Studio Synopsis: "The Last Winter" is a gripping psychological thriller from indie-horror maverick Larry Fessenden ("Wendigo," "Habit"). The harrowing tale of an Alaskan oil-dredging expedition gone mysteriously awry, the film mines timely, very real fears for classic chills – a grown-up ghost story for our ecologically unstable times.

Evoking the stark terrain of John Carpenter's "The Thing," Fessenden urgently explores the frightful consequences of man's disruption of the natural world – mother nature's coming wrath in the era of global warming. Distinguished from the current glut of splat-pack diversions, "The Last Winter" is an intense and soulful work of true horror, with unshakable images and compelling performances by its ensemble cast.
