[Twitch is undergoing some behind the scenes tire kicking and bolt-tightening over the next few days, work that may slow down the regular flow of new information a little bit. So, while that's going on we'll be presenting a series of retro-reposts, pulling forward the all time top ten videos since we moved to our current video system. This post originally appeared May 28.]
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the most blatant, hysterical, scantily clad and very likely effective piece of viral marketing ever made. When the lads behind Norwegian Nazi zombie comedy Dead Snow felt the need to put together a promotional video to plug the upcoming Norwegian DVD release - coinciding nicely with the upcoming US theatrical run - did they make something featuring Nazis? No. Zombies? None of those either. No, what there is is a whole lot of Linni Meister, Norwegian FHM model and columnist (they hired her for her writing skills! honest!) turned pop singer following a stint on the Norwegian version of Survivor. Yes, I looked her up. Research is a harsh mistress sometimes ...
Anyway ... what did Linni come up with? A charming little ditty titled - very appropriately - My Ass. It's all about her ass and how nice it is. There are no zombies in the song whatsoever. How does this count as viral marketing? You'll have to watch to see ...
We've got the uncensored version of the song's video below the break and while not exactly R rated it does push the envelope enough that it was yanked from YouTube for violating their terms of service.

No sound on the video. But do we even need it?
She's very well developed. Good job!
Damn ... that's actually the first time I've had an MP4 not upload properly. The joys of video encoding ... I'm trying to correct it now, much funnier with the audio working.
Every company shall sell there products like this. HELL!! Ill by every god dam product that girl shows!
I took a long good look at her ass. I didn't last very long. Hey-oh!
As someone who was anticipating this film, I must protest that I find this ad utterly offensive and thoroughly disgusting. It is an absolute moral outrage that Linni Meister and her ass (and breasts) were not cast in the film in any capacity. The producers have kicked us all in the balls with their pathetic non-Meister-inclusive filth. BOOO!
Why is it that half of these damn vids never work for me!
Linni, I'd like to reside you in the old well in my basement, and listen to your horse screams.
I think I could look at your ass then for a long time.
Question is: How long do YOU think you'd last?
Well, the vid was just slightly less entertaining than Dead Snow itself, which I found to be a big letdown. Great concept, poor execution imo.
That is brilliant! I laughed myself silly! Good on them for using the one thing horror fans cannot resist...nipple pasties.
Horrible song, horrible voice, GREAT ass. I thought it was funny.
Gunde, you left out horrible face.
Crap, that was a good laugh but now I can't get that song out of my head...
Hey pokute, if you mean something like this...
HER ass
I'm definitely taking a good long hard look, I mean long, I mean...
Oh, and Todd, thank you, thank you, thank you...while trite and annoying I couldn't stop watching
that's f* brilliant!
Linni Meister voice is kinda childish, but who cares!
