a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

-Rage: Midsummer's Eve (2015) movie review: -I am going to make this quick. Rage: Midsummer's Eve is a generic horror film about a group of young adults who go to a creepy house and there's death and bad things and stuff.-The story has been done to death, -The film took forever to start and didn't pick up that much until the last third.-None of the acting is anything better than any other film like this.-The characters were all horror stereotypes minus the black guy.-I did not pay attention to the music because none of it stood out to me.-Nothing else in this film is original or better than cliché in any way. Therefore, Rage: Midsummer's Eve is not worth seeing. Ever.

The idea of making horror movie in broad daylight is great! And when you add that all this is happening in Finland (where I'd love to visit) the movie really makes difference. I've heard a lot nice things about Lapland and the white nights during summer time.The places in the film are really authentic and scary. The production design is just amazing. And it was nice to see new and talented actors. I liked that the main character is female. Holly Georgia does great as Hannah.I recommend this film for all horror fans. And also those who are interested in Finland!

The movie was released on Video On Demand this week Friday the 6th of March, 2015. I found this film when a friend sent me a link to the trailer and from there I went to the films official website. From there I rented the film and decided to watch it since I was snowed in at my mom's house and bored out of my mind. The film is set in the Finnish Arctic Cirle and although it has a very generic set up of a group of friends taking a trip into the wilderness of the Nordic regions of the country, I have to say the set up did not annoy me. The shots where very beautifully done and having a set of new and fresh actors made it interesting to watch. I am more of gore fan and usually get annoyed about psychological horror flicks, but I have to say the director did a pretty good job in keeping the intensity and horror, as the entire film is shot during daylight. The director's idea was to make a horror film during the Nordic Midsummer when the sun does not set for a period of almost 2 weeks in the summer. This I found to be a very cool set up. I hope to see more films being approached in this kind of manner; meaning coming up with new ways to set up the horror in horror. I liked it and I wish it could have been a bit longer. There a few things that I was hoping to see more of but other than that Rage - Midsummer's Eve is a definite film to watch. It has a fresh feel to it and since it's a Finnish and American co-production I think there is a good balance of both world's. So good job Ricks and look forward to seeing more.

The Arctic Circle based Rage: Midsummer's Eve looks like any other, high production value horror film made in a America. But this isn't shot in the US and it isn't a traditional American horror film. Set in the Finnish Arctic Circle the film starts up with the traditional set up five people leaving on the holiday. This time it isn't a bunch of high school students traveling to a lake house to meet their destiny, but a bunch of adults and highly educated people whom decide to take a trip to the Finnish countryside to celebrate Midsummer's Eve: An old festival to celebrate the longest day of the year, Summer Solstice. They even make a nice joke regarding the traditional set up of a summer cottage right by the lake.The director, cinematographer and basically the whole camera crew are American and British so the film looks like any American horror would look like. The actors, whom are all doing their biggest roles so far on this one, do a nice job. There is no "scream your lungs out" kind of reactions, or people crying hysterically to make things look more scary. The directing and the acting makes sure that people will keep their eyes on the screen, and the scares and the tension will keep you alarmed through out the film.
