"Dead Snow"

A woman, Sara, (Ane Dahl Torp) is being chased through the snows of Norway. She is ultimately cornered and eaten by zombies in World War II Nazi uniforms.

Seven students on Easter vacation, arrive at a small cabin near Øksfjord. The cabin is owned by Sara, Vegard's (Lasse Valdal) girlfriend. Unaware of her fate, the group begins to drink and party until a mysterious hiker (Bjørn Sundquist) arrives. He tells them the dark history of the region; during World War II, a force of Einsatzgruppen, led by Standartenführer Herzog (Ørjan Gamst), occupied the area. For three years the Nazis abused and tortured the local people. Near the end of the war, with Germany's defeat looming, the soldiers looted all the town's valuables. However, the citizens managed to stage an uprising and ambushed the Nazis, killing many. The survivors, including Herzog, were chased into the mountains, and it was assumed that they all froze to death. The hiker then leaves to continue on his way, and is later killed by zombies.

The next morning Vegard takes the group's snowmobile out to look for Sara. He finds the body of the hiker, when he suddenly falls through the snow into a cave. Meanwhile, The other students find an old wooden box filled with valuables hidden under the floor. They consider taking it, but eventually put it back. After it gets dark, one of the students, Chris (Jenny Skavlan), goes to the outhouse and is murdered. The others go outside to look for her, only finding Sara's rucksack buried in the snow.

Later, the zombies arrive at the cabin. Erlend (Jeppe Laursen) is killed before the remaining students manage to seal the cabin windows and door and survive the night. Vegard comes around in the cave, discovering WWII German firearms and helmets, as well as Sara's severed head. Vegard is attacked by zombies and is badly bitten in the neck by one. He manages to kill them and escape on the snowmobile, which he equips with an MG 34 machine gun.

Meanwhile, the remaining four students in the cabin have decided to split up. The two men, Martin (Vegar Hoel) and Roy (Stig Frode Henriksen), attempt to distract the zombies, while the two women, Hanna (Charlotte Frogner) and Liv (Evy Kasseth Røsten), run for the cars and go for help. Enroute to the cars, the girls are ambushed and Liv is killed. While she is being disemboweled, she manages to destroy several of the zombies by activating one of their hand grenades. Meanwhile, after killing two zombies, Hanna is chased to the edge of a cliff by a single zombie. She turns and faces the zombie and stomps on the ground, causing the ice to crack, and both of them to fall. Both survive, and are submerged in snow; Hanna, remembering what Vegard said about spit and direction of digging, despite not being in the same car when the conversation had occurred, digs her way out and kills the single zombie.

Martin and Roy, holed up in the cabin, accidentally set fire to it with molotov cocktails intended for the zombies. As they escape, they discover that the shed next to the cabin contains numerous power tools, which they equip themselves with. More zombies attack, but Martin and Roy manage to fend them off with the aid of Vegard, who returns with the snowmobile. However, Vegard is killed during the fight and Martin accidentally kills his girlfriend Hanna. Herzog arrives with another group of zombies, including SS men, but Martin and Roy manage to kill them all. Martin is bitten on the arm and cuts it off with a chainsaw to avoid turning into a zombie, but a zombie bites him in the genitals. Herzog then raises many other zombies from all around and the two students run. While on the run, Roy is hit in the head by Herzog, disoriented runs into a tree and is disembowled.

Martin come to realizes that the zombies are after the box in the cabin. He runs to the burnt-out remains of the cabin, and gives the box to Herzog. He manages to get away, and, upon reaching the car, a coin falls out of Martin's pocket. Swearing, he looks round to see Herzog smashing in the car window
