Denmark is not really known for genre fare, even if it counts one of the hardest working independent genre actors today, Kim Sonderholm, who also appears in The Ringmaster (aka Finale), among its number. In fact it’s been over 4 years since the last (unless you count the genre-esque output of Lars Von Trier), Kasper Juhl’s Monstrosity. Now Søren Juul Petersen’s film looks to put Denmark on the horror map once again, with a film that isn’t afraid to actually be horrific!
Set on the day that Denmark has reached the finals of the European Championships and everyone is glued to their TVs, Finale takes place, for the most part, at a small petrol station on the edge of town.

The FrightFest strand at the Glasgow Film Festival always throws in a few surprises and this year it is Finale. It is an adaptation of the award winning novel by Steen Langstrup novel and is brought to life by Danish director, Søren Juul Petersen.
The opening titles set the tone in its declaration to change the perception of Denmark. We also have before the film begins a little homage to the original Frankenstein. It is a nice nod to a true classic.
The initial setting for the film is a petrol station out in the middle of nowhere. And from here we meet Agnes Berger (Anne Bergfeld) and Belinda Anderson (Karin Michelsen). We follow the pair who are working the nightshift on the same night Denmark are in the final of a non-specified sport event. So no expectation of a lot, if any, customers until we encounter three strangers.

Masked-up in Finale Photo: Glasgow Film Festival
Darkness is falling on a lonely road outside town. With Denmark unexpectedly through to the finals, practically everybody is watching the game tonight, and petrol station employees Agnes (Anne Bergfeld) and Belinda (Karin Michelsen) are expecting their shift to be quiet. What they don't know is that they've attracted the attention of a sinister organisation and with no customers, there will be no witnesses.
This is the premise of Søren Juul Petersen's Finale, showing in the Frightfest strand at this year's Glasgow Film Festival. In the run-up to the screening, the first-time director agreed to answer some questions about the origins of the film and the way it developed onscreen.
We began with the theme of games and I asked if the way that people can become obsessive about watching games was an important theme for him. Did he see it as...
