At a remote Arctic research station, four ecology students discover the real horror of global warming is not the melting ice, but what’s frozen within it A prehistoric parasite is released from the carcass of a Woolly Mammoth upon the unsuspecting students who are forced to quarantine and make necessary sacrifices, or risk infecting rest of the world After reading some of the comments on this movie, I was more than pleasantly surprised at how good this smart little bug feature was

A definite step up from the usual B movie scifi horror crap that’s been out in the cinemas this year There were decent squirm effects and gore and a nice touch of tongue in cheek humour too The cinematography was cool and eerie and the brooding atmosphere had echoes of The Thing and Near Dark although it’s nothing like The Thing I thought the acting and direction were assured Don’t listen to some of the other reviewers on this forum as I doubt that they have actually seen the film.
