A handful of people wind up stranded in a snowy mountain area in the wake of an airplane crash. They seek refuge in an old abandoned cabin. Moreover, the group find themselves being terrorized by a lethal predatory extraterrestrial beast residing in the basement of said cabin. Boy, does writer/director Paul Gagne strike out something rotten in every possible way with this mind-numbingly awful stinker: Slack (non)direction, sluggish pacing, terrible acting from a lame no-name cast (Merry Simkins cops the grand booby prize for her insufferably shrill portrayal of hateful whiny shrew Sandy), murky washed-out cinematography, zero tension or spooky atmosphere, tin-eared dialogue ("I'm scared, baby"), tacky gore, shoddy (far from) special effects, uniformly obnoxious and unlikable characters, an overly talky and meandering script, a generic hum'n'shiver score, and a pitifully hokey and unconvincing rubbery monster. Only a surprisingly hot lesbian love scene and some tasty gratuitous female nudity manage to make a favorable impression. A total clunker.

Watched this movie on zone horror one night during a bout of insomnia. I can honestly say that it is one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Basically, 7 survivors of a plane crash set up camp in deserted hut during a snowstorm but soon find themselves picked off one by one by a flesh eating alien. I thought it sounded like it could be pretty good - I couldn't have been more wrong.The directing, editing, lighting, acting, special effects - in fact, pretty much EVERYTHING about the movie - are absolutely terrible. The plot is basically non-existent. The movie is peppered with various scenes in which the actors are quite clearly standing in front of a blue screen. It really has to be seen to be believed, its THAT bad. Oh and there's also a random lesbian sex scene thrown on for good measure.An embarrassment to all involved.

This film is so monumentally bad on every level it is honestly quite hard to believe :-) Everything you want to say about this film uses terms that have no place anywhere near this masterpiece - acting, special effects, plot, characters, take your pick .... none of them are here. It's worth watching for a benchmark to compare all other films by (although on zone horror it has some stiff competition as it's my new favourite place for truly bad films). Three things to watch out for in the film are 1) The spectacularly poor special effects - truly, truly jaw droppingly bad - done by his mate for a pint and a curry I suspect 2) The randomly changing and wildly fluctuating film quality 3) The everlasting 6 shot pistol (I think it must be belt feed!) Go on - it's 2 hours of your life you won't get back, but you will remember it.

Saw this on Zone Horror the other night, couldn't believe my eyes at how bad this movie really is!!! Most of the 'Action' *cough* takes place in this hut thats supposed to be snowbound but there's no sign of snow outside.The main alien looks like one of those rubber pencil top wobblers you used to be able to buy in the 70's.The acting,(ha-ha) was more wooden than Queen Victorias teeth, and near the end when they are trying to dig themselves out of the hut the snow they are digging resembles polystyrene packing material.Shocking bloody shocking.
