Dead Snow 2

The first one didn't offer us almost anything, the second one offered us almost everything. Brutal fun, funny lines, cool masks, a good story, and an even better final battle. I applaud all the funny scenes, because they worked excellently without exception (especially the scene at the bus and the scene with the Nazi doctor). I only regret poor Kristoffer Joner, who didn't say a single word in there, but had a terribly weird role. I'm just really glad that the Norwegians got into it with such enthusiasm and made a great effort to dig out the first part from that snow dung. Bravo. (2014-07-17)

Dead Snow: Red vs. Dead maintains a good enough level to be a suitable successor to the first installment, and I actually consider it even better. It's more action-packed, with more characters and plenty of references to other films - simply a beautiful child of modern pop culture, wrapped in stunning gore. And as if that weren't enough, the creators don't hold back even in the conclusion, and they keep us hooked until the very end. Satisfaction on my part, very great satisfaction. This is what it looks like when you get what you expect and then some. (2014-08-19)

The madness is back with a broader scope and a better form, and the only question in my mind is whether Dead Snow 2 is the best zombie movie or the best horror comedy. I found the first installment to be an average uninteresting genre flick with weak digital effects and minimal humor, but the second one kicked my ass. Unbelievable carnage from start to finish, guts flying everywhere, guts, blood slowly flowing even from the screen, add to that an awesome soundtrack and the best zombie make-up effects I've ever seen, and I also can't help but mention a lot of both funny and entertaining scenes and dialogue. Someone really put some work into the film, perfect technical and directorial aspects, a film so good it must have three languages in it, everything runs like a Swiss watch, gore lovers will really enjoy it and I can't wait for the next screening with bong in hand.  10/10 Guilty Pleasure.

Tommy Wirkola returned to Snow with an obvious upgrade in the budget, so limbs, heads, and every conceivable body part were flying around again. It's Wirkola's own brand of Nordic poetry. This time around, we've got the professional and determined American Zombie Squad jumping into the mix, so things aren't as straightforward as they were in the first part. But the real standout? The increased dose of black humor. Some scenes are downright unforgettable (the field hospital, the loyal zombie, the fuel pumping, the final erotica, etc.). / Lesson learned: When you're giving first aid, just make sure it's not the last aid. 4*- (2022-05-18)

Nice zombie massacre comedy. Unlike the first episode, there are lots of brutally funny scenes, like the heart massage at the beginning, it was hilarious. I’m not a big fan of this type of comedy splatter-fests, but I had fun with this one. Overall, between 3 and 4 stars, but the closing sequence with “A Total Eclipse of the Heart” was the deciding factor for the higher rating. This film has cult potential, I’ve already watched several more times. (2014-07-05)
