Two Geeks and a GIT Classic Movie Reviews

Dead Snow (2009)


Listen Later

Moving into the 21st century from our last film, we also move across the Atlantic to the country of Norway for our second film. Directed by Tommy Wirkola and written by Wirkola and Stig Frode Henriksen, 2009's "Dead Snow" combines zombie lore with that of the ancient Norse myth of the draug (undead who spend their afterlife protecting their treasure, usually ill-gotten). A group of medical students head to a remote cabin for a weekend away from their studies. Owned by their friend Sara (Ane Dahl Torp), Erlend (Jeppe Beck Laursen), Hanna (Charlotte Frogner), Chris (Jenny Skavian), Martin (Geir Vegar Hoel), Roy (Stig Frode Henriksen) and Vegard (Lasse Valdal) get as close they can by car, then snowmobile or hike 45 minutes to the cabin. That night, a mysterious hiker appears at their door and tells them the story of a group of German Nazis who, back in WWII, subjugated and abused a nearby town, stealing all their valuables. Supposedly, the Nazis were especially fierce in their desire to keep their plundered gold. The next day, Vegard goes off in search of Sara (who has yet to turn up), while the rest at the cabin find a box with gold and jewelry beneath the cabin. This discover, however, triggers an attack by the Nazis, now undead, who still believe the treasure is theirs and are willing to eat anyone trying to take it! A truly unique dark comedy that includes some knowledge of horror tropes on the part of the characters, making for some rather stunning scenes! Plus, Chad reveals which two films, suggested by a listener and friend of his, will make up the next pairing!
