Dead Snow

This group of friends thought they had all they needed for a successful Easter vacation: cabin, skis, snowmobile, toboggan, copious amounts of beer, and a fertile mix of the sexes. Certainly, none of them anticipated not returning home alive! But, the Nazi-zombie battalion haunting the mountains surrounding the aptly named Øksfjord (Axefjord) had other plans...

With KILL BULJO –THE MOVIE director/scriptwriter Tommy Wirkola at the helm, the added enthusiasm of co-writer Stig Frode Henriksen, and a dedicated crew, DEAD SNOW proves that you don’t need a big budget to create a phenomenon. This groundbreaking Norwegian Nazi-zombie movie features established actors and stellar special effects (the effects budget alone amounts to $600,000, more than any other Norwegian movie). No less than 475 quarts of blood were used in the scenes where the Nazi‐zombie soldiers arise from their graves and attack the unsuspecting heroes. A very different kind of horror film, this feelgood‐Nazi‐zombie‐splatter‐comedy will satisfy even the most discerning gore aficionado.
