Wind Chill







Movie Info

Two college students heading home for the holidays break down on a lonesome stretch of highway, only to find themselves targeted by the malevolent spirits of other travelers who met their end on the same road in a supernatural road movie directed by Greg Jacobs, and produced by Steven Soderbergh and George Clooney. All she (Emily Blunt) wanted was to make it back home to Delaware for the holidays. Though her classmate (Ashton Holmes) has a working car and is happy to oblige by offering a ride, it quickly becomes apparent that the boy has been admiring her from afar for the entire semester. After hours of traveling on the lonesome snow swept roads, an ill-advised shortcut finds the young pair side swiped by a speeding car and hopelessly stuck in a massive snow bank. Now stranded in a cell-phone dead zone with nothing to eat and no heat, the pair gradually begins to suspect that they're not alone in this beautiful but foreboding landscape. After a run-in with a malevolent cop (Martin Donovan) provides little hope for rescue, a series of frightening apparitions begin to emerge from the chilly surroundings to suggest that these two students weren't the first to face a life or death struggle on this treacherous stretch of road

Here is a review from MetaCritic
Although it's a classic horror theme centered on a haunted place, the dialogue between two main characters is so well written, that youhave to live this film. In the end you don't know why, but you remember this creepy story as a ultimate experience. And the best thing in this movie is the perfect acting performance by Emily Blunt. She's really the star of this horror. Totally believable and so charming that she saves this not so horror movie and makes it worthseeing even twice or more times.

I saw this movie on Crackle
