Viewing Notes
This horror anthology recently rec’d the blu treatment from Code Red so it’s popped up a lot in my TL. Was curious what the hubbub was about for this sorta long forgotten/lost flick so I fired it up on YT. I’m guessing (hoping) the new Blu is a restoration of sorts bc the version I’m watching on YT is essentially a bad VHS rip and looks terrible. But of course I’m viewing anyways bc I’d like to at least know the film a little better before dropping $25+ on an unknown. Oh apparently the initial release sold out! Haha
Anyways this is kinda funny that it’s made in Louisiana yet treats “winter” like a thing. Super indie flick that looks like it was shot on video.
