The director Magne Steinsvoll has also been +involved in _Christmas Cruelty_ (2013) together with Per-Ingvar Tomren. This time +he's on his own, but delivers a solid and haunting ghost story set in the north +western part of Norway. + +_Killungard_ is a good old fashioned gjost story without relying on fancy effects. +The suspense is driven by the story, the performance of the actors and the visuals. +Especially Nina-Shanett Arntsen is a perfect casting for the role as Anniken. Where +effects has been used, they are done subtly and with great effect. A few nods to +other classics of the genre has also found it's way into the film. + +I first watched an early version of the film at the Ramasksik Horror Film Festival +in 2018. The DVD version that is out now has been recut and tuned a bit, and is a +much tighter and coherent film than what was presented then. + +All in all a great and at times creepy ghost horror story.
