after all. It has it's creepy voyeuristic moments, but ultimately falls under a by the numbers obsession thriller. Worth checking out if you like thrillers of this type.

Decent Neo-Noir Thriller

This is an interesting film, with all the ingredients for a classic Neo-Noir Thriller. Unfortunately a few plot lines don't really add up by the end of the film. Despite a few unanswered questions the overall feel of the film is classy. If you're a fan of this style and story type, check it out.

Great cast

Great comedy thriller

A very good black comedy with a great cast in the lead roles. The main leads all have great chemistry between them with their characters. This has plenty of funny moments as well as a good thriller plot with a few twists along the way. It will put a smile on your face.
