Sidste time

Although I shouldn't really comment too much on a film I haven't seen in many years, I still want to recommend this film to fans of horror movies. I remember all too well when I saw this in the theatre that I was totally "creeped" out.

The plot, as I remember it, concerns some kids who stay late at their school. For some reason they are locked in and there's someone in the school with them, killing them off one by one.

I remember very well the final plot point, and it was a bit of a disappointment, but up until then the film completely had me hooked, scaring me quite a bit. I recommend horror fans try and locate this film, as I will definitely do.

Nowadays Hollywood is remaking Japanese horror movies that continually disappoint. Maybe, since they can't have an original idea to save their life, they should check out more Scandinavian thrillers for a breath of fresh air.

I remember watching this movie in Berlin in 1995. I can't recall too many details, but I do remember that I was pleasantly surprised. It's a quite violent horror thriller that has a sufficiently intelligent plot along with the right amount of weirdness to really scare you. Sure beats all the American mainstream teenie-horror flicks that have been pouring out lately. This movies is a good example of the rising Danish film culture, it can hold its stake against "Nightwatch". See it if you get the chance!

This is an excellent Danish horror movie. The writer Dennis is a genius and basically a Danish Stephen King. His great imagination and humour shines through in the twilight zone type of plot. People who say this is a routine slasher that is absolutely not true. The movie is filled with great philosophy in the dialogue. It is even political in many ways and pre-figures both Saw and uncensored news. The movie is totally excellent and people who say bad about it simply fails to appreciate the philosophy of the movie.

The movie is about a tv-show which is called "Sidste time". It`s a documentary show that shows the cruelty and reality of the world. The host of the show, Micky Holm, are always trying to get the best real-life story before anyone else. Seven students is trapped in their school building. They sees Micky`s face on a tv-screen in their classroom with his show "Sidste time". He is filming outside the school. The students finds a dead body in the classroom and gets really scared. They`re trying to get out, but every door and window is closed. They screams and knocks on the windows, but no-one can hear them. Soon, they`re being killed one by one. But who is the killer? Is it one of the students? And what has Micky Holm to do with all this? The movie is really scary!!!! I still can`t understand it! It`s a bit confusing, but a great horror movie.

Yes, the Sidste Time's TV reporter wants a very big hit story. He is starting imagining... The students are arriving to the classroom. And in the end, when the last teenager girl is murdered, the TV reporter smiles. SO: he is only thinking! All of the horrific story is in his mind... But the plan will be turned into real life when the students arrives to the school. We don't know is anybody standing (or hanging) below the curtain but we can imagine that. A danish student told me the Sidste time is a big film in Denmark, and the story was published in book too.
