I really enjoyed this film. When I began watching, and especially when the priest made his appearance, I thought this was going to be another ridiculous film with projectile vomiting, heads spinning, etc. Thankfully, it's not; it's actually got a very interesting plot and even delves, briefly, into theology and the concept of free will.
By today's standards the film is not particularly violent, but is nevertheless quite sinister when one considers the torment experienced by the host.
To my relief it doesn't have a 'Disney ending' and I believe there's scope for a sequel which I look forward to seeing. Highly recommended.

I have rated this film 7/10, but I'm honestly not sure I would recommend it to anybody. It left me feeling uneasy and a bit sad. However, is that not the hallmark of a good film? One that evokes strong feelings?
The film leaves some unanswered questions, such as what drove the protagonist to do what he did. Though, it is unclear if he even knows.
It is apparent that he has had some sort of a breakdown and that he is lonely. However, some of his actions don't fully make sense, but then perhaps they're not supposed to, to the rational mind. I think the bleakness of Scandinavia in what must be early spring or late autumn adds to the depressing ambience.
