For complete information about "The Thrill of a Kill", visit the films homepage at: http://www.thrillofakill.com/

It is available in both Norwegian and English language.

"The Thrill of a Kill" is an amateur/independent/underground - film from Trysil, in the deep forests of Norway, made by film-amateurs, for almost no money at all (only approx. $5000).

The film premiered at "Ramaskrik" horrorfilmfestival in Oppdal, Norway - on Friday 28th 2011, and was again shown on the big screen at Cinemateket in Oslo, Norway, in May and June of 2012. On June 6th 2012, Another World Entertainment released the film on DVD in Norway. Then in November of 2012 the film was screened at Oslo Fright Fest in Norway.

On January 22nd 2013, "The Thrill.." was released on DVD in Holland, and in June 2013 it will be released in the United States and Canada.

As the director of this movie I am very happy to see it have reached so far. We could never imagine this would happen when we started the shooting of the film, who actually was intended (in the beginning), to be only a short film of approx 20 minutes. But the story grew and grew and suddenly we had a full feature film in our hands. And kind of surprised, but very happy, we saw that the people at Another World Entertainmen really loved the film, and wanted to release it on DVD. And from then on, it`s been a great journey!

Of course such a film, made on a very, very low budget, and in a genre many people despise (exploitation), will be either hated or loved, and after reading reviews etc. for a year now, that is excatly what we see. Those who KNOW and ENJOY ultralowbudget exploitation/horrorfilms, seems to really like our film, but others might hate it, so the opinions are strong, and we really like that. :)

If you love, or hate the film, let us know. :) Thanks! We will try our best to improve everything in our next productions. :)

Best regards from the director
Lars-Erik Lie
