Description

In the tradition of great TCFF zomcoms like “Zombeavers” comes “Attack of the Lederhozen Zombies,” because nothing says Saturday night at the State like flesh-starved Austrians dressed in silly suspenders and short pants. The plot goes a little something like this: two pro snowboarders and their girlfriends find themselves stuck on an Alpine mountain the same night an overzealous resort owner unleashes his new, and, as it turns out, highly toxic artificial snow (there’s an environmental message here somewhere), spawning the titular army of sartorially-challenged undead. Striking a tone somewhere between an 80s ski comedy and “Dead Snow,” it’s safe to say the chills you feel won’t just be from the snow on screen. And there’s a lot of transferable survival skills to be found here for us Northerners, like using slope skis to sever attackers. Come for the education, stay for the company.
