In this one, we’re taking a look back at director Tommy Wirkola’s Dead Snow (watch it HERE), a popular Norwegian horror comedy that was first released in 2009.
Scripted by Wirkola and Stig Frode Henriksen, Dead Snow has the following synopsis:
A party of eight Norwegian medical students travel to a remote Arctic mountain for an Easter weekend filled with skiing and relaxation. After one of their group disappears while on a solo cross-country hike, a mysterious local resident tells the remaining visitors that, in the waning days of World War II, a battalion of Nazi soldiers disappeared into the nearby woods after the residents turned on them, and that their zombified corpses remain on the prowl in the area.
The film stars Bjørn Sundquist, Vegar Hoel, Charlotte Frogner, Lasse Valdal, Evy Kasseth Røsten, Jeppe Laursen, Jenny Skavlan, Ane Dahl Torp, Ørjan Gamst, and co-writer Stig Frode Henriksen.
