Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAbout 9½ minutes into the film, there is a video short called 'Nutrition and Patriotism'. Several characters in this short say, "I'm doing my part." This is an homage to Starship Troopers' which also starred Casper Van Dien.
- GoofsThe Matterhorn is said to be located near Davos, in Southeastern Switzerland, in fact it is located just above Zermatt, in Southwestern Switzerland. LIkewise, in other shots the Matterhorn appears near a large town. This is a deliberate geographical error to underline the character of the film.
- Crazy creditsSPOILER: The Swissploitation Films logo is a parody of the Paramount Pictures logo, using the Matterhorn mountain and Swiss cheese wheels for the stars.
Featured review
This crowdfunded, swiss made exploitation movie, has almost everything one can hope for; splatter, clichés, memes, movie references and great visuals.
The amount of time and love invested in this movie really shines through. You can feel the filmmakers love for film. I was very impressed by the quality of the costumes, the sets, even the cgi. (Remembering it's a small production without any big companies involved and a budget that was crowdfunded) There are so many references to swiss culture beautifully incorporated.
This might be controversial and is probably more wishful thinking on my part but what I didn't like was that the film is in English. Of course it has to be to be view and enjoyed around the world, but as a swiss I believe swiss german could have made it much more hilarious. And probably also improved the acting. ( I got the feeling that because the non native english speakers had to speak english their acting suffered a little)
The acting in general varied. Over all it was not great but it also didn't have to be.
What I greatly disliked were the scene with the naked maid. (Portrayed by a swiss "performance artist"). It didn't add anything to the movie and every scene with her in it was like: Naked maid with big fake boobs enters the room - the men around the table start staring and salivating.
In conclusion: definitely worth a watch to not only support independent film makers but also have a fun evening with "the boys" (or girls) and a few beers.
