FROZEN Poster Makes Me Wish I Had a Slanket

Sometimes, down in my den in the basement of my house, it gets cold.   It’s one of the many reasons why I’m asking (and receiving) a Slanket this year for Christmas, so I can keep my arms, legs, and pretty much 98% of my toasty warm while still having my hands free to type away cute, little articles like this.   See that guy hanging off of the ski lift up there?   Yeah, he doesn’t have a Slanket.   In fact, he’s probably going end up a Popsicle before it’s all said and done.

FROZEN, the new film from Adam Green, who brought us HATCHET, is set to debut at Sundance’s Park City at Midnight next month, and it is one of the films at the very top of my can’t-wait-to-see-at-Sundance list.   The new poster comes to us courtesy of Shock Till You Drop.

In case you don’t know, here’s the official synopsis of the film:

On a chilly winter night, three skiers huddle together on a chairlift, confused as to why their ride to the summit suddenly stops. The sting of the icy wind worsens when the floodlights power down, leaving them stranded in the dark. As they wait for help, the reality of the nightmare hits them. The ski resort has just closed, abandoning the group stranded high above the mountain slopes in an oncoming snow storm. With ominous howls echoing through the surrounding woods, they will need to make some tough decisions in order to survive.

Writer/director Adam Green skillfully guides this real-world thriller, pushing three college students to confront their natural fears of the dark, cold, heights, and beyond, to see how far a human is willing to go to survive. With bone-chilling performances by Kevin Zegers, Shawn Ashmore, and Emma Bell, Frozen continues horror’s time-honored tradition of scaring audiences away from their favorite recreational activities.

FROZEN is set to debut at Sundance on January 24th.   Be sure to check our coverage for a review.
