Konferensen (2023)
Finally a great swedish slasher
"The Conference" is a movie that takes place in the woods where a group of people go on a conference. The movie starts off as a typical corporate drama, but things quickly take a turn and it becomes a slasher.
The movie features some really good actors and good scenography. The music is well fitted and the style of the movie becomes a mix between dark comedy and a movie by Lars Molin. Kind of two movies in the same package.
The plot is well-crafted, even if the "twist" was a bit easy, and the characters are well-developed.
The director, Patrick Eklund, does an excellent job of building atmosphere throughout the movie. The cinematography is also impressive.
Overall, I would give "The Conference" an 8 out of 10. It's definitely worth watching if you're a fan of horror movies.
American Psycho II: All American Girl (2002)
Great comedy
This movie is simply a great little piece of work. It's a comedy and comedy only! The acting is OK and the music is hilarious. Get it people, it's a FUNNY movie, kind of a mixture between Scream and Clueless - nothing more. Smart asses comparing this with classic horror movies knows nothing about this genre...
Problems?
It's only problem is that it has taken the name from another comedy called "American Psycho", a movie that a lot of people tries to understand but no one does. What's so great about that film anyway?

Ong-Bak (2003)
Incredible Stuff
This movie is simply incredible. The lead guy is like a cartoon with all his moves and flips, and the action is hard like a rock. No tricks what so ever... Except that I suspect that some of the actors (counterparts) had a wig to cover a protection device on the head. Otherwise they should be dead by now :-)
This movie is so great so even if I dont' understand a single sentence in Thai, I love the movie. Actually it's equal to Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, but REAL!
See it or regret that you missed it for eternety...

Livet i 8 bitar (2002)
Misleading
This movie was ok, but the title is a bit misleading. 60% of the movie has nothing to do with computer games at all!
Some references are cool but the CGI in the movie STINKS! Perhaps the cute little 3D-guy (looks like a modern Paperboy city really) is cool but the Tekken-styled fight is just awful.
*SPOILERS AHEAD* Some questions arise - why did he play Nintendo 64 all day, if the tournament was about Track & Field 2 on the NES???
In the end, why did they choose the Jaguar in that competition - one of the lamest consoles ever, no cult status at all. The correct machine is called Atari 2600 folks... That would have been a much happier ending ;-)
5 out of 10...
Little Nicky (2000)
Funny and well done
This movie is metal... I like almost everything about it, except that Nicky himself could have done without the "face" and the "voice".
The dog is too cool, and Ozzy is god (as we have always known).
See it! 8/10...
The Thing (1982)
The best
This is simply the best horror movie there is! I saw it at the cinemas in the early eighties and I was in shock! This movie was stunning, and it's been my favourite since then ("American Werewolf in London" comes close :o)
Since then I have probably seen it ten times, but it's not until now I have bought the dvd. I love it! The gory effects is still today VERY good, and the suspense and danger is more chilly than ever.
Thanks John Carpenter for this masterpiece!
Crosstalk (1982)
Not so good
This movie was not as good as I hoped for, kind of a Wargames for grown up. Sometimes the story is rather confusing and the bitter end is just there to fit into the 80's focus of AI...
The movie was more like a play, with no other actors than the one that was involved in the story.
Although it gave me some nice moments.
