Thale

About This Movie

Thale is a curious blend of fantasy and horror that dives into Norwegian folklore with an almost eerie atmosphere. The film follows Leo and Elvis, two cleaners who stumble upon a young woman named Thale in a basement, and it becomes this tense exploration of survival and the unknown. The pacing is deliberate, leaving you with that lingering sense of dread, while practical effects are used to create a hauntingly beautiful visual aesthetic. The performances are understated but resonate, especially in how they navigate the tension of discovery and fear. There's something distinctly unsettling about Thale's character—could she really be a huldra? This film manages to weave myth with modernity in a way that feels fresh yet timeless.
