Dear english spoken only: Stick to the Hollywood horror

[deleted]

I don't speak a word of Danish & I loved the movie.

I am American, born and bred, but I fully appreciated this wonderful movie. As a matter of fact, the first copy I saw had English voice-overs that completely ruined the flow of the movie. I was fortunate to find a copy with English subtitles that allowed me to enjoy the natural flow of the movie, as it was meant to be seen and heard. I have to agree with you about the garbage that Hollywood is calling horror nowadays. Either they copy some of the new and imaginative concepts from beyond our shores, or they give us horrible "slasher" movies with no creative feel to them at all. Since I try to see all the new horror movies that are from outside of America, I am immediately aware when our directors have copied a new concept from "overseas". It always saddens me that so many of my fellow Americans are sucked into seeing these American remakes without knowing that with just a little effort, the original movie can be enjoyed. I can only hope that if our directors see enough of the creative and unique movies coming from outside of our country, they may be spurred to develop some new concepts of their own.


Experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the inner mind to...The Outer Limits

french horror make the danish look like Canada.

you hear that? it's our song.

I am sorry to offend but this is Hollywood Horror with danish subtitles..Just like "Hollywood" Horror wasn't frightened and wasn't impressed

Yeaaaaah... I'd wager the overwhelming majority of horror fans outside of English dominant countries don't speak Danish. Unless you care to argue that it is a particularly common language in Japan, South Korea, and even places closer to home such as Italy. Your attempt at labeling is pathetic and outright bigoted, as language(and by extension the blatantly implied country in the U.S.) has nothing to do with this in the slightest.

And I really want to know what world you are living in where people are defending Hollywood crap fests, that you seem to think naming terrible movies is in anyway a defense. Particularly in the realm of horror where independent and foreign(in relation to Hollywood) films are virtually always heralded as superior to their "main stream" counterparts.

You have invented a ridiculous nationalist excuse to defend the film that addresses none of the actual issues whatsoever. Love that classic anti-American hypocritical bigotry rearing its head. "Oh, this movie is Danish, and these people don't like it! But I enjoyed it, therefore these people must be Hollywood loving English-only speaking idiots! Nevermind issues with the acting, plot development, or other legitimate complaints."

(And for the record, I'm not even criticising the film. I simply take issue to this ridiculous defense at criticism that was made by others.)

(Edit: Before posting I had reworded the first paragraph a bit and accidently included Australia and New Zealand, who have released some great horror films, in the list of non-english dominant countries. Clearly that is idiotic and was an accident. :D)

I really enjoyed the movie and thought the cinematography was great. What ruined it for me was the horrendous dubbing of the English language. I’d rather have read subtitles than listen to and watch the butcher job someone did with the dubbing. The gore wasn't any different than a typical Hollywood movie, either. B-movie like gore. Fun and bloody. No difference.

Det er en lortefilm.

This movie is a piece of crap by any standard. But if you enjoy it, that's great. But you don't need to be calling all other types of movies crap.

The blood, and the way people dying has nothing to do with why this movie is crap.

It's a crappy story, It's crappy, unrealistic dialog, it's crappy acting.

It's just a crappy movie.

(And I am danish, speak danish and generally like danish movies.)
