Storyline

If the worst day of your life consisted of accidentally killing your girlfriend with an axe, chain-sawing your own arm off, and watching in horror as your closest friends were devoured by a zombified Nazi battalion, you'd have to assume that things couldn't get much worse. In Martin's case, that was only the beginning.

Trivia

The one legged zombie in the medic scene is an actual amputee and provided the effects team with one of his own prosthetic legs to be torn apart used as a base for the shredded stump since creating a prosthetic that allowed for the insertion of a plunger and could support the actors weight from scrap proved difficult.

Goofs

Hanna's age stated in the newspaper which Martin read was 30. But her gravestone marked with 06.12.1987 - 13.04.2013 which makes her 25 years old at her time of death.

User Reviews

Surpasses the first! Remember the first right?!?

One of the rarest moments in cinema, when the sequel is better than the first, but wait, the first being a great movie too! So there you have it folks, another miracle just happened, you witnessed it and you can tell your grand children, that you were there, when Dead Snow 2 made its appearance!!

This one is a tad bit darker, much more complex, kinda the same amount of laughs, but the plot, huge improvement! You get hooked by it, just laying there, minutes passing and while craving for more, you do smile from time to time. Quite amazing the fact that they didn't rush a sequel with a weaker story, but actually showed some brains: literally and metaphorically of course!

It's a big mistake to read more, find out about the plot, get some insides, just watch it! Leave IMDb, and go watch Dead Snow 2! It is a BLAST!

Cheers!
