The debut feature from Danish director
Ole Bornedal, Nattevagten is a psychological thriller starring Nikolaj
Coster-Waldau. While a serial killer is on the loose, brutally murdering
several prostitutes, college-student Martin (Coster-Waldau) takes
a job as the night watchman at the local mortuary in order to pay
his law-school tuition. As it turns out, the bodies of the victims
are being stored at that very mortuary. When Martin takes a bet
that involves tampering with the bodies, he suddenly finds himself
a suspect in the case. Bordenal, who also wrote the script, later
remade Nattevagten in Hollywood under the title Nightwatch. |
