War of the Dead is a Finnish horror movie that was released in 2011. Directed by Marko Mäkilaakso, the movie is set during World War II and revolves around a group of American and Finnish soldiers who are on a mission to destroy a Nazi bunker located deep in the woods of Eastern Europe. The film begins with private John Martin, an American soldier who is sent on a mission to assist a Finnish unit in their fight against the Nazis. As the group makes their way into the woods, they encounter a squad of Russian troops who have been slaughtered by an unknown force. The group soon discovers that the source of the carnage is a horde of reanimated Nazi soldiers who are determined to wipe out anyone in their path.

As the American and Finnish soldiers fight to survive against the wave of undead Nazis, they begin to piece together the sinister plot that led to their reanimation. It's revealed that the Nazis were experimenting with a serum that could bring the dead back to life, and they were using prisoners of war as guinea pigs in their horrific experiments.

The soldiers soon realize that the only way to put an end to the undead threat is to find and destroy the source of the serum. But as they make their way deeper into the woods, they begin to face even more horrifying creatures, including mutated monsters that are the result of the Nazi's twisted experiments.

The film's battle scenes are intense and gory, with plenty of gunfire and explosions to keep action fans satisfied. But the film also has a hauntingly atmospheric quality, with the eerie woods and abandoned bunkers providing an unsettling backdrop to the action.

Andrew Tiernan delivers a solid performance as Private Martin, an experienced soldier who finds himself in a situation beyond his wildest nightmares. Jouko Ahola and Samuli Vauramo also bring depth to their roles as Finnish soldiers who are grappling with their own personal demons as they fight for their lives.

Visually, the film is impressive, with some excellent practical effects that bring the undead Nazis to life. However, there are moments where the film's low budget shows, particularly in some of the CGI-heavy gore sequences.

Overall, War of the Dead is a thrilling horror movie that successfully blends the genres of war and zombie flicks. With its intense action, impressive visuals, and haunting atmosphere, it's a must-watch for fans of both genres.

War of the Dead is a 2011 horror movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 25 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.1.
