A group of young Americans takes a trip to a remote commune in Sweden to observe an unusual midsummer festival. What they discover is a creepy series of events that become more and more destructive, but never bloody or horrifying. Anyone expecting a typical thriller will be disappointed that the frights don’t exist. The storytelling is somewhat compelling…leading to hopes of a shocking payoff that never comes. The ultimate “events” are more like a weird paranoid folk trip than a movie that’s shocking or scary.
