Review of The Last Winter (2006) by James C — 08 May 2009

While trying to set up a new drilling operation in North Alaska, the workers at an oil company are subjected to weird and fatal events.

This started off as a nice little movie, which kind of felt like "The Thing", but became more and more muddled as it progressed sacrificing lucid story-telling for artsy pretention. The shambles of a conclusion left me wondering why I had bothered sticking with it until the end. On the technical side, the acting was very good and the photography of the austere snowy landscape was amazing.
