Post Mortem: No One Dies in Skarnes first-look trailer released

Billed as a vampire drama comedy, Post Mortem: No One Dies in Skarnes is directed by internationally acclaimed Harald Zwart and written by up-and-coming writer Petter Holmsen, the Norwegian series will arrive on Netflix on August 25. Here’s the synopsis:

Post Mortem: No One Dies in Skarnes begins when Live Hallangen is declared dead. Hours later she suddenly wakes up on the forensic table. A dark, insatiable hunger has awoken inside her.

Meanwhile, her brother Odd tries to keep the family driven funeral home afloat, but the stagnant death rate in the small Norwegian town of Skarnes makes it impossible.

Live has to learn to control her new dangerous nature and decide if she is willing to sacrifice people’s lives for her own survival, which, ironically, goes hand in hand with the survival of the family business. 

The cast includes Kathrine Thorborg Johansen (Live), Elias Holmsen Sørensen (Odd), Andrée Sørum (Reinert), Kim Fairchild (Judith), Sarah Khorami (Rose) and Terje Strømdahl (Arvid). It is produced by Espen Horn, Hege Skjerven Clausen and Kristian Strand Sinkerud. The series consists of six episodes.

You can watch the first-look trailer now, and we expect more before the end of August. We’ll keep you posted.
