The Profile

Swedish film director known for atmospheric horror and thrillers, including 1408 and Il Rito (The Rite).

Directed 1408 (reviewed on DeBaser) and Il Rito (The Rite), both covered in DeBaser reviews provided.

DeBaser's reviews treat Mikael Håfström as a director of atmospheric horror and thrillers. 1408 is praised as a coherent Stephen King adaptation; Il Rito (The Rite) is seen as debatable in theme but strong on mood and Hopkins's performance. Overall the coverage is measured and appreciative of craft.

Notable Quotes

❝ The Devil Returns to the Scene, and with him the exorcists intent on sanctifying young creatures with altered voices.
❝ "Hotel rooms are creepy by definition..." says Michael Enslin (John Cusack), once a writer on metaphysical themes, now reduced to a scornful skeptic who reviews haunted hotels and lodging houses to make ends meet, systematically dismantling every enthusiasm.
