UK PREMIERE - Long-regarded as the Canadian answer to Stanley Kubrick’s THE SHINING, the 4K restoration of the Canuxploitation supernatural slasher classic based on the Wendigo legend. During a New Year’s Eve snowmobiling trip, three friends veer off the path to explore a private property. Stranded by a heavy snowfall, they stumble upon an abandoned hotel and seek refuge for the night. But before long, they meet a menacing woman who shares the building with her knife-wielding son and a mysterious creature who feeds on human flesh. Wintry isolation and madness rule in an essential entry in the New Year’s Eve horror canon.
