The Carpenter

A deadpan Nordic revenge romp that pairs grisly payback with small-town absurdity, feeling scrappy, mean-spirited fun rather than truly grim.

Genres

Overview
They killed his daughter. Now he'll nail them all. A flamboyant crime lord descends on rural Finland — and awakens a lethal past in a gentle middle-aged craftsman.
How it feels
Dark, absurd, campy and tense. Brisk and easy to follow.
