It is the sequel to the 2006 film Cold Prey (Fritt Vilt), and was written by Roar Uthaug and again stars Ingrid Bolsø Berdal in the leading role.
Jannicke (Berdal), the only survivor from the massacre depicted in the previous movie, is found in Jotunheimen and brought to a hospital in Otta.
Heedless of Jannicke's warnings, the officers enter the hospital and discover that the mountain man has knocked the basement door down.
As they move to leave the hospital, the mountain man springs a trap and kills all of them but Ole, Camilla's boyfriend, who is gravely wounded.
Jannicke comforts Camilla but turns to discover that the mountain man's body has disappeared into the woods, presumably headed towards his lair in the abandoned hotel.
After a brief and fierce struggle, the mountain man prepares to kill Jannicke, but he is suddenly shot in the back by the newly arrived Camilla.
Although Camilla assures her that he is dead, Jannicke retrieves her shotgun and fires it point blank into the mountain man's head.
[10] There were also lighter moments, with team members hiding in various rooms of the hotel where they were staying, doing their best to scare the others by jumping out wearing masks.
Morten Ståle Nilsen, writing for Verdens Gang, commented on the beautiful natural setting, and commended Berdal for managing to look both battered and sexy at the same time.
[2] Per Haddal in Aftenposten concluded that the film failed to scare its audience as much as it intended, but he nevertheless complimented the solid handiwork.
[13] The box-office success was largely the result of a massive marketing campaign in the weeks leading up to the movie's release.
