Horror

Overview

Jennifer, an Australian girl on the run from her past, turns up in Amsterdam and, in a desperate attempt to blend in, joins a coach-load of tourists on a tour of Holland’s old windmills. When the bus breaks down in the middle of nowhere, she and the other tourists are forced to seek shelter in a disused shed beside a sinister windmill where a devil-worshiping miller once ground the bones of locals instead of grain. As members of the group start to disappear, Jennifer learns that they all have something in common – a shared secret that seems to mark them all for doom.

Viewing Notes

Here’s what I know about Dutch horror films – not much. Isn’t the guy who directed The Human Centipede (and its sequels) Dutch? Wait – does “Dutch” mean “from Holland”? Or is it Netherlander? Or Hollandaise? Yikes. I am not the global citizen I like to think I am. Suffice it to say, I’m a clueless idiot. So when The Windmill came across my (metaphorical) desk, I’d never heard of it. But, as The Wolfman pointed out, it did have Noah Taylor in it. And that guy’s rad! Besides, I’m a progressive person, so windmills and the electricity they produce from renewable / sustainable wind power should be right up my alley, right?
