Summary: 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 the rest of the world. (Anagram Pictures)

Too much emphasis on the political agenda, annoying.

I enjoyed this film. The political stuff was a little much, but generally well shot and well acted.

Just because wooly mammoths are all dead doesn't mean you can desecrate their memory like this. Show some respect.

Very bland boring and slow. Not a whole lot of suspense, horror or gore. The vomit scenes were kind of disgusting and I really liked the role that Val Kilmer played even though he had very little screen time. But this movie is so predictable. I've seen many movies like this except that this wasn't as good.

This wants very badly to be The Thing. Sorry, but not quite. The setting and mood manages to be fairly desolate/creepy and might even somewhat save this movie for you if you're really into that kind of thing (I kind of am), but the plot is really fucking stupid. Val Kilmer seems to be pretty obsessed with the global warming thing lately and rather than being an inoffensively mediocre horror flick, this appears to be pushing an agenda (just like The Steam Experiment did).

could have ramped up the body count and the gore, but otherwise it was a pretty decent parasite flick. the scenes with the bugs are scary enough--it's just that there are too few of them.
