From about 2002 to 2005 Seagal was really not very good at picking movies. Or maybe those he made were the only ones offered to him. Lately though, his pictures are getting better and better with each one. The last ones like Against the Dark, Kill Switch and Driven to kill were all pretty good movies. This latest one might have even made it into theaters if Seagal Movies didn't retain a certain distrust from the audience. As for the Plot: Seagal plays a Cop who is betrayed and shot by his partner, but survives. Soon after he is discharged from the force due to medical complications. Moments after getting the dismissal notice he receives a Call from an old friend of his who is now a rich property owner in Texas begging him to help him out with a big security problem. His daughter was recently the victim of a kidnapping attempt and he begs Seagal to look after her. Of course the noble knight can't refuse a plea from an old friend. Well long story short he travels there fights a lot of bad guys, kills a bunch of them and the whole process of doing so looks really great.

Of course this Movie can't keep up with $100 Million Productions but it can easily keep up with such movies as "War" or the "Transporter"-Movies.

For Seagal Fans this should be a no brainer and for fans of decent action flicks you might wanna try it.

As it says on the Box of the Blu Ray: "Zombies, Nazis, Blood on Snow... It doesn't get any better".

I wanted this movie so badly every since I heard of it at some festival I attended. My expectations grew and grew ever higher. Then the title was finally released in the UK on DVD/Blu Ray on August 31st. I got it about a week later.

By that my expectations were skyhigh. And let me tell you, I was not disappointed.

At first I was a little mad that the movie only came with English Subs and was in it's original Norwegian Language. But honestly. It didn't bother me one bit. You get used to it so fast when the movie sucks you in.

The movie starts with 4 guys and 3 girls on their way to a secluded cabin where they want to spend their easter break. At night they get a visit from an old fellow who tells them that evil lives in that mountains since the time the people there had to cope with the Nazis invading their land and using it as a marine base and such. And they weren't really nice to the people living there. They abused them terrible. Until they had enough. They killed the Invaders and buried them in the mountains. After finishing the story the guy leaves with a warning.

Well from then on it's about 50 minutes of hardcore splatter action. Very well made one too. And funny at the same time like two guys hanging off a cliff with only the intestines of the guy who is still on top of the mountain to hang on too.

They find a lot of ways to kill the resurrected Nazis..

But it's not really a comedy. More a splatter movie (real hardcore) that doesn't take itself seriously.

I don't wanna tell you anymore but you should see that movie. It's just great.

Even with my skyhigh expectations.. I still found it really awesome..
