Following a grueling five-week shift at an Alaskan oil refinery, workers led by sharpshooter John Ottway are flying home for a much-needed vacation. But a brutal storm causes their plane to crash in the frozen wilderness, and only eight men, including Ottway, survive.

Viewing Notes

First time in a while watching with a good Dolby surround system in place. During the plan crash scene I thought my living room was coming apart!

Still a haunting, grim, tense piece of film-making with an uplifting core, strangely enough. Despite all its death and adversity it’s really a film about faith and perseverance.
