An abandoned sanatorium is deteriorating in a remote forest in the mountains. The building is going to be demolished, and five contractors have taken on the task of inspecting the enormous building for hazardous materials. While attempting to shut off the water, they are led into a dark basement labyrinth. They soon find themselves face to face with the sanatorium's gruesome past. You can demolish a building, but never remove the past. (Warner Bros. Entertainment)

I’m sorry, but this wasn’t good. I liked the first Villmark very much – Skjutl was scary at times, but he was limited by the script – but in the sequel, Pål Øie delivers only solid visuals and the attractive setting of an abandoned psychiatric hospital. I honestly believe that this film was made because the creators found a scary building, went there on a one-week holiday with a bunch of actors (half of them would play victims, the other half ghosts) and, without any thought, wit, purpose or script filmed SOMETHING in one go. In short, the second Villmark is a mind-numbing, aimless walkabout through an abandoned building that was shot with professional equipment, i.e. it looks nice at first sight, but it soon becomes clear that nobody bothered too much with the more important things. My God! It wasn’t even atmospheric, which in a setting like that it’s an achievement. I wanted to scream hilfe (another thing: those shuffled letters, I’d really love to know in what moment the viewers are supposed to put them together according to the creators).

Villmark 2 wants to be Cold Prey. The sanatorium is a fairly wholesome place to hang out, unfortunately Pål Øie is emasculated and doesn't have the courage to venture out, so we get an hour of boredom, followed by thirty minutes of chasing, but it lacks both punch and power. In places the director manages to conjure atmosphere, the bad guy looks fine, but unfortunately has very poor killing tools, which seems to have robbed us of some juicy gore. More interesting than the first part, but still boring. At least it's nicely shot. 55%.

Dark Woods 2 is a Norwegian production that dropped the found footage form that was used to some extent in the first movie. This time around, the concept is slightly different, though again, we have to follow a group around who are trying to survive in a dangerous environment, though none of them really know why. Plot-wise, it is not surprising, although, in terms of atmosphere and setting, Villmark 2 may well please fans of the horror genre.
