Eight medical students going for a boozed-up weekend in snowy ksfjord, Norway, discover a nasty history lesson of the local area when they uncover some old Nazi gold. Cue an army of pissed off Nazi zombies waking up in order to get their gold back! Their snowbound getaway, stocked up only with beer and ski equipment, becomes a hilarious splatterfest that pays direct homage to classic Peter Jackson and Sam Raimi films.

Zombie Nazies. Thats pretty much all you need to know. If you want a better Zombie Nazi movie - check out "Outpost" with Ray Stevenson. I would love to see a sequel that has a Zombie Hitler. That would be too funny!

SUBTITLED
the storyline is full of holes, but the awesome killshots and dark humour definitely make up for that. i loved this movie

Great! Loved it! Just that little bit different from your average zombie movie.

For what it was, a B-grade zombie movie inspired by Evil Dead. It was really good. Exactly what I was in the mood to watch.

Althrough Foreign (which wasn't mentioned on Quickflix), this film is rather good.
The gore was excellent, the effects used looked realistic enough, acting was passable, and the snow/mountains made for great visuals (would look breathtaking on Blu-Ray).
If you don't mind reading subtitles, like zombies, and like blood and guts, then this one is worth the watch.
2.5/5

Foreign but great fun... its a gore fest, with the red on white contrast making for some nice visuals. Got to be into your violence to watch this one, but a nice change to watch European horror over American. Its funny.

This movie was disgusting and that was one of the reasons my brother liked it...Me on the other hand found it too gorey and the storyline itself very boring. I'll probably never watch it again in my life lol

This is one of those "Almost movies" that just falls just short of 5 stars and would had if they fixed a couple of flaws. 8 medical students go on a skiing trip but find Gold where they are and a local curse comes to life bringing Nazi zombies onto them who gleefully kill off the students in gory fashion. They try to escape their hungry and angry foes. The acting is well done and the direction follows the tried and true but adds class to famior material. There are a few decnetly placed jump scenes and the blood and gore is impressive with creative deaths and they certainly arnt shy about it either. My only 2 gripes are they give the Gerneral suprsily very little too do apart from growl and look offical in his uniform and cap plus the ending feels unfinished esp. considering the cover but its a watchable and enjoyable Zombie flick and horror fans should enjoy.
