If you can get past some of the awkward dialogue and un-even acting, this is a good indy suspense thriller. It's pretty simple: 3 college students get stuck on a ski lift on a Sunday night . . . and the damned place isn't scheduled to open again until the following Friday. This leads to some pretty suspenseful, often nerve-wracking scenes.

I went to Best Buy to buy IRON MAN 2. I saw this on the shelf, it looked interesting, it played at Cannes, and there's a quote on the back of the box from Rex Reed that says he chewed through a pencil watching it . . . so I bought it. Overall, a pleasant surprise (but you may want to just rent it instead of buying it).
I've been wanting to see this for what seems like forever. I have it in my queue but it says short wait. uh huh. :smile:
Saw this recently. I was definitely impressed by it. very suspenseful and intense. Quite a big achievement also for having most of the film just set on a chairlift. A great watch.

Hopefully he got lead poisoning. :teddyr:
Thanks for the heads up Burgo! I've been looking to see this film for a long while now. Had no idea it finally hit DVD.
Fun Fact: It's directed by Adam Green. This is the same guy who made the amazing Hatchet a few years ago. This guy really has a great career ahead of him.

I love Adam Green. Hatchet was great. I hope he and Joel David Moore do more work together in the future.
