Dead Snow

As mad and blood-stained as a meat-axe, this hilarious splatter-romp through the winter wonderland of Norway pits seven medical students and a skidoo against a very hungry hoard of Nazi Zombies.

Screening – or is that screaming – for one night only (and on Halloween!) Dead Snow follows a group of students looking for a quiet Easter break. Leaving civilisation behind, they head for the mountains and a small hut surrounded by very white snow. Conveniently just out of cell-phone range they settle in for a few drinks and plenty of discussion about their favourite horror films. When a local surprises them with a scary visit and warnings of the evil in the hills, they batten down the hatches, but have no real answer for the unstoppable force about to be unleashed. Director Tommy Wirkola pays a teasing game of homage to the genre in this very clever spoof which has been a sell-out hit at festivals all over the world.

Festival Screenings at Sundance, Melbourne, Seattle, Karlovy Vary.

“Cheery, silly, splattery, and respectful of its elders (and betters, particularly Sam Raimi’s “The Evil Dead”) Lisa Schwarzbaum Entertainment Weekly

“Any horror movie with the moxie to play Tchaikovsky’s “Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy” during a zombie attack can’t be all bad.” Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times
