The Devil's Chair (2007)

The Devil’s Chair: Directed by Adam Mason. With Andrew Howard, Pollyanna Rose, Olivia Hill, Nadja Brand. With a pocketful of drugs, Nick West takes out his girlfriend Sammy, for a good time. When they explore an abandoned asylum, the discovery of a bizarre device, a cross between an electric chair and sadistic fetish machine, transforms drugged-out bliss into agony and despair. After Sammy is brutally assaulted and murdered by unseen forces, Nick becomes the number-one suspect. Years pass and Nick, who had been locked up in a mental hospital, is released into the care of eminent psychiatrist Dr. Willard, who is hell-bent on exposing the truth behind the killing. Accompanied by Dr. Willard and several of his students, Nick returns to the scene of the crime. However, the decrepit asylum hides a blood-drenched secret.

“Iu0026#39;ve been waiting for someone to make a good series about the vikings. Iu0026#39;m from Norway myself, and Iu0026#39;m naturally interested in our history. Iu0026#39;ve only seen two episodes so far, but I have to say – it really looks promising. The surroundings and nature in the two first episodes is exactly how it looks in u0026quot;Vestlandetu0026quot;, the western parts of Norway. Stunnings fjords with waterfalls cascading down the sides. It really looks authentic.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe acting is mostly top notch, a few short scenes arenu0026#39;t that great but itu0026#39;s hardly mentionable. It seems like in the beginning, people are speaking an incomprehensible Norse/English mix, and then they continue speaking a modern English. Itu0026#39;s pretty clever actually. Fun fact: When the Vikings invaded the British isles they could understand each otheru0026#39;s languages.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe story itself is really exciting, and I just want to watch more.. I can hardly wait for the next episode to be released. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI donu0026#39;t know so much about the Ragnar Lodbrok character, but Rollo (Gangarolf) is a very famous character in the Norse sagas.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI highly recommend this show, and I really hope they continue making this for several seasons.”
