Storyline
If the worst day of your life consisted of accidentally killing your girlfriend with an axe, chain-sawing your own arm off, and watching in horror as your closest friends were devoured by a zombified Nazi battalion, you'd have to assume that things couldn't get much worse. In Martin's case, that was only the beginning.

The first one was a gory blast. But the second one tops it in every
conceivable way: This is a no-holds-barred splat-fest from the
beginning to the end which would make (the early) Peter Jackson proud!
I can take a lot of splatter, but I must admit: some scenes were so
disgusting that I was as much retching as I was laughing (a very
confusing experience - believe me), this movie really takes no
prisoners. And it really seems to want to make a statement against
political correctness: the elderly, the disabled, kids, mothers with
strollers, gays, heck: even babies(!!!) all get blown up or hacked to
pieces in such creative ways that even an old gore-hound like me was a
bit shocked (I must shamefully admit). Then again, when you're dealing
with Nazi-Zombies, that was to be expected.
But the film is also very well done; the camera, the music, the
sound-effects, and - most importantly - the make-up effects were
absolutely fantastic. Nazi-Zombies have never looked better.
A word to the wise, though: This film is absolutely not for the easily
offended (or people, who - unlike me - have a certain amount of taste,
decency and general common sense left).
Watch at your own risk - 8 stars out of 10 from me.
