Review of Dead of Winter (1987) by Steve S — 23 Jun 2011
** (out of four).
A diabolical shrink lures an actress, played by Mary Steenburgen to a remote cabin in upstate New York in the 'dead of winter'. He and his assistant trap her there and use her since she is a dead ringer for the sister of another patient. It works into a ranson plot.
The acting is fine, but I always have an issue with films where there is a double to someone else. It just isn't something that happens in real life and it makes the whole story unbelievable to me.
