Reviews
"Interesting and well-researched . . . If a movie was made in Sweden from 1951 to 1993, and it included an abundance of sex, violence or weirdness, Daniel has tracked it down, trapped it, stunned it, reviewed it, researched it, and reported back to you the reader with how he feels about it. You need a Swede to traverse these sinful waters, and Ekeroth is paddling at full throttle." -- Robin Bougie, Cinema Sewer "Where else are you going to learn about films like Dirty Fingers, Scorched Heat, The Guesthoust Of Evil, Mona's Secret Sex Dreams and the wonderfully titled How Marie Met Fredrik, Rebus The Donkey, Ploj The Kangeroo . . . " -- RockShockPop.com, "Ekeroth's critiques seem dead-on and are always humorous. They are sensations in themselves." — The Nova Scotia Chronicle Herald "Amazing book... Ekeroth deftly separates the trash from the triumphs. Remarkable!" — Shock Cinema "Ekeroth dives into his subject matter with the kind of attention to detail that even celebrated documentarian Ken Burns could appreciate." — AOL Noisecreep "This encyclopedic overview of the grimy-great underbelly of Swedish filmmaking reveals more delightfully depraved and downright perverse sensationsfilms than possibly even Lisbeth Salander could countenance." — Austin Chronicle "Full of cultural insights you won't find in academic journals." —Minnesota Star Tribune "This book really brings me back… I get really nostalgic reading about these movies." —Christina Lindberg "Filled with skin and sin, the rabid hellhounds of Euro trash cinema will rejoice in getting their killer kicks from yet another exploitation avenue rife for exploration." —Cool Ass Cinema "A multifaceted account of the sensational sleaze of the '60s and beyond" — Fangoria "An enormously entertaining and extremely informative book on an often-overlooked film movement...one of the first must-have books on film from this young decade" — Moon in the Gutter "Interesting and well-researched...

Other efforts are simply too strange and Swedish to ignore. Once again, "Swedish Death Metal" author Daniel Ekeroth delves into the arcane culture of his homeland, returning with the first comprehensive overview of Sensationsfilms Swedish Exploitation Cinema.", By and large, Sweden's place in film history is secure and prominent.
