Marie is a beautiful and lonely 16-year-old who lives in an isolated village on a small island of the west coast of Denmark. Marie's mother is seriously ill, suffering from an unknown disease - on medication, mentally absent and tied to a wheelchair. Marie's father, Thor, runs the small grocery store and tries to make life as normal as possible for the small family. On the surface, everything seems fine - and yet, Marie can't help feeling that Thor is hiding something about her mother's illness. (forgalmazó hivatalos szövege)

It should go deeper into the minds of the characters (we don’t get to know much about them, actually), or push the envelope more with regards to blood and terror. As it is, the film is too vanilla and not disturbing enough; bland, I’d say. It’s too shallow for a depressive Scandinavian drama and too detached for a horror movie. I get the intention of bringing in the Låt den rätte komma werewolves, but it wasn’t successful.

This movie has an idea, it is original, minimalistic, even mesmerizing in a mystical way but without a soul, emotions or at least one moment where I would say that this movie deserves such attention. But given its premise it is surprisingly boring and no fun at all.

If Jonas Alexander Arnby had pushed the envelope at the end and given us a bunch of good and detailed gore scenes, the rating would have looked completely different. As it is, this is unfortunately a pretty slow, thankfully not boring horror drama with an interesting premise and a decent Nordic atmosphere, nothing more. Let the Right One In in is a whole other level in terms of atmosphere and storytelling. 60%.

When animals dream. Perhaps a piece of human liver or a village doctor. It’s a study of fears of the familiar, fears of the unknown, and the mist over the Jutland coast. The first two elements lack impact because the coming-of-age and horror aspects rely on classic methods and are somewhat sparing with emotions and psychology (with the exception of the parental farewell of the older Mikkelsen). The final voyage on the fishing boat Demeter confirms that even lycanthropic action won’t rely on gory showiness and leaves the viewer in a misty haze, guessing whether the heart will be struck by silver bullets or Cupid’s arrows.

What attracted me the most was the dense and oppressive atmosphere of the harsh north underlined by the excellent music. The dark romantic story shrouded in mystery also appealed to me a lot and the ethereal wild woman Marie was likable from the start, so despite some reservations about the horror ending, I rate the film quite highly.
