Naken is a 2000 Swedish comedy film written and directed by Torkel and Mårten Knutsson. It stars Henrik Norberg as a naked man who is caught in a time loop on the day of his wedding.

On the day of his wedding, Anders wakes up hungover and naked in an elevator after a stag party the day before. As he attempts to piece together the reason for his predicament, the day repeats itself, and he becomes stuck in a time loop.

Release

To promote the film, the Knutsson brothers appeared naked at the Cannes Film Festival, after which they were arrested.

Reception

Naken received negative reviews in Sweden. Jens Peterson of Aftonbladet called it a poor copy of Groundhog Day that is not even "so bad it's good".

Remake

In 2017, Netflix released an English-language, American remake starring Marlon Wayans and Regina Hall. Michael Tiddes directed the movie. Shooting took place in Charleston, South Carolina.
