“The Last Winter updates The Thing for our own epoch. Only this time, the villain isn't something from outer space: it's us.” - Toronto Film FestivalStarring Ron Perlman as a gruff he-man, The Last Winter takes us to a remote base in northern Alaska where a motley crew of adventurers encounter something out of the ordinary while constructing an environmentally damaging oil well. With an emphasis on the dynamics of characters, offbeat plot and a slow-boil sense of environmental threat, this horror-thriller avoids the usual checklist of the genre. The most harrowing scenes emphasise real-life perils, like falling through thin ice into freezing water. Larry Fessenden's previous films include Habit (1997), in which he was also lead actor, and Wendigo (2001). “Fessenden does Al Gore one better.” - Hollywood Reporter
