Försvunnen (2011)
A Swedish The Hitcher
4 September 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Went into the cinema with a very open mind, and was pleasantly surprised! The movie starts out with Malin (Sofia Ledarp) moving from her hometown. During her road trip she starts to feel uncomfortable as she is followed by a strange man (Bergqvist). One night Malin is kidnapped and this starts a battle for survival.

That is pretty much it. But I was on the edge of my seat most of the film. You are never quite sure if Malin is going to make it or not. You can tell the filmmakers are huge horror fans - a genre not very common in Swedish films.

There are some flaws, though. The film takes a while to really get going and maybe there are one too many forrest vistas. But overall, if you want some classic tension then give this film a shot!
