Though he'll likely always be best known as the editor of Michael Haneke's key works, Austrian film maker Andreas Prochaska had a surprise hit a couple years back with what I believe is the first ever Austrian slasher, Dead In Three Days. While it did little to break new ground the film was a solid little exercise in genre film making that took great use of its young cast and it's alpine setting. And now, like all good slasher directors, Prochaska has a sequel on his hands.
In the summer after Nina¹s graduation, her life changed forever. Three of her best friends became victims of a psychopath, herself and her best friend Mona just barely escaping death. Nina has now only one wish: to forget. She leaves her home town, breaks off all contacts and moves to Vienna to start a new life.Now, a year and a half later, only terrible nightmares remind her of the past. A disturbing and terrified call in the middle of the night from Mona, breaks her exile. Thinking it another dream, she tries to contact Mona, but she seems to have disappeared. Her cell phone number no longer exists, and the gas station which Mona¹s father had run has mysteriously closed down. The only remaining trace of her friend leads to Tyrol, to Mona¹s place of birth, and finally, to a lonely inn in the snow-covered mountains. The villagers avoid the place. They don¹t like the inn-keepers and numerous rumours circulate about the woman living there with her three grown sons. Despite all warnings, Nina heads for the mountains alone. It¹s her only chance of finding her best friend. However, what Nina finds at the inn is far more terrifying than the rumours suggest, plunging her into a new terror amid the inhospitable freezing snowscapes of the Austrian mountains.
The first teaser for this one has just arrived and you'll find it below the break in the Twitch Player.
