Honestly, wrapping duct tape around your neck to keep the zombies from eing able to bite through and break the skin to infect you is the smartest thing I've seen anyone do in any of these zombie movies. So props for that.
That's one thing I think about a LOT. Duct tape is really hard to chew through and it's easy to apply to anything, especially clothes. Slap some duct tape on exposed skin or clothes and you've got instant near immunity to bites.
@@arthas640 The only other zombie movie that did this was World War Z, and you know what North Korea did? Plucked ALL teeth from their population of 23 million.
In short. This movie is what you get when: You combine Norwegian history, culture, folklore, Evil Dead 3, horror cliches, humor and "We want to make a funny movie" with a low budget. There you go, and trust me, a LOT is lost in the translation.
They aren't zombies but draugr. While a zombie is driven to eat and spread infection, a draugr must kill to protect the treasures it has but only if they were stolen as seen in the film
@Zarrg "An undead creature driven by it's hunger is more like a ghoul or possibly a revenant" When we talk traditional versions, not modern interpretations, than Vampires also have to be on the list, they used to be a lot like modern Zombies.
Yes! Someone else noticed that too! So, actually, the title should have been Nazi Draugur/Draugr.... which... could actually make a pretty interesting title for a Noridc Lore based horror movie 🤔
The scene with the "random old guy" is supposed to be funny and awkward 'cause the guy playing him is one of the most famous modern Norwegian actors Bjørn Sundquist. He's from the north, aka the coldest and darkest part of Norway, where the people are known to be particularly tough, hardened, foulmouthed bastards, and that's typically the sort of character's he portrays. Imagine Clint Eastwood or Mads Mikkelsen in a similar role and you've kinda got it.
Instead of dead snow they should have called it "FROST BITE" c'mon you can actually get that in the cold and their in the snow and zombie bite they had the chance
Super late reply but just wanted to say I'm guessing it's a sort of pun on an old Swedish-Norwegian mini-series called Rød Snø aka Red Snow. It takes place during WW2 and the plot is basically some people going on vacation and then strange and horrible things start happening. There are a lot of parallels.
Ok, I now realize how much of this movie gets lost if you're not Norwegian^^ First of all it's a comedy, not a serious horror movie. Horror cliches and bad effects are played up for laughs. The "vague exposition man" is an actor named Bjorn Sundqvist, who's famous for "being in every single Norwegian movie ever"(not really, but almost, due to Norwegian film industry being very tiny for many many years, and there not being a lot of famous Norwegian actors). He comes in and is this typical kind of asshole old man character that he often plays, and the awkwardness and boringness of his scene is humorous, because it's a scene that Norwegian young people will relate to (when you don't want to talk to this person but you're trying to be polite and pretend listen cause he's older and even a little scary), but I think it seems like the whole tone is pretty much lost in the dub^^ The whole nazis being the ultimate evil thing and also "Dovregubbens Hall" playing in the beginning is also something that's very indebted in Norwegian culture. I know there's no point in writing a long TH-cam comment about this, but I just realized how this movie is very dependent upon it's audience being Norwegians (possibly of my generation even) and that's kinda interesting to me, so yeah... guess I wrote one anyway. I hope Phelous takes a look at the sequel too though, in my opinion that one lost all the charm and actually pissed me off a little:/
+JoeRingo118 I know it's a cultural thing, but holy shit I hate dubbing. It's not like the target audience for this kind of movie can't read.. I'm not terribly into anime, but I'm a huge Dragon Ball fan, and watching that in English (no matter the dub) is just painful. Btw your "even Finns" remark caught my eye. Are we known abroad as some kind of film snobs? :D Or maybe just grumps who don't like anything..
JoeRingo118 Oh yeah, I've been called a Scandinavian on the internet so many times that I almost started to believe I was one, hahah. I like many Norwegian movies, lots of good stuff. Neither Finland nor Norway has had filmmakers like Bergman or Dreyer, so I don't know of any really mindblowingly good movies from either country, unlike from Sweden for example, but lots of really entertaining stuff none the less.
Yeah! I'd say it's a very cultural thing for us. And yeah, the dub is pretty shit:/ But I think with how many just cultural "situations" there is, dubbing wouldn't work unless they switched things completely out with different referances...? But to be honest, I don't really think that would work very well either, it's just not an i ternational film^^
Hungryhungryheart Yeah, I was making a more general statement about dubbing. It's been a long time since I've seen this movie, and never in English so can't say much about that. You know it's a common practice in many countries, but still when you hear a movie like this been dubbed, you go "this isn't fucking Winnie the Pooh, why is this necessary?" The funny thing is, we nordics are pretty much a minority in the world with our fancy subtitles. I've heard many English speaking people go "who wants to read while watching a movie, I'm not reading a book!" which sounds absolutely absurd to me. Maybe it really is a chore to do if you haven't grown into it, who knows..
What is with characters in horror movies starting around the 90's onward? If you look at movies before that there would one jackhole in the group but everyone else would be pretty normal and when they were being killed you actually cared (most of the time). Now they're all jackholes and you WANT them to die, when they're not bland and generic. It's like modern horror movie makers want you to root against the characters and for the killer or something.
Pop Culture Primer Yeah, a lot of it comes off like Mad Libs where you just change the names of the characters. I also really hate how they try and give the killer a sympathetic back story which only serves to demystify them (killing the suspense) and, again, tries to make you root for them against the victims, which is all backwards.
The usage of "In the Hall of the Mountain King" IS actually fitting for a chase scene. The lyrics go (from memory here): Slaughter him! (A/The) Christian man's son has befouled/led astray the Mountain King's daughter! Then it goes into details about how they're going skin him alive and how to best prepare his flesh for eating. I guess it's been used for comedic effect so many times now that that's how it's remembered, so of course that would make it a poor choice for international audiences. Plus, it's hardly the reason the director chose it. If it was a slower opening "Morning Mood" would probably have been used. Because Grieg. I didn't really like this movie, to be honest. Just supplying that little tidbit of trivia.
This movie is actually one of my guilty pleasures, along with the likes of Iron Sky and Frankenstein's Army... Oh, and will you be reviewing "Dead Snow 2: Red vs Dead"? It focuses more on the Nazis, and is even more OTT and bizarre...
Zachary Watson Not exactly... Spoilers: the guy at the end doesn't die, but drives off at full speed with the zombie Nazi General hanging on for dear life. The car crashes and they both lose an arm... Which paramedics accidentally switch upon attempting to reattach. So now the guy has a zombie arm that helps him sense where the general is and vice versa. The Nazis aren't tied to the gold after all, and venture forth to conquer the known world, so the MC discovers the story of the only Russian unit that ever stopped them, using the General's reanimation powers in the arm to raise them for a final showdown... There's more, and a lot of crazy scenes. It's great fun!
I noticed you changed the music in certain parts, not complaining since I know you changed it because of youtube's policy, but i just think its so cool that I have seen your videos so many times I can notice these little changes
Good review as always. To answer your question about the use of In the Hall of the Mountain King. The only thing I can think of is that it is either public domain and they didn't feel like spending any real money OR (more likely the case) they are pointing out that Wagner, composer to the tune, was known to be one of Hitler's favorite composers. With Norway's past being mired in both Nazi and Eastern Block Soviet culture, this could likely be the culprit. I think it may be an in-joke.
Dalepatrick Frost Wagner didn't make "In the Hall of the Mountain King", Edvard Grieg did. And the main reason it was used in the movie is most likely because it's one of the most famous Norwegian pieces of music, and we like to use it in our movies. Like, 80% of our movies include it, we're insanely addicted to it.
i have to admit the original audio doesnt improve the story much but it does improve the dialog and red vs dead is fucking hilarious especially when he explodes the childs chest by accident
The split up cliche is so funny to me. It's like they know they HAVE to do something but have never had a single idea in their life so the only thing that comes to mind is "split up split up split up we have to split up"
I know what pisses me off is thats all he takes the cave was their final hideout there has to be tons of weapons in there yet he takes 1 mg 34 and just half a belt of ammo
i saw the movie in norwegian, dont remember there being classical music in it. might have to see it again. saw it when it came out and never saw it again.
I was very confused about the "organic" coffee, since I didn't know that it's the oficial term for for slightly less poisonous food products in the US. To me it seemed all coffee would be organic (plant matter to be specific).
I kinda understand do something if they are shown to be in shock, people can freeze or watch tragedies, but I’m not sure they are showing shock symptoms to justify that. For one “Gone to the beach” kinda ruins the trauma shock excuse for do something.
Hahahaha! I love the scene when she is looking at his creepy boyfriend and Phleus show again the clip when he is suffocating her like if was a traumatic memory she called back. Yeah, her look definetly says "I cant forget this jerk almost killed me with a pillow."
15:23 isn't it obvious he got it from the cave the nazis hid in before they died What pisses me off is there's no way there's only one machine gun in that cave and it doesn't take more weapons and ammo with him
I have violinist friends who detest In the Hall of the Mountain King because of having to play it several times and that song gets faster as it continues. Also, adding classical music over a lot of different things usually makes it funny. This movie was trying to hard. 🤨
I usually agree with your criticism on movies, but no matter how many times I rewatch this review I could never get on the same page with the critique. I haven't watched the movie myself, so the parts where you say it's boring I'd go by your word, but a lot of the clips that you showed I found to be written in a quirky way that maybe isn't "logical" but really unexpected and funny. Unlike movies like the Quarantine or Chain Letter, that consider themselves serious and you pick apart at their "seriousness" with areas where they were goofy or nonsensical. This movie from I can tell from the clips shown was intentionally goofy and seeing you critique strange or illogical moments like them splitting up for no reason or the whole suffocating thing, it just feels like you're criticizing a joke for not being serious. I've watched all of your reviews multiple times and this is the only one where I think your judgment of the film is a bit off. I do like some of your comedic reactions though like saying "and that is not an answer to that question" to "I've been busy" although I'm pretty sure the guy finding a fully functional machine gun without a reasonable explanation was the joke.
I watch all of the Channel Awesome people, and only Phelous and NC seem to go into total arbitrary mode with their criticisms every so often. I still enjoy both, but some episodes just don't make any sense. At least when I disagree with Brad, Lupa, Linkara, ect. I can understand their point of view, not always with Phelous or Nostalgia Critic. Some of their reviews are just arbitrary as hell, this conclusions and critiques that have no leg to stand on. I personally think he misjudged Jeepers Creepers and to a much lesser extent, Triangle as well. Though I am still working my way through his library.
To be honest the movie isn't great for anyone who don't understand Norwegian. Don't get me wrong, the movie is terrible but that's kind of the point. The dub ruins a good part of the movie because most jokes don't translate well into English, as dumb as that sounds. Also you're 100% right about the part where you mentioned that this movie doesn't take itself serious, it's more of a goofy comedy than a "horror" flick.
I love that film. It's shamelessly silly and gorey. It could be funnier and needs more undead. But it's awesome and unique. Awesome zombies. They're fast and credible. Dead Snow 2 is sillier. The transformed survivor can summon undead. And it ends up with him summoning Soviets. It's hilarious. It turns into Soviet zombies versus Nazi Zombies.
Wait dead snow was a comedy I watched the Norwegian version and it was less jokingly the whole beginning part wasn’t even in it just does credits doesn’t involve the music then after the beginning part it goes to the regular movie
Dead Snow, is weird for a title. Snow of the Dead would work better because they are dead in the snow. If that makes sense. They seem to be nazis that are Zombies. Decorating kinda works if they are nazis that happen to be zombies. If that makes sense Machine gun maybe from the lair? Not sure why not show it if that was the case.
Honestly, wrapping duct tape around your neck to keep the zombies from eing able to bite through and break the skin to infect you is the smartest thing I've seen anyone do in any of these zombie movies. So props for that.

I'm trying to imagine the history behind the tradition of pinning your friend on the couch and smothering them with a pillow. It's pretty great.
@@Ozymandias2x Guess you missed the "horror cliches" part huh?
Idiot character and all... No?
Ah well.
They aren't zombies but draugr. While a zombie is driven to eat and spread infection, a draugr must kill to protect the treasures it has but only if they were stolen as seen in the film
Yeah, I wish we had different types of undead in various films. Would stir things up a bit. Get some variety.
An undead creature driven by it's hunger is more like a ghoul or possibly a revenant, traditionally a zombie is a corpse reanimated to be a slave.
@Zarrg
"An undead creature driven by it's hunger is more like a ghoul or possibly a revenant"

Snow is really powerful, especially against living things. Better take it with you.
Snow? What... IS it??!
@@fanfaretloudest as winter's get warmer I'm not sure
Is that the Winter of '83?!
Instead of dead snow they should have called it "FROST BITE" c'mon you can actually get that in the cold and their in the snow and zombie bite they had the chance
Exactly what I was thinking when I saw this film in 9th grade on TV on TH-cam.

I loved the movie and the musical intro, and as a result I hate this review :)
That seems to be literally half the plot of Wrong Turn 4.
10:57 - (insert Linkara "We should do something!" clip here)
11:03- "We should DO something!" "Should we DO something?" "We should DO something!" "Should we DO something?"
South Park: The Stick of Truth had better nazi zombies.

Yes i couldn't resist!
4:30 love that Frankenstein grunt. "ummmm beer!"
Dead snow 2 is a lot better!
And both are way better in Norwegean ofc :D
I disagree with the sequel being better. Largely because even in the "Norwegian" version, the annoying American characters are annoying.
@@jamesoblivion repetition 😅
the pickle helmet was never used by the nazis, it was used by the German Empire during WW1

Dead snow sounds like a rejected left 4 dead campaign.
I am glad you are still making content 😁
Ah. Th Nostalgia. I binge watched this all the time in high school.

Theres a dead snow 2 phelous ! If you have the time, review it =D
i have to admit the original audio doesnt improve the story much but it does improve the dialog and red vs dead is fucking hilarious especially when he explodes the childs chest by accident
the quarantine 5 years ago man was a head of his time
nothing like watching some guy sitting out in the snow and reviewing a movie about snow
That "Groundhog Day" reference :D
This was the first foreign movie that I ever saw.
12 year old me loved it.
But Nazi zombies is a great idea! I love this film.
Yeah this film is pretty underrated in my opinion.
The split up cliche is so funny to me. It's like they know they HAVE to do something but have never had a single idea in their life so the only thing that comes to mind is "split up split up split up we have to split up"
I absolutely love ur videos! They're such a laugh! Xxx
He found the machinegun in the cave
I know what pisses me off is thats all he takes the cave was their final hideout there has to be tons of weapons in there yet he takes 1 mg 34 and just half a belt of ammo
Seeing Phelous in the snow made me wish it was actually snowing. It's so pretty.
The snow is the best character in this movie.
i saw the movie in norwegian, dont remember there being classical music in it. might have to see it again. saw it when it came out and never saw it again.
We’ll the song used in the chase scene is a CLASSIC Norwegian song, but nobody really knows that.
I was very confused about the "organic" coffee, since I didn't know that it's the oficial term for for slightly less poisonous food products in the US. To me it seemed all coffee would be organic (plant matter to be specific).
The second movie is more bonkers
14:02
Music name???
I hear a mountain lion!
In the beginning scene i thought you added in the music lol. It's been a while since I have seen this movie and i dont remember that XD
Heyo, what's the name of the doo doo song? 15:40
Someone please tell me, what is that kinda acapella song that's playing when duct tape neck guy and "we should split" girl die? D:
14:09 "uuggh..? (Are you REALLY that stupid?)"
another awesome review!! werent you freezing you poor Thing!! :-o also I wish it snowed were I live.... looks fun :-P
I love this movie! I wanna learn norwegian so bad but I have never had time to get started.
In school we used to mix rocks into the snowballs so they would really pack a punch!
This movie was so not in English first.
hey, let's just take public domain shit, and put that in our movie so we don't have to pay for epic music.
This movie was great, and so was the sequel
I kinda understand do something if they are shown to be in shock, people can freeze or watch tragedies, but I’m not sure they are showing shock symptoms to justify that.
For one “Gone to the beach” kinda ruins the trauma shock excuse for do something.
You should do dead snow 2!
ok im Genuinely surprised you didnt put any Nazi Zombies Gamemode jokes into the review
Hahahaha! I love the scene when she is looking at his creepy boyfriend and Phleus show again the clip when he is suffocating her like if was a traumatic memory she called back. Yeah, her look definetly says "I cant forget this jerk almost killed me with a pillow."
Dead snow 2 is fuckin awesome
wait when the guy was getting ripped apart was that the tenth doctor saying "I don't want to go."?
Shit, it's blocked in Canada for copyright issues.
15:23 isn't it obvious he got it from the cave the nazis hid in before they died What pisses me off is there's no way there's only one machine gun in that cave and it doesn't take more weapons and ammo with him
8:04 STUPID SURPRISED DEAD GUY!!!
The 1st movie is average. The 2nd is very decent. I especially liked the Zombies march on a civilian town. Won't spoil to you what they came with :)
Please review the sequel.
Another great video, Phelan.
Oh, well, at least they tried!
You should review Kickassia and Suburban Knights.
That request is INCREDIBLY ironic considering he was IN it😶
Also by the time you requested this it was bad timing
and no he did commentaries on it, i think that's enough in itself
I love this movie!!
This movie is a guilty pleasure of mine. Oh it's bad but it's a cheesy kind of bad. At least the second half is.
I have violinist friends who detest In the Hall of the Mountain King because of having to play it several times and that song gets faster as it continues. Also, adding classical music over a lot of different things usually makes it funny. This movie was trying to hard. 🤨

@@enfetkis83 well not everyone is able to tell. It was probably marketed as a horror movie in English 😅
I love that film. It's shamelessly silly and gorey. It could be funnier and needs more undead.
But it's awesome and unique.
Awesome zombies. They're fast and credible.
Dead Snow 2 is sillier.
The transformed survivor can summon undead. And it ends up with him summoning Soviets. It's hilarious. It turns into Soviet zombies versus Nazi Zombies.
The way he says mmmh beer sounds like frankenstines monster
Dead Snow is awesome
You should review the 2nd movie aswell its pretty good
I love snow. Lucky.
Did you just use a song from dragon ball gt
Yes
That song was the best part of GT
Like with the La Horde, I loved Dead Snow! And I enjoyed this review, too.
7:08 nice
Wait dead snow was a comedy I watched the Norwegian version and it was less jokingly the whole beginning part wasn’t even in it just does credits doesn’t involve the music then after the beginning part it goes to the regular movie
Norwegians in the snow, and no shape shifting alien....
Snow is great.
Bere æ som like den filmen?
Fun Fact: the chainsaw was actually invented to make amputations quicker.
And a quick bloodloss so it was invented for cutting a wood.

I met the screenwriters for this. Claim to fame
We can get ready with call of duty zombies
What they added more scenes to the English movie then the Norway version
I guess that happens?🤷♀️
Are you a MAN or are you a MOOSE!
Say Phelous are you immune to snow?🤔

This movie had the some plot as leprechaun
I have to agree with the dub I believe Evil Dead 2 is a remake
10:18 pffft
I liked the Dead Snow movie. Not my favorite zombie film, but my 3rd favorite.
Also, that dude with the Jet Ski kinda looks like a friend I would do yard work for.
+NerfGuy 9507 I meant Snowmobile.
I normally don't like horror movies but after watching your reviews I might have a new found interest
That Matt Smith joke though
you should have watched the subbed version
Colonel Herzog was the only person in the film I actually liked XD
0.30 Do you want to sillyness.
An American gangster and cyborg nazi fighting with shapeshifting gay aztec warrior. Try this.
Burak Arda Aksoy, this interests me 🤔😂
What's with the dubbed version? Couldn't you get a set of English subtitles?
Call of Duty Nazi Zombies in the snow level! Without the soldiers fighting back.
Dead Snow, is weird for a title. Snow of the Dead would work better because they are dead in the snow. If that makes sense.
They seem to be nazis that are Zombies. Decorating kinda works if they are nazis that happen to be zombies. If that makes sense
Machine gun maybe from the lair? Not sure why not show it if that was the case.
