| A very solid movie
SPOILER: I was surprised to find how low grade this film received, since I found it be very good actually. With a low budget of what it had to deal with it turned out very good.

It deals with post apocalyptic colony underground while it is constantly snowing outside. It is showing very well how people turn into animals in self defense. We had a similar situation in Sarajevo in 1992-1995. When society fails, community is either doomed or it receives help from outside. Since in this film there was no help from outside even the remnants of the civilization left in the colony were attacked by a gang of cannibals.

If you like sci fi post apocalyptic films this one is for you.

Quotes

Sam: The world froze over a long time ago. So long ago that I can't remember the warmth of the sun. I heard stories growing up... How the planet grew hotter as our fuel was burned. How we made towers to work the weather. But the truth is... one day... it...

Goofs

Crazed cannibals or not, the people in the remote site were still human beings with human weaknesses. Being shot in the torso with a .30 rifle round would seriously injure or kill them, regardless of how "psyched up" that they were.

Crazy Credits

During the end credits, the credits go forward instead of going backwards.
