Steve realizes that he has to go to Sweden and help Eric. Steve's wife Linda insists on coming too. Something she will deeply regret. When they arrive in Sweden they find Eric on the verge of insanity. He raves about their old teacher, who was burned to death in a mysterious fire many years ago. Steve and Linda become involved in Eric's world of illusions. Soon it gets impossible to distinguish between dream and reality. They are more and more affected by an evil force from the other side. The trip that should have been a vacation to Sweden becomes a one way ticket to hell.

Reviews

Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Leofwine_draca SCORCHED HEAT is another limited, low rent horror film from Sweden, with almost exactly the same plot as SOUNDS OF SILENCE. As usual most of the plot revolves around two of three characters in a supposedly haunted location. It's one of those cheapies guaranteed to test the patience of even the hardiest viewer, with endless small talk and limited horror scenes which don't exactly terrify. A guy heads off to Sweden where he meets a childhood friend going out of his mind; a dark shared secret may be the reason behind his fragile mental state. There's very little here even for the purveyor of rare horror to get excited about.
