Aika tappaa

So many things in this movie were just so wrong. Acting were either lame or hammy and Tapio Liinoja were involved only due involvement of his daughter on this project. Scenes at police department were clearly shot in some school facilities. Scene where twitching dead girl appearing is so absurd and is done on so many direct to DVD/video horror movies before that made me laugh. Scene happening at 1935 were just so wrong: suits with modern cuts and shoulder toppings wrong hairstyles and I do not believe that Jussi-sweaters even existed in 1935. Audio track were partly non-audible and musics were too loud in comparison. Watching this is waste of time and sanity.

This DVD cost me about 3.99 euros and I'll tell you this right now.. I was ripped off. The story is stupid and at the very least not believable in the Finnish setting. A serial killer? I think there's been one serial case in the whole recorded history of this country. And still, the script was plain awful and full of bad dialogue, the actors were seriously bad and the story went nowhere. The only actor who could with a clear conscience be even called that, Tapio Liinoja, seems fittingly bored in the whole two scenes he has in the film. To sum it all up, this movie is just dreadfully boring and badly made. I read from the only previous comment on this film by another user, that the picture quality was excellent. Were we watching the same DVD?! It's horrible. Most of the scenes that take place at night are lit so badly you can hardly see what's even going on. And that includes the "massive and surprising" final showdown. Aki Louhimies made Levottomat as his graduation piece from film school. I think it's quite safe to say that this is nowhere near that effort. Avoid.
