Stars: Tobias Zilliacus, Jonatan Bökman, Helena af Sandeberg, Mikael Persbrandt, Lena Olin, Oscar Pettersson, Anna Azcárate, Jan Waldekranz, Eva Melander | Written by Paolo Vacirca | Directed by Lasse Hallström
Joona Linna (Tobias Zilliacus) is a Swedish Cid officer investigating the murder of a gym teacher and his family. With no DNA or fingerprints, his only witness is the youngest child of the family, Josef (Jonatan Bökman), and he’s currently comatose and seriously wounded. Josef’s doctor, Daniella (Helena af Sandeberg), suggests using disgraced doctor/hypnotist Erik Bark (Mikael Persbrandt) to tap into Josef’s subconscious and find out what he saw. Reluctantly, Erik agrees, but soon finds his family the target as well, and the case becomes darker and more urgent.
The Hypnotist sounds like a good movie. It’s not. It’s a movie that has a half decent premise and squanders it on incredibly tedious scenes. There’s...

The Hypnotist is a film that is currently in pre-production from Sonet Film and others. This is a psychological thriller, as psychiatrist Erik Bark must help a victim of violence. Then, his own trauma hampers a police investigation involving the victim's murdered family.
The first film poster for The Hypnotist shows a tunnel or an eye, depending on how you look at the graphic. Based on the first promo' sheet and synopsis, this film is one of the more intriguing thrillers in development. 2012 is the expected released date (Europe) , but a North American release could be a little longer.
The synopsis for The Hypnotist is here:
"In the middle of a dark December night, psychiatrist Erik Maria Bark is woken by a telephone call from a hospital in Stockholm. Detective Inspector Joona Linna asks for his immediate help in treating an unconscious patient suffering from acute trauma.
