MCT:September 24, 2008Two college students sharing a ride home during Christmas break, break down on a deserted stretch of road which is haunted by ghosts.
I didn't know a thing about this movie when I rented it. Ashton Holmes and Emily Blunt do a great job acting and when the ghosts show up, the movie gets honestly freaky. My only complaint would be that they didn't try hard enough to dig out the car. All they had to do was get dig the snow out from under the car with there hands. I live in Canada. We're used to snow.
A great supernatural horror flick that's worth checking out. -
MCT:September 23, 2008This movie had great potential to contain some good thrills and chills. With all the suspense in the beginning it actually seemed like it might get pretty scary, then the "action" started and was more disappointing than anything. It left me thinking "is that it?" every time the ghosts appeared. None of the antagonists were particularly scary... at all. Then after a certain point, the plot completely fell apart and the rest of the movie was pretty much downhill from there (frostbite teleportation- wtf?). I kind of felt like the writers gave up on making a film that actually made sense. I will give kudos to the director for making the viewer actually connect with the two main characters and... *slight spoiler* made me feel a little upset and shocked over the unfortunate fate of one of them.

Typical the-car-breaks down-and-you're-doomed storylines. -

With an unusually simple premise, this gimmickless 'chill', unfortunately, slides into more conventional territory once it approaches its somewhat dissapointing climax. Indeed, despite the quality of its photography, the emphasis on the characters' psychology and the hauntingly beautiful score that perfectly help set the ice-cold mood, the script runs out of steam as it goes along. That, however, is not to say it's without its creepy moments and effective jump scares, but down the line, there is a distinct 'something' missing. And that 'something' is what makes the terror frizzle and die two thirds of the way through.
Thankfully, both leads, especially Blunt, give intense and convincing performances to their (intentionally) thin protagonists. Their fear is so well-portrayed, both by them and the terrific cinematography, I swear I was freezing all the way through. You barely notice the restrained budget.
All in all, Wind Chill resembles a simplistic campfire tale more than anything-- and in my book, it's much more of a good thing than a bad one. -

A pretty decent low budget thriller, although it does start to get a bit weird. Overall watchable, especially if you like any of the More like this films mentioned!

This movie was pretty good,I swaerI was freezing the whole time watching this,lol.Anyway I will have to say it would suck beyond belief to ever get stuck in some crappy circumstances like that.

MCT:August 30, 2008I found this movie very interesting..Great twist and I found it romantic that a guy would do anything just to meet a girl but turns out to be a adventure..Had a few boring parts but kinda creepy

Wind Chill is an interesting effort. I've stopped hoping that the horror films I watch will eventually scare me, but this film is more the kind of story you'd hear around a campfire, suspenseful, entertaining, but not all that scary in the strictest sense. Still, Wind Chill has a certain appeal that people who are bored of the cookie-cutter "7 kids stuck someplace and the most obnoxious dies first" might find interesting. Hardly predictable albeit flawed and meandering, it's nice for once to see a film spend more then half it's length building the settings, the background and the characters before anything remotely scary happens. This film gives new meaning to "Taking the road less traveled" in more ways then one. Not for the ADHD crowd. If you are looking for a blood and gore fest it would be best for you to look elsewhere. All things being equal it's certainly worth a rental.

As I am thinking about this film now i think that it wasn't such a bullshit at all, interesting at some aspects, but I'm not that type of people who like kinda fake and unrealistic films. May be some fans of the ganre will be satisfied with this one.

Though pure fantasy and unreal-looking, it's a spiritual film about people's hidden passions and undisclosed feelings and thoughts.
-
MCT:June 3, 2008This is officially my favorite movie!! I love the story line and the actors! I watched it twice in a day and then watched it the next day to. My friend Sierra got tired of listening to me talk about it.

I watched this one knowing nothing about it. Slowly, the fear rose within me as I tried to figure out what was going on. Well played...

The start of this film had drawn me to a quick conclusion. What I thought was a chase through the woods psycho film, turned out to be a decent thriller.

A very well written low budget movie. For a movie that takes place in such a small area (on a secluded piece of snowy road) and almost entirely in the confines of a (wrecked) car, I truly felt a sense of tension. It was well paced and for a movie to rely so much on its characters, was well acted, too. The writer succeeded by not going for a cheap thrills ending.

Really nice little chiller. Sorry for the pun but ab all round good story with some shocks....well worth a viewing.
-
MCT:May 20, 2008This is godawful. The premise is stupid. The movie is poorly written and I couldn;t even pretend to care about wwhat happened to the characters.
major yawnfest. -
MCT:May 18, 2008
A lil' scare to know that place is full of ghost, the people from the past that always haunted us who still alive, hu?

It does a good job at setting an eerie atmosphere and stays that way although it has some major plot flaws that are too difficult to go along with.
-

Incredibly surprised how much I actually enjoyed this. Not only is it a lesser known gem, but I found it very scary in parts with loads of suspense. Emily Blunt is terrific as is Ashton Holmes. But they don't have enough chemistry for their characters.
-
MCT:May 7, 2008
Emily Blunt stars as a miserable bitch and Ashton Holmes seemed far too old for the character he was playing. The storyline was quite weak,it was like a tale you would tell to 5 year old girl guides.
