Bodom (internationally Lake Bodom) is a 2016 Finnish horror film directed by Taneli Mustonen. It is inspired by but not based on the 1960 Lake Bodom murders.[1]

Plot

A group of Finnish friends decide to go camping by Lake Bodom to do a reconstruction of the 1960 murders, but something goes wrong.

Reception

In his review for Ilta-Sanomat, Tarmo Poussu called Bodom "the first Finnish horror film that meets the international standards".[2] Jutta Sarhimaa from Helsingin Sanomat gave the film four out of five stars, complimenting the young actors, visual production and dialogue.[3]

Mimosa Willamo won the best actress award at Screamfest in 2016.[4]
