Evidently I'm not part of the target audience for which this juvenile gore-fest was intended. I like smart, creepy movies that plant disturbing ideas in your head and then harvest them with an interesting story that leads to a powerful climax. Nothing like that happens in this extremely predictable and totally un-scary chunk of Scandinavian dreck.
I could care less about the two-dimensional "characters" and their misadventures with a very large contingent of (omigod!!!! how do they think of these things!!!) Nazi zombies. It was obvious within the first 5 minutes where this thing was going. The filmmaker missed so many opportunities to craft better characters and a more compelling plot that I was ready to walk out after 45 minutes.
All I can say in this movie's favor is that the audience at the screening I attended (at a big film festival) cheered and applauded. I guess they were all zombie fans. I'm not.
