The F*cking Fantastic, Action-Packed Film ‘SISU’ Is Out Today!

One of the best movies of the year, SISU, is out today on Video On Demand, and we highly recommend that you check it out! Nazis mess with the wrong man, and now he’s hell-bent on revenge in the action-thriller SISU, which we called “F*cking Fantastic” in our review. Set in 1944, “during the last desperate days of WWII, a solitary prospector (Jorma Tommila) crosses paths with Nazis on a scorched-earth retreat in northern Finland. When the Nazis steal his gold, they quickly discover that they have just tangled with no ordinary miner. While there is no direct translation for the Finnish word “sisu,” this legendary ex-commando will embody what sisu means: a white-knuckled form of courage and unimaginable determination in the face of overwhelming odds. And no matter what the Nazis throw at him, the one-person death squad will go to outrageous lengths to get his gold back – even if it means killing every last Nazi in his

In the film, “Joy, a survivor of domestic violence, joins her friend Carmen and her therapy group on an isolated weekend retreat in the Canadian Rockies.

Joy begins to suspect that they are being stalked by her abuser when in truth, the entire group will be forced to confront a threat even more terrifying than the monsters of their past.” Hannah Emily Anderson, Roseanne Supernault, Kyra Harper, Madison Walsh, and Daniel Arnold star in Dark Nature.
