Blucher One of the worst movies I've ever seen

Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Jerrie It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

Tina Willis Different writers, different director, and different actors, then from the first two Cold Prey films. It was a noble attempt, and hard acts to follow. It wasn't terrible, by any means, but it wasn't as well done as the previous two movies. In the second film, it is alluded to that little boy, Gunnar (who would grow up to be the killer)had been involved in a rash of mutilating and mass killing animals. And that was why the parents attempted to solve the problem, by killing the child. Not the greatest of motivations, but okay, it made sense. In THIS movie, it shows the parents being cruel. The local cops estranged brother Jon, shown cutting into a cat, is all of a sudden now the one possibly involved in the animal abuses. Why they even added this character only muddled things up for me. The score appropriate if not a bit unforgettable. Subtitles not as good either. Misspelling, sentences that didn't make sense,translations not well done.(ie: "Does anyone have mosquito spray?" answer "I just took my game with me." (Bad screenplay,or bad translation, Im not sure) This movie has the characters doing stupid things for no reason, just to force an encounter with the killer. So typical of low quality slasher films. Since the setting is in the outdoors, and so much room to run, it doesn't create the amount of tension as the first two movies. Gorgeous country tho!! The acting was well enough done. Although it took quite a bit of time with the characters getting to know them, which I appreciated in the first movies, these characters weren't as likable. I couldn't tell you exactly what the difference was, but the endearing character qualities of the first two was missing in this one. No twists or surprises. Special effects blood etc, were well done and realistic.Pace drawn out and slow. And still Better then many movies in this genre.

VideoEmbolism The end(?) of the "Cold Prey" trilogy is better than the first but not as good as the second. They dispense with the "Halloween" movie mimicry and most of the tale takes place in the woods where a group of horny Sweden, or is it Norwegian, teens end up camping only to be relentlessly stalked and colorfully killed by our now well-known killer in pre- mid- or post- coitus mode. Again the movie looks great, the kills are good, not as good or as many as in the second but there none the less. There is some snaky twists involving a cop and that hearkens back to the first film but all around nothing too complicated or ambitious.A well-made slasher trilogy that deserves either another sequel or a spin-off.

nightwatch4773 When I heard that Cold Prey 3 was a prequel, I was a bit upset but than I thought hmmm maybe the Norwegians can to do it and right I was. So we are now onto the origins of the killer and why he is killing. To me I was riveted from the get go and bought in to the motivations behind our antagonist. Sure this was well done but maybe my liking has a lot to do with me watching these three films 18 months apart in which I didn't have that attachment to the killer and not wanting to know his past. When Rob Zombie re-invented Halloween's Micheal I just didn't care. To me Michael Myers was no longer scary and not knowing the true origins of Michael for 35 years was fine with me. The remake of Friday the 13th in 2009 I felt the same way. Did we really need to know about Jason's Lair underground...ahhh No and I think Friday the 13th Part 2 explanation was enough. Anyway Cold Prey 3 is as good as its going to get for a prequel and it really ties the three movies together. I give it 8 on principle that I just won't give a prequel a 9.

kosmasp Slasher movies might try to be cute (see first part of the Cold Prey series or High Tension for that matter), but this is as down and dirty as you might expect it to be. It is also exactly what you think it will be throughout. In other words: It is dire predictable. It's still nicely done and all, you just can see where it is heading (actually you might know where it is heading before it even begins). If you don't let that spoil your "enjoyment" of the movie, you are good to go.In this case, it is not really necessary to have seen the other two movies of the "franchise". Actually you might be better off not having seen them. Slasher fans will enjoy this (I guess most did enjoy the first one too), but for everyone else this might prove to not be enough of anything to make them wanna watch it through
