Unsettling events engulf young and ambitious Johan and his friends when they visit the abandoned Black Lake ski resort, the scene of a horrific crime. Remote and neglected, Black Lake has been closed for years when Johan invites his friends to stay there. He dreams of reopening the isolated hotel and restoring it to former glories, but what begins as a fun research trip soon takes a sinister turn. On the very first night, Johan's girlfriend, Hanne, is woken by a sickening thudding noise coming from the cellar. The landlord refuses to let them investigate. It turns out the resort was closed after a family were found dead, strangled. One by one, members of the group wake with bloodshot eyes following nightmares of being strangled. With fear and danger spiralling, Hanne becomes convinced that supernatural forces wish them ill. Who can be trusted? Who will survive? (HBO Europe)

The Scandinavians have some amazing locations at their disposal. When they use them to their full potential, it can make up half the movie’s or show’s overall quality. That was the case with this show. I didn’t think it was any bad and it certainly didn’t make me feel as conflicted as some of the other reviewers feel. I didn’t even have any issue watching the entire show and enjoying the ending. The problem lies somewhere else – the script. It has an amazing premise; a thriller plotline with a pinch of mystery, located in an isolated hotel in Lapland with not a soul in sight for miles and miles. The atmosphere reminded me of the legendary Shining. The issue comes with the flow. The producers are toying with a horror aspect a little bit and so you’ll see a whole range of ridiculous situation. It’s almost as if the characters all had room temperature IQ and you come to accept that the producers had to steer it towards some direction or another. After all, to find out that the hotel is haunted and then leave in episode 2 wouldn’t exactly help the story (even if it was the logical thing to do). Somewhere along half of the season, the show started to drag more than shows tend to. And that’s saying something considering that dragging plotlines is quite a standard practice in shows. Overall, Black Lake did leave a good impression on me. The open ending hints at a sequel, which I wouldn’t be against because the ending was so convincing that it would be a shame to leave it alone.
