A Russian woman (Oksana Orlan) travels with her 11-year-old daughter (Kristina Pimenova) to America, with plans to marry an eccentric billionaire baron (Corbin Bernsen) offering them hopes for a better life. Arriving at his luxurious estate in the dead of winter and miles from civilization, the two are quickly enchanted by the reclusive man's charm. But the promise of a fairy tale existence ends as the rich man's tragic secret past is revealed and his resulting madness surfaces, turning their lives into a living hell. In a shocking final act, the baron's sinister plans are exposed, and the mother and daughter find themselves fighting for survival. (Cinepocalypse)

The film was rather lame. Halfway into it, I was still hesitating between one star and a “Boo”. But everything was saved by the way Nina got going in the end. I always thought that Russians run mainly on vodka, but I had no idea what half a pound of cocaine will do to them. Ash needed a chainsaw, a skillful Russian will manage with a basic toolkit.

The American production The Russian Bride is a horror movie that goes for broke. From the beginning, the cards are on the table, and you identify the violent aggressor and the victim. The casting was too straightforward and the actors were typecast. I did not mind it entirely, although I felt like I was being robbed of something and just waiting for some of the ideas to pop up, which they did now and then.
