Icelandic TV station + fake ghost + 64 minutes = chaos you didn't know you needed.
A young student starts working as a night watchman in the Icelandic TV-house which is supposed to be haunted. Together with a make-up girl working there, he pretends to be a red-haired ghost. But what started out as a joke, soon becomes no laughing matter.
Production
Actual Icelandic TV station location adds unshakable authenticity.
Practical Effects
Red-haired ghost costume: gloriously unconvincing, therefore perfect.
Direction
Víkingsson stretches 64 minutes into something genuinely uncanny.

Director
Viðar Víkingsson
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Shot in RÚV's actual Reykjavík headquarters, making this possibly the only Icelandic horror film where the haunt is literally state media infrastructure.
Director Víkingsson was primarily a documentarian; this was his only narrative feature, which explains the eerie 'is this staged or real?' energy throughout.
