Review of Wind Chill (2007) by Corey N — 06 Sep 2007

During Christmas break, a young woman catches a ride home from a.

Stranger she meets through a college ride board.

Racing to beat a severe winter storm, the two young travellers take a.

Shortcut down a remote country road, only to find themselves forced.

Into a snow bank by a mysterious vehicle that engages them in a.

Dangerous game of chicken.

Over the long night that ensues, an intense relationship develops.

Between the pair as they must brave the elements and confront the.

Road's sinister legacy...

Borrowing heavily from the much more satisfying 'Dead end', wind chill.

Starts of really well, a hitcher like movie where we don't know why the.

'Guy' is willing to help the 'Girl' so much. well it just turns out.

That he has got a little school boy crush, that becomes worryingly.

Stalkish as the drive home continues.

The film stalls after they leave the gas station, and its a case of the.

Old 'this long quiet road is a short cut' and of course, the car.

Crashes after having a run in with some unknown entity.

The film has been done and recycled before, with much better results,.

But it's no fault of the cast, the two leads are great in their.

Respective roles, it's just that the back story has no depth to it, and.

Really happens toward the end.

Spooky looking people come and go and in the end it all becomes rather.

Lethargic.

Wind chill left me feeling rather 'cold'.
