Netflix Announces First-Ever Norwegian Project in New Horror Film, CADAVER
June 29, 2020An all-new project from rising filmmaker Jarand Herdal, titled Cadaver, is bound for Netflix in what will mark the debut of the first Norwegian horror film on the streaming giant’s platform.
The film takes place in the aftermath of a nuclear disaster. It centers on a family, Jacob (Thomas Gullestad), his wife, Leonora (Gitte Witt), and the pair’s daughter, Alice, played by Tuva Olivia Remman. One day, the local survivors are all invited to a theater play at the town’s hotel as part of a charitable effort to help people in need, spearheaded by Mathias (Thorbjørn Harr). The family attends. The night starts to take an eerie turn as members of the audience begin to disappear. A blurred line between reality and fantasy start to uncover a greater horror about the hotel.
Rounding out the rest of the ensemble cast are: Maria Grazia Di Meo, Trine Wiggen, Kingsford Siayor, Bente Børsum, Jonatan Rodriguez, Stig Frode Henriksen and Helge Jordal.
Cadaver is set to launch globally on Oct. 22, 2020, exclusively on Netflix.
