Nymph (aka Mamula) by young filmmaker Milan Todorovic is a fun, haunted house romp that I thoroughly enjoyed. As noted by another reviewer here - Todorovic manages to pack atmosphere, scares, and intrigue into his film while avoiding the recent trend in horror films towards torture porn. That's not to say that Nymph is without its gritty thrills - there is plenty of bloody, scary fun and lovely skin to be seen here. However, Todorovic simply chooses to tell his story without punishing his audience.
At the center of the story are three gorgeous, young women (Kristina Klebe, Natalie Burn, and Sofia Rajovic) they each bring believable insecurities and vulnerabilities to their roles while rarely seeming weak.
I should also mention one of my favorite facets of Nymph - the locations. This is a part of the world that we Westerners don't often see. The fort that our characters find themselves on is an imposing structure in the middle of a beautiful ocean (or is it a bay?). It must have been no small feat to film in such a place. The history of this fort (as explained by a character in the film) is real - this place is like an Eastern Alcatraz with more ghosts roaming it's halls.
If you prefer take your horror with a dose of fun, see Nymph.
