There is a great moment when Herzog is standing in front of the tank and the turret begins to turn, finally stopping with the barrel directly behind his head. The Nazi zombie doctor heals the wounded soldiers as they come off the field by stuffing them with straw and, at one point, by using a toilet plunger for a prosthetic leg. One of the best scenes happens during the climactic battle. Humor plays a vital role throughout the film.
In a clear homage to Titanic, Martin revives his dead lover from the grave and engages in steamy zombie-necrophilia in his car. The film ends in an entertaining, emotionally satisfying and even touching manner.
Herzog beefs up his undead Nazi following tenfold, even adding a Tiger tank! Martin gets help from several others and in the finale he leads his own zombie army of Russian POWs into a thrilling battle that puts most Hollywood battles to shame. We are reunited with Martin, our protagonist from the original Dead Snow, who now finds himself being hunted by undead Nazi commander Colonel Herzog (Ørjan Gamst), who wants revenge on Martin for defeating him in the first film. The action takes place all over the colorful and quaint towns and countryside of Norway. Whereas the first film was a clever twist on the “spoiled young adults head into the forest for a getaway and are soon terrorized and killed off one by one” story, Dead Snow 2 really opens up the universe in which these characters dwell. This is a risk-taking film, and I loved it. It is more ambitious, more original, more daring. The sequel to the 2009 hit is a vast improvement on an excellent original. With great contributions from Wirkola’s co-writer Stig Frode Henriksen and leading man Vegar Hoel (Martin), Dead Snow 2 is made by master filmmakers in every aspect of the creative process: photography, writing, acting and direction.
