Deptford Cinema presents Zumbis - a season of zombie films from around the world.
This February, we're showing Dead Snow, Norway's contribution to the Nazi zombie genre.
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 (Bjørn Sundquist) 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.
“Dead Snow is an entertaining mix of camp, scares, and blood and guts. ”
