Cold Prey
Ramaskrik will welcome special guests this year as both Ingrid Bolsø Berdal and Roar Uthaug join us at the festival. Believe it or not, it has been 20 years since Norway got its first true slasher film with Cold Prey. Uthaug’s feature film debut became a major box-office success and launched a franchise with two sequels. Together with some of the people who were part of the adventure, we will celebrate the anniversary at Ramaskrik with a special screening and a Cold Prey-themed party at the hotel.
When Cold Prey premiered in cinemas on Friday, October 13, 2006, it kickstarted the filmmaking journey of Roar Uthaug, future star Ingrid Bolsø Berdal, and the production company Fantefilm. The film attracted 257,000 cinema-goers in Norway alone. Altogether, the trilogy sold 677,000 tickets domestically and went on to gain international recognition, showcasing the Norwegian mountains to audiences around the world.- Cold Prey is a milestone in Norwegian horror cinema, arriving at the very beginning of the new wave of Norwegian horror films.
It is exactly the kind of film we at Ramaskrik love to celebrate 20 years later. Oppdal may not be as isolated as the location in the movie, but it offers the same atmosphere with mountains, snow, skiing and cold weather. Almost exactly 20 years later, we are inviting audiences to a screening and celebration at the Skifer Hotel, specially decorated for the occasion.

Roar Uthaug
Director Roar Uthaug will be joining us for the anniversary screening of Cold Prey (Fritt Vilt). The film marked the beginning of an outstanding career in genre cinema, leading to acclaimed productions such as Escape (Flukt), The Wave (Bølgen), Tomb Raider, and, most notably, the Netflix hits Troll and Troll 2.
Uthaug is currently working on new horror projects, including a backpacker horror film set in Thailand, as well as several new Nordic productions. We may even get to hear more about these exciting projects during his visit to Ramaskrik.
Ingrid Bolsø Berdal
Actor Ingrid Bolsø Berdal, the star of Cold Prey (Fritt Vilt), will be joining us for the anniversary celebration. She has a long and distinguished career in film and television, both in Norway and internationally.
Horror fans will of course know her from the excellent sequel Cold Prey 2 (Fritt Vilt 2), but her genre credits also include Chernobyl Diaries, ABCs of Death 2, Hellfjord, and Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters. She has also appeared in popular television series such as Westworld, La Palma, and, most recently, Jo Nesbø’s Harry Hole. Over the years, she has firmly established herself as one of Norway’s leading screen stars.
