PLOT SUMMARY
During World War II legends, the locals of the Norwegian village of
Øksfjord fight back against their brutal Nazi occupiers, forcing
them into the mountains where they freeze to death. Many years later,
a group of medical students arrive in the area on skiing holiday only
to find that the sadistic storm troopers are back from the dead and
looking for blood.
