The Russian Bride: Bis dass der Tod uns scheidet

A well thriller. A separated woman goes to marry a wealthy man at his home in America with her daughter after online dating. But later she realizes that he is not normal and behaving like psycho sometimes and has many suspense. When she realizes all the dark side of the castle then it is too late and she and her daughter have been totally trapped and no way to come out. That is the story. Starting portion of the movie is interesting and grip you to immerse into the story. Middle part is a little bit lengthy. But climax is very good, which you could not expect. This is the highlighted part of the movie. Acting by leading lady is well along with her daughter and her new hubby. Remarkable acting by both servants of wealthy man. Watchable for thriller lovers.

Nina is as bad ass as a Russian women can be, takes a while to get going but boy when it gets going it really gets going. One thing that annoyed me is the presence of a spirit that really did not need to be in the movie at all. The ending to this movie is sped up to 10 its viscious and glorious.

Plot has more holes than Sunderlands defence, and the acting is shocking.

A woman along with her daughter, comes to the the US with the hopes of finding a better life by way of being a mail order bride. While the home is large and clearly indicates her intended is a man of means, there is a cold and ominous atmosphere to the place. Something just isn't right but can she find out what is going on before it is too late?

Just finished this up and in my opinion, this is a decent film. The story is a bit shaky but it wasn't so bad that it took away from the film. The actors are not folk I'm familiar with and maybe they were a bit lacking but it wasn't awful.

The film moves along at a slow but steady pace and the there is decent tension throughout the film. The camera, audio and wardrobe were all well suited and the home was great.

For a lower budget film, it worked for me. Don't go into it expecting all the questions will have an answer. Simply take it at face value and try not over analyze it.

"The Russian Bride" may seem like some sort of generic Lifetime-style thriller/horror movie from the outside looking in. However, this movie contains a lot of strong performances from not only the three main leads, but the smaller supporting characters as well. Firstly, Corbin Bernsen does a stellar job as the coldly sociopathic Karl. Secondly, the performances by Oksana Orlan as mother Nina and young actress/model Kristina Pimenova as daughter Dasha are very well done, and the chemistry between the two of them makes their performances very believable. The role of Dasha made for a great start to young Ms. Pimenova's acting career, and I hope she continues acting whenever possible. Despite not being on screen nearly as much in this, in my opinion, she proved to me that she has the necessary talent and depth.

Adding to all this is the good writing, which allowed for just enough character development for the smaller supporting characters (especially the emotionally abused mute servant Hagen) for their performances to be passably believable as well.

My only regret is that I which Karl's backstory could've been explored a little bit more. Despite this, TRB is a really thrilling movie that is definitely worth watching.
