One of the best "Horror"-Movies ever. - @Friday, December 7, 2012 11:25 AM

Never, I repeat, never watch the heavily cut US version of this movie. Get the 2 hours long version; that´s the one!

A truly original masterpiece - @Friday, November 16, 2012 3:41 AM

@TheClarenceter the video didnt concern sweden but your previous comment did ''and to top it off you are Swedish''And you are probably too shallow to understand that not everyone can share the same opinion - @Saturday, February 18, 2012 2:03 PM

@TheClarenceter you know, everyone have their own opposite and it's nothing to be angry about. and are you some kind of racist to swedish people? because thats even worse then not like a movie. - @Saturday, February 18, 2012 1:40 PM

Worst trailer ever. Makes a masterpiece of modern cinema look like a dumb Hollywood horror flick. - @Thursday, January 15, 2009 10:50 AM
