While Tommy Wirkola's Dead Snow is soon to premiere at the Sundance Film Festival the film has made a wee stop here at Twitch before arriving in Utah. How so? Well, we've got two brand new extended clips from the film, both of them featuring English subtitles and one of which features a good dose of the Undead Reich. The other one's just got sex. Here's how the 'dancers describe it:
For eight medical students, Easter vacation begins innocently enough. They pack their cars full of ski equipment and enough beer to fuel their escape from everyday life to the snowy, isolated hills outside of Øksfjord, Norway. Once there, they receive a late-night visit from a shady hiker, who tells them a story about Nazi occupation of the area during World War II. After doing their fair share of raping and pillaging, the dreaded battalion faced a brutal and vengeful uprising by the citizens of the town. The soldiers who managed to survive the onslaught, including their dreaded leader Colonel Herzog, were driven into the hills by the angry mob, where they supposedly froze to death, never to be seen again. But if the horror genre has taught us anything, it's that the raucous behavior and promiscuity of the younger generation always have a way of bringing evil spirits back to life.Director Tommy Wirkola pulls no punches in the carnage department--heads roll, blood flows, and entrails ooze as the young vacationers attempt to make it through the night. Wirkola adeptly utilizes the snow's eerie and ominous backdrop to its fullest extent while orchestrating this wickedly gory, yet somehow delightful, tale of Nazi zombie terror.

thanks a lot...really looking forward to this movie!!!
Dead-ly!
Those zombies are not the usual shambling slabs of senseless slaughter; they can really move.
So I'm thinking and hoping that perhaps this movie extends the boundaries of the genre a little further out... new lore and innovation and whatever.
Looks good to me.
Thanks for the preview.
:P
