More about Sauna
Russia and Sweden fought 10 wars over a 300-year period beginning in the late 15th Century. One of them, a 25-year struggle that ended in 1595 and wreaked devastation on neighboring Finland, is the setting for Sauna. The brutal war has just ended and brothers Erik and Knut, one of them a hardened veteran of the conflict, roam the swampy terrain, part of a detachment commissioned to map the new border between Finland and Russia.
During their lonely, difficult trek through the wilderness, the brothers (Ville Virtanen and Tommi Eronen) come upon a young girl and commit a terrible sin, leaving her to die an agonizing death. But as the brothers continue on their mission, they become haunted by their actions and seek relief in a mysterious little village, where an ominous Sauna offers them the faint hope that they can simply wash away their sins.
Check out the trailer for Sauna below.

I prefer to watch dvd’s at home. It’s cheaper and we can relax, and watch whenever we want.
I prefer watching dvds at home, but occasionally there will be something worth seeing at the theater.
Nothing beats going to the movies, the smell of the popcorn and the excitement in the air.
I like to watch them at home cause I can be comfy there.
I prefer theaters, as my home just can’t compare to the big screen yet.
We prefer to watch movies at home on the big screen in Blu Ray when possible.
Thank you so much for the chance to win.
At the theater – more exciting.
home, hate the crowds, dvds
I prefer to watch at home, we have a blu ray player, HDTV and surround sound system. i love curling up with the family and watching a movie with them
I prefer to watch them in my own home on dvd. Then I don’t have to worry about noisy people and I can pause when I have to go to the bathroom!!!
I prefer watching DVDs at home. Movie theaters are way too expensive. Plus I can\\\’t curl up on the sofa or pause the movie to use the rest room at the cinema.
Before I quit smoking I prefered to watch movies at home but now it depends on the movie. A special effects laden movie like Armegeddon or Star Trek I would rather watch in a theatre
We have a very lovely theater in our city, so I still prefer movies at the movies!
I LIKE TO WATCH AT HOME ON REGULAR DVD AT NIGHT.
BASICALLY I AM IN CONTROL. NOBODY TALKING.
Watch at home via Blu-ray
I prefer them at Movies but home is ok too. Thanks for the chance.
EMAIL REMOVED!!!!!
I would rather watch at home, there is no distractions and I can relax
I like theatres better, the sound is better and the screen is bigger, thanks.
I prefer watching movies at home.
In theatres these days, people can’t seem to sit still and the whispering, giggling, chewing sounds are just to annoying.
AT home I have peace and quiet and watch either on satellite TV or on DVDs.
PS. It is also easier to pause the movie while I get another cup of tea !
At Home on DVD because theaters are so expensive.
I prefer the threater-It just seems more exciting on the big screen
love to win
At home, more privacy and less noise.
I prefer watching at home because I can stop the movie at any point if necessary so I don\’t end up missing anything if I need a bathroom break or need to answer the door.
at home through netflix
at home, on dvd. why? i’m a cheap, cheap man
i prefer the theater,but i can’t afford it too often
I really dislike going to theaters. I like to watch Blu-ray at home that I rent.
At home. Big Screen and Blu-ray.
I watch at home on DVDs, because I don’t have a Blu0ray player yet.
I enjoy watching movies at home with my brother. We usually watch DVDs. I think watching DVDs at home provides a more relaxing family atmosphere.
I love to watch movies in the comfort of my home. We usually watch dvds. Thanks so much.
We prefer to watch DVDs at home. We are more comfortable here (as I am disabled) and being able to pause the movie to do something is another plus. I usually sit in my recliner, with an ice cold Fresca and some Hot Tamales if I’m feeling indulgent lol
Thanks
I have a subscription to Netflix so I watch my DVD\’s at home, I only go to the theatres if there is something I really want to see!
At home on DVD via Netflix; with an occassional new release at the theater. the audience only detracts from the viewing experience imho.
I like watching films on DVD’s at home!
I prefer to watch movies at home because I hate people talking during the movie. I generally watch DVD’s. It would be better if I had a really good home theater set up, but I’ll take what I have over being annoyed by rude people. Plus a lot of the movies I like don’t make it to the theaters around here.
dvd
I prefer to watch movies at home nowadays. I have a really awesome bluray and DVD movie collection and my husband is OBSESSED with having the TV at optimum sound and color. We went to the local theater (an AMC) and not only did the place stink, the projectionist that was running it was not paying attention. The colors were off and the film was out of focus.
Foreing movies are far more interesting than local ones, differente perspective, out of the body experience or don\’t know, bu ti like them very much!!
and this kind of movies i love to see tehm on my house, on a DVD player so i can rewind or pause when something in the subtitles isnt clear or dissapirs too fast
I watch movies primarily at home rather than theaters due to cost. At home, it’s mostly DVDs … unless there’s something on TV at night that is especially enticing.
I prefer to watch at home by Netflix so much easier to never have late fees and you get free streaming like you would for any movie channel
I like the experience of seeing a movie in theaters, but for sheer convenience I prefer watching them at home on DVD at my own leisure.
I prefer to watch movies at home on cable TV. It\’s great to be able to pause the movie, take a leak or get a drink/food without missing a part of the movie. You don\’t have a bunch of people yabbering around you or walking in front of you, too many distractions at a theater. And I can watch it anytime I want! Thanks.
At home, on Blu-ray and DVD.
Ahhh, there is nothing as nice as lying in bed at the end of a long day and popping a DVD into the player and watching a movie at home, in bed. I also enjoy going to see a new movie in a theatre now and then for an outing with friends, but DVD’s at home are by far my favorite. I love snuggling up in the blankets and watching something spooky, and being able to pause and take a break or have a smoke any time that I like.
Even though I enjoy going to the movie theater watching a film in my own home is the best.Right now I use dvd but am planning on getting Blu-ray very soon.
