No matter which realm of entertainment we’re talking about, horror seems to be more and more about grossing people out and using cheap jump-scares because, unfortunately, we’ve forgotten the difference between being startled/shocked and actually afraid.

The idea of horror in modern times has gotten quite distorted, moving further and further away from the emotion of fear as the years go by. The Methodical Build-Up in The Lost Village Plenty of information remains from the olden days, ready to be uncovered and assembled to show the real picture of what actually happened to the vanished nine hundred. On the following morning Tone suffers an accident while exploring the village, and from this point on the bizarre happenings start to pick up in frequency and intensity, but Alice is the last person to be dissuaded by obstacles on the road to truth.Īs it happens, this truth may lay deep in the past of 1959, and the documentary crew is prepared to take the plunge into the strangest mystery they’ve ever encountered. However, starting from the first night when they arrive and set up camp, strange events beset them one after the other. The goal during their visit to the village consists of taking as many photos as possible to be used in their documentary at a later date. Her crew consists of Max the financier of the project, Emmy the production assistant, Robert the technician, and Tone the photographer. With her having passed away recently, Alice assembles a documentary crew to chronicle, and perhaps even solve the mystery what has engulfed her at this point. The main story begins by introducing us to Alice, a filmmaker whose grandmother left the fictional town of Silvertjarn five years before nine hundred people vanished in what seemed like a split second. In The Lost Village by Camilla Sten, nine hundred people have disappeared without a trace, and one woman is determined to find out why. It opens the door to all sorts of interpretations, from the mundane to the most convoluted ones, and acts upon our primal fear of the unknown. There are few unfortunate events which get the human imagination going like an inexplicable and traceless disappearance.
