Dark Woods II
Directed by Pål Øie1h 33m2015
An old sanatorium is deteriorating in an isolated forest in the mountains. Five contract workers have taken on the task of tracking the huge building for hazardous waste before it's demolished. They realize that the job is more than a search for asbestos and mercury when they encounter the building's frightening past. You can demolish a building, but never remove the past.
Our read: Dark Woods II (2015) reads as a heavy, steady, inventive horror entry — extreme in intensity, intimate in scope, cold in temperature, nihilistic in outlook.
Heavy, steady, extreme horror, inventive in texture. Nihilistic, intimate, cold.
