VICTIM OF LOVE is the first feature film by Danish award-winning director Jesper Isaksen IMDB and the first feature film that has been produced by BLEED FOR THIS PICTURE. In fact, it’s the very first production by this newly formed Copenhagen based company.
VICTIM OF LOVE is a bloody, yet stylish horror-thriller shot on location in Copenhagen and Fyn in the summer of 2018. The lead role as CHARLY is played by established Danish powerhouse actor Rudi Køhnke (THE BIRDCATCHER’S SON, C4, ANGELS IN FAST MOTION, WARRIOR etc.) - IMDB
Another stunning performance comes from Siff Andersson playing the role of FELICIJA. She’s a young and very talented actress, who makes the screen burn together with Rudi Køhnke. Their special kind of on-screen chemistry can’t be denied - IMDB
Other important cast members includes Louise Cho in the role as AMY - IMDB, Paw Terndrup as FREDERIK - IMDB, Sabrina Ferguen as CHLOE - IMDB and Jens Blegaa as JOE LUDWIG - IMDB
The film crew consists of both younger and seasoned people, but all hugely talented and professional. D.O.P. is feature film debutant Mathias Tegtmeier, who in spite of his young age and debutant status is widely recognized as one of the best photographers in the business relying on his experience from a large number of projects ranging from short film, commercials, music videos and art films - IMDB
Colourist Norman Nisbet is regarded as one of the absolute best color graders in the Danish film industry always adding his magic touch to make the visuals even more stunning (THE NEON DEMON, MELANCHOLIA, GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO etc.) - IMDB
Peter Seeba is an awesome sound recordist and sound designer from Texas, USA and was definitely up to the task of making the film a truly masterpiece regarding the sound design. He was also the sound recordist on the film, which gave him intimate knowledge of the material - IMDB
Morten Green was our go-to sound consultant. An award-winning sound designer, hugely talented and easily regarded as one of the best in the business with a huge amount of wonderful projects behind him (SHORTA, A HIJACKING, WARRIOR, RECONSTRUCTION etc.) - IMDB
Stunt360 was in charge of stunt & action scenes and Janus Vinther handled blood and other grueling endeavors. All in all, the whole crew consisted of roughly 65 people. You can see all cast & crew so far at IMDB
The soundtrack was composed by Søren Haahr, who spend a year composing the most inspiring, uncompromising and dark soundtrack in the true spirit of the late Jóhann Jóhannsson. A soundtrack every bit as haunting as the movie itself.
I also began a fruitful collaboration with composer Julian Winding (THE NEON DEMON, TOO OLD TO DIE YOUNG) who created the perfectly crafted track "Bleed for it". A dark, intriguing and pumping track that makes a beautiful match with a few but very important scenes in the movie.
Also, the Danish rock band THE PROMISED delivered an epic rock song, that will blow your mind!
