“You get bad breath when you’ve podcasted for a while. Put your hand over your mouth. Breathe out and you can smell it.”


Welcome to Additional Crew, the spoiler-heavy review show where we choose whatever random film we want to talk about. This episode we bring to you ”A law student starts working as a night watchman at The Department of Forensic Medicine in Copenhagen. His mad friend gets him on a game of dare that escalates. As a serial-killer's victims start piling up at work, he becomes a suspect.”


I am of course talking about Ole Bornedal’s Nattevagten(Nety vogten), in its original Danish tongue, or Nightwatch as those of us that rely on English would call it. It is a film that takes the effervescent nature of Copenhagen and flips it on its head to show us a story about where all of our bodies will end up. This is a movie set in Denmark, and made there as well so please bear with us as we potentially butcher names.


Up next: "A History of Violence" (2005)
