Two Words: Nazi Zombies

Friends, readers, people who reached this site accidentally by way of an awkwardly phrased google search for porn, LEND ME YOUR EARS. I bring you tidings of great joy.

Great, human-flesh-gnawing zombie joy, that is. The greatest joy of all! Tell your friends!

Listen, I don't think I'm necessarily overstating things when I say: BEHOLD WHAT WILL PERHAPS BE THE GREATEST FILM (with zombies) EVER MADE! It's called Dead Snow, it's from Norway, and if you're anything like me, its premise alone will make you squeal with glee:

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.

Yeah, and we're not just talking about your run-of-the-mill, stupid, moaning, Frankenstein-lumbering zombies here. We're talking about some got-damn fiendish, smart, fast-moving talking NAZI ZOMBIES. (squee!)

(Also, what do you think the chances are that Colonel Herzog is somehow related to director Werner Herzog? Hmm? Oh nevermind.)

And if that's not enough to get your soon-to-be-drained-from-your-body-by-evil-Nazi-zombies-blood pumpin', perhaps this brief audio-visual piece will be of some assistance:

Nazi Zombie fever! Catch it! (Before it catches you and eats your delicious braaaaaaains.)

Showing at the Sundance Film Festival this month, and coming soon to a theater near you, we can only hope (oh please, sweet tiny baby jesus!).

Man, what a missed opportunity for the most awesome death metal bad name EVER.

Zombie movies are my #1 favorite. I am so going to have to check this out.

This is so awesome I am Twittering it right now.

I wonder, did opening the box of Nazi Gold Trinkets cause the zombies to rise? I'm trying to come up with the causal effect for their sudden awakening. It's either the gold box or the smell of cheap brew and testosterone. Either way AWESOME!

You are aware that World War Z is being made into a massive epic movie, screenplay by J. Michael Straczynski, directed by Marc Forster? It will be The Lord of The Rings of zombie movies. Hobbit braaaaaaaaaains!

I have never been so proud of my Norwegian heritage.

Am Norwegian. Saw movie a couple of days ago. Cannot recommend hard enough. Added bonus - I'm from the north of Norway, and for once in my life the set of a movie looked like my actual day-to-day surroundings! Slight drawback - I'm now rather concerned with the possibility of a zombie uprising come spring thaw.
