A group of medical students travel to a remote cabin in the snow covered mountains of Finnmark to spend the Easter holidays, but instead of fun and relaxation they find themselves fighting for their lives against a platoon of Nazi zombies, in Wirkola’s inconsistently entertaining film, which alternates between inventively bloody and merely clichéd.
