Seeking Norwegian film recommendations


I don't tend to set myself 'quests' with regards to watching films... I am sidetracked much too easily, it never works. But I am thinking of embarking on a mini-mission to seek out some strong Norwegian films. Unless I'm missing something the cinema of Norway has never made as much of a mark as that of Sweden and Denmark... looking at my lists I've seen something like seven Norwegian features and a couple of shorts, that's it.

Please give me your recommendations and favourites! Any genre and era is welcome. If they're readily available online, all the better...

I have seen and rated:

8/10

Pathfinder (1987)

7/10

Oslo, August 31st (2011)
Benny's Gym (short, 2007)

6/10

The Man Who Loved Yngve (2008)
Kon-Tiki (2012)

5/10

Troll Hunter (2010)
Shipwrecked (1990)
Cut Paste (short, 2008)
Hawaii, Oslo (2004)

I can't believe nobody mentioned the Nazi zombies slasher comedy Dead Snow and its sequel Dead Snow 2.
