Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Benas Mcloughlin Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

romarblanc Taking into account the kind of cinema Bethmann has been doing, this one is the best. Nice camera shots, crisp image but above all two performances which save the movie: the ones given by Carsten Frank and Margarethe Von Stern; both steals the show.

victoryismineblast Germany. Dir: Andreas Bethmann. Special make up FX: Olaf Ittenbach A young paraplegic female student working on a school project finds herself drawn to an old boarded up house. Once she is within range of said house, she finds that she can inexplicably walk again for the first time in years. She decides to investigate the house and stays there for a few nights, becoming absorbed in a mystery that dates back to when Nazis ruled the country, as well as being haunted by a ghost. This is a decent enough haunted house movie from the Fatherland. The mood and atmosphere are set nicely, there are a few nude sex scenes and a bit of nicely done torture and gore. The flashback scenes are interesting and serve the plot nicely, though the Nazis are almost painted as caricatures of themselves. The movie is longer than it needs to be though, clocking in at 1:59, with a little too much "set-up" and filler. The ghost is also shown way too much, detracting from it's impact. The film does take a little while to get going as the middle act is kind of slow. All in all worth a watch if you can get your hands on a copy of it. It is very different from other German horrors that I have seen. 7/10
