Reception

In his review for Ilta-Sanomat, Tarmo Poussu called Bodom "the first Finnish horror film that meets the international standards".[2] Jutta Sarhimaa from Helsingin Sanomat gave the film four out of five stars, complimenting the young actors, visual production and dialogue.[3]

Mimosa Willamo won the best actress award at Screamfest in 2016.[4]

gollark: You'd have to estimate it from the size and shape, I think.
gollark: I don't think that would work, since you cannot easily separate out the volume of different parts.
gollark: I definitely didn't blatantly make it up.
gollark: At precisely 0.0010723302924253162m³ of volume.
gollark: Memorizing 16 hex digits is totally possible with some work though. You'd probably only need 20 minutes or so at most.
