The Morgue, the Merrier
By Jeffrey M. Anderson Buy Nightwatch on DVD. A crackerjack little thriller from Holland, of all places. It was remade in 1998 with Ewan McGregor and Patricia Arquette, but check out this superior original. Directed by Ole Bornedal, it's the story of a morgue security guard who gets mixed up with a psycho killer. The film really generates the suspense and keeps it going. Anchor Bay Entertainment's 2001 DVD contains a lovely transfer, plus a commentary track by the director and a trailer. (Also known as Nattevagten -- not to be confused with the 2004 Nochnoy dozor, which was released in the U.S. in 2006 as Night Watch.)
