Brilliant, Intelligent and Scary without special effects

Rating: 10/10 (15 January 2006)

This film is deliciously scary. It is thoughtfully directed with these long camera shots that made me tingle. I enjoyed every minute of it. I'm surprised this film wasn't a hit. The dark, cold tundra is beautifully and hauntingly portrayed. There are no women in the film and that was a bit weird for me because I haven't watched a movie without female characters for a long time. Nothing is predictable in this film, the events twist and turn. The sound effects are really nice, just enough timbre to give it a long haunting feel. The other really cool part of the film, especially for the female viewers, was Kurt Russell. He looked fine! and with that rugged beard of his!
