This Norwegian haunted asylum flick was a take on the 2001 US movie Session 9. Unfortunately for Villmark 2, they failed horribly in that respect. Their attempt at a psychological horror fell flat. The plot was paper thin and never came together because it was never fully realized. What I did love about this movie was the setting. The isolation of the woods, the creepiness of the building, the atmosphere created by amazing visuals. I'm just not sure why the director didn't go another way with the movie. At the beginning, there was so much focus on the contaminated water supply, and I thought it would go the way of the crew contracting a disease from said water. (Think Cabin Fever only in an asylum). That would have been an amazing plot! A plot that actually made sense. But it veered off track at about the halfway mark and decided on a 'experiments gone wrong' angle. That is an angle that is incredibly cliche and so played out in so many other asylum/hospital horror movies. It just felt like lazy writing. And that was so disappointing when the movie had so much potential.

So. A bunch of cleaning personnel enters an abandoned asylum to do some stuff. Found a janitor or security guard still living there or something. Weird things happening. The location looks great. Rooms, halls, tunnels... One great scene near the ending. Girl found half-dead friend on a chair. Checked him out. Bad guy walking toward her from the back.... maybe like 2-3 meters away. She turned around, waited for the baddie to hold the tagging gun right on the middle of her forehead... like literally touch her forhead, assuming the tag gun couldnt shoot far. She closed her eyes... didnt try to run in the first place. Didnt try to deflect the gun. Just stood there. And no, its not the first time she saw some bad stuff happening in that place throughout the whole movie, so she wasnt taken by surprise. And i turned off my TV, wondering who wrote these kindda screenplay and thinking its perfectly rational.

Wow I never heard of this movie so I was pleasantly surprised. It's in German I think with English Subtitles, the script was fine not great but not cheesy. The Camera and directing was superb. I'll be going to see if part 1 was what this movie failed to pull off. I mean it was the best set up for a scary movie I think so far i've seen this year in 2016 and this movie released in 2015. I mean it showed so many different elements of the horror in this movie and it was shown very early in the movie. animals, kids,old people not to give too much away I was very impressed and pretty creeped out for the first half of the movie and it was a pretty long movie just under 2hrs & 15 minutes not saying I have a short attention span but I think it was a little drawn out and I thinking the end it just didn't add up enough and a lot of the characters purposes were not explained enough to give the movie good characterization which kind of spoiled the scary Ness at the end but I guess it was worth the watch didn't really surprise me at all so it definitely could of and should of been better. The cast was good actors and the women were attractive so I guess that helped. For a scary movie with subtitles I would recommend this and give a 6 out of 10 .. Creepy but don't over think it.

The 10 first minutes of the film, I just smiled. I all built up for good expectations, and I thought... wow... this one may be really good. But in the end, I was disappointed. A pretty straightforward horror-film, but unfortunately too much focus on deep, dark and eerie sound effects (Stormdrum2?)and a few good looking visuals that could not bear up the whole movie. Some camera visuals and angles of the old sanitarium was really nice, but after having seen those camera angles repeat a couple of times, without much of a good story, it became more and more obvious that the film builds around sound effects, and a few visual impressions. The story itself felt a bit too weak. The constant running and stumbling through watery tunnels and dark corridors becomes boring already 30% into the film. And it felt like the rest of the film was more or less the same thing. I waited all the time for a good story to unfold, but never really got that feeling. Film characteristics, compared to other horror films: Blairwitch project - running wildly in the dark. Alien - people equipped in environmental protections suits wandering dark corridors. The Shining - an old sanitarium looking very much like that big eerie hotel. About the actors: They did an OK job, but couldn't save the film and the thin story as a whole from a low grade. Summary: Would I recommend this as being an OK horror film to watch if you have nothing better to do? Not really.

Imagine Death Ship (2002) and Session 9 (2001) blended together. My favorite part of the film was the beginning. The story begins immediately. You get brief introductions to the characters and learn more as things progress. Nicely filmed, directed, and the acting was fine. Locations interior and exterior were well utilized. The first half of the film does keep you guessing a little - trying to figure out exactly what type of film this will be. The second half of the film continues through well-trodden territory with NO surprises. Apparently, this was sold as a sequel. I haven't seen the first film, but it doesn't seem to be referenced at all. This movie is it's own thing. Not original at all....but a decent creepy sanatorium crawl.

FYI if you can't suspend disbelief for an hour or two (as evident in the low ratings), don't bother watching horror movies. This was very well done. The pace is perfect. It keeps you guessing just enough, but not so much that you lose interest 30 minutes in. It's like, Is everyone seeing ghosts? Or going insane? Is it hallucinations? Is that person up to something? I dunno if I trust her. Wtf is that?? Who is that supposed to be! It's good enough I didn't catch myself perusing memes during it. For one, abandoned insane asylum? Yea alright. Two, gorgeous scenes and a beautiful giant building falling apart? Uh, ya. In the absolute middle of nowhere mountain forest with an old bomb siren and creepy caretaker? I'm in. Cliché, maybe. But again, relax and pretend you're in for the ride and not to pick it apart. Maybe it's been done a bunch before, but that's because it works. There are locations, people and situations that are just inherently scary. Look past it and enjoy yourself.

The scenery in movie is very good. Old sanitarium in the middle of woods, just wilderness around. They could do very good movie but characters in this movie are dumb & stupid. I know director gave them such roles, but they made really stupid and suicidal decisions, so you don't care for them, you don't really care for selfish, low IQ idiot without back story and those actors are doing exactly decisions than any sane person would call idiotic, stupid, selfish.. So in all this stupidity you don't care much when someone get killed, I almost felt relief when some character was executed. Almost. So if director do such movie that you almost not care for main characters then its director's sanity to be questioned ;) All in all movie is watchable, and actors did well, even if characters they played had really confused, idiotic scripts, so you can not blame actors really, but with such wasted plot movie lost at least 50% its potential...If villains in movies are strong and movie characters did intelligent decisions yet some of them got killed then you feel really sorry, but if they are dumb...not really ! I cannot help but to feel angry on those characters cause none of them really tried to organize and connect the group, I am sure they could fight villains much more effectively with much less dead if they stayed together, but in whole movie literally all of them just keep running behind some ideas in mind and their teammates simply don't exists when they chase their ideas. .Also I hated the end, I like horror movies, but I don't like depressed movies, and end was just..cannot help but think that director of movie might be some depressed guy, with alcohol and relationships issues, I just got that feeling after watching. Why there don't exist "depressed" for genre, if exists action, thriller, comedy, horror, adventure, drama - so there should be also something like "depressed" genre, at least for this movie. 5/10

If your looking for a story to sink your teeth into, this wouldn't be the one to watch. Uninspired plagiarist garbage taken from an older film called "Session 9" released in 2001, which stars David Caruso,Stephen Gevedon,Paul Guilfoyle,Josh Lucas,and Peter Mullan. Why this film crew thought people wouldn't notice is beyond me, the whole plot of a cleaning crew removing hazardous waste before demolition is identical to Session 9. They may have changed some elements of the film, but the foundation is taken from the solid script of Session 9. It makes me angry that people do this, instead of cashing in on an eerie topic such as an abandoned creepy building, why don't they save their money and produce something of originality? There are so many garbage films like this, that don't deserve the light of day, and to be blunt, these people need a real kick in the a$$. As a viewer I don't condone plagiarist material such as this, in fact it's just completely ignorant, to the people they stole this idea from. There is a way at hinting at other great films, but copying the whole structure of an older film is utter rubbish, and exactly where this film belongs! Final verdict, don't waste your time, go watch Session 9 if you haven't seen it, it's a way better film than this garbage. 1 out of 10 for me.
