As the title indicates this is a story, not built upon, but using material from Kill Bill but also - as in the case of Tarantino's film - a number of other more or less well known cinematic oeuvres.
We didn't find Kill Bill (no 1 or 2) being films worth seeing and this humorous(?) version planted in Lappland, must be regarded as a fiasco - to put it mildly.
Why did we buy this DVD? Because the director, Tommy Wirkola was the originator of Død snø (Dead Snow), the nazi-zoombie-film we saw a couple of years ago and a film we appreciated in all it's absurdity.
In this case we meet Jompa Tormann (Stig frode Henriksen), a sami whose family and friends are being killed by a gang led by Tampa (Martin Hykkerud) and Papa (Frank Arne Olsen) Buljo, at the party celebrating Jompa's upcoming wedding.
Parenthetically one can mention that the party was held in Kautokeino, a small village also used in the film The Kautokeino Rebellion (Kautokeino-opprøret).
Jompa survives the attack and now sets out to find and eliminate the Buljo gang, first learning Martial Art by a 'master'.
The stupid police officer (Tommy Wirkola) with the 'mega-stupid' colleague of course believes that it's Jompa who is responsible for the killings but one of his female officers soon finds out that this is not the case and sides with Jompa.
This is an extremely bad film, resembling a teenage-we-will-try-to-make-a-movie-with-no-means-and-no-ideas-film, using material from every single film you can think being of use in the plot, blending it with a prejudicious portrait of the sami population.
One of the worst films we've seen in a long time!
Tarantino is said to have liked the trailer but I think he must have been disappointed by the feature film - I hope!
