Double Truble Whore poster
NR

Hora Dobbel Trøbbel is essentially Reinert Kiil taking his films Hora and Inside the Whore and throwing them into the same cinematic meat grinder. The result is a nearly three-hour Norwegian underground horror experience that re-edits the two films into one deliberately constructed grindhouse-style feature,complete with an intermission,music videos,and additional material that makes it feel less like a simple double bill and more like its own bizarre exploitation movie. Rather than simply putting Hora and Inside the Whore back to back, Hora Dobbel Trøbbel turns them into a new cinematic package with its own rhythm and identity. It plays like Kiil building his own little grindhouse universe out of the films, with the intermission and music-video sections becoming part of the experience. The finished film runs 178 minutes and was released in 2015 on festivals - and first time on disc in 2025.
