Den som dræber - Fortidens skygge

I found this movie when I was in Denmark, I followed the tv-drama and loved it!! So I guess I just had to buy it since it doesn't seem it will be out in Sweden for a while. And when it will be released I'll probably be in Canada!!
What can I say, I'll miss them all...
And it was fun to see Simon Kvamm, I used to watch him alot during my junior-high and high school days, however I'm more used to his comical acts and singing!!
The movie was different from what I expected, not as dark as the tv-drama and a surprising end.
Still happy I saw it, guess it'd be much more awesome to see it at the cinema, but good enough with a big tv ^^

I wish it wasn't the end... but that's how it is!!

Den som dræber

Last night they started to air the "new" Danish tv drama on Swedish television called "Den som dræber". (Swedish: Den som dräper, English: Those who kill)
The series is created by Elsebeth Egholm and Stefan Jaworski.

PLOT The series is about the hunt for a type of violent criminal who has yet to strike in Denmark, and who is surrounded by fear and mystique.

The series is starring Swedish actor Jakob Cedergren as Thomas Schaeffer, Laura Bach
as Katrine Ries Jensen and Lars Mikkelsen as Magnus Bisgaard.

The series was first broadcasted on Danish TV2 in March 2011 and now it's our turn in Sweden to follow the first season of this new drama, total of 10 episodes.
When it first was aired in Denmark it made the headlines because it's too rough and violent and it aired at 8pm, prime time, on TV2. Other Danish tv channels said it features "sexual behaviour" and "explicit violence" which would not be able broadcast on their channels at such early time.


I have to agree it's violent but the first ep was GREAT, this will be my new drama series to follow!
