Featured reviews
There are some issues with the movie though. I didn't like the random time jumps in the first 60% of the film. And the third act is a let down. The movie also aims for some kind of commentary on society's fascination with violence, which it telegraphs with pictures of the Roman Coliseum: I didn't think this message really got through.
It takes a while to get going, despite the mix of events happening in real time and flashback. Two gas station attendants working the night shift are terrorised and subjected to various brutal horrors, and their isolation is well realised by Director Søren Juul Petersen.
What follows is an entertaining ride, with a fair bit of gore thrown in. The nature of the horror would be to drift into spoiler territory. The situation is not a new one, and might have been conveyed more stylishly than here, but I enjoyed this ride, especially as I didn't know which way events would turn. My score is 7 out of 10.
