In 2019, a remake named Lake of Death was released written and directed by Nini Bull Robsahm.

Crime author Bernhard Borge and his wife Sonja, psychoanalyst Kai Bugge, magazine editor Gabriel Mørk, lawyer Harald Gran and his fiancée Liljan Werner are six Oslo people who will visit Bjørn Werner (Liljan brother) in his cabin deep in the Østerdal forests.

But, when the guests arrive, Werner is missing and his dog is found dead at a lake nearby.

It's not long before they begin to ponder the old legend associated with the place: a man is said to have killed his sister and her lover and then drowned himself in the lake.

"[2] The success of De dødes tjern was a turning point in Norwegian cinema, becoming director Bergstrøm's breakthrough film.
