I killed her.

Warning: Spoilers
If you love a great Swedish horror film with a great sound track, wonderful special effects and an all-star cast with subtitles, this isn't it. Okay, I am just kidding about the subtitles, it has those. I think you got the idea, Erland, 50th birthday, discovers that he is trapped in a film that was made by guys who took their costumes when they were fired from the Renaissance Fair.

The acting was bad....were those hand puppets? The skull prop made a "I am made of plastic" sound when rubbed. That is why you need a sound guy. The creature look and sounded like it was made of paper mache with a PVC pipe for a bone. Was that some blood "Hellraiser" type thing? Even the car looked and sounded bad.

1 hour movie that felt like it was 3 hours long.

The biggest problem with this movie is the camerawork almost every scene is shot with one camera angle. And the acting is horrible the main character has zero emotions. The monster was easily killed but you might say but the monster spread like zombies! But is not scary because nobody is scared of zombies and they are often easily killed in the books and movies they are in. And that is the reason why i give this movie one star it failed on every level.
