Strike Back below!
by: Paul Tassi Dec. 22, 2009

I showed you the poster for the “OMG we’re stuck on a ski-lift!” thriller the other day, but now we’ve got a full trailer courtesy of Apple. As expected, things get uncomfortable REAL quick, but after watching, I’m just not buying it.

I can’t tell if this is supposed to be tongue-in-cheek or not, as the situation just really doesn’t seem that perilous. As suggested by you guys when I showed you the poster, why can they not zipline down the cable or make a rope out of their coats? And am I really supposed to believe that the girl isn’t wearing gloves? Also, it’s not like they’re lost in the wilderness, as soon as they find a way to get down there are buildings everywhere they can break into for shelter, and hell, they probably f*cking parked under a mile away.

I don’t know, outside of a few rogue wolf encounters, I can’t really imagine this being that scary, can you? Watch below or head over to Apple for HD.

Extra Tidbit: I hope at the end of the movie Bear Grylls shows up any punches all of them in the face for being dumbasses.

I like what I see!!!
It gave me an "Open Water" feel, and that's one movie I dug a ton. While I have no fear of the situation, live in South TX, I can imagin thinking of this same very thing if I ever did ski.

Yes!
I honestly don't care about the haters, for me this is an original idea. In a decade of sequels and remakes I welcome this with open arms! Plus I would love to be in this situation with one of u this is laughable people, u probaly will be that person who will pussy out and look to the person next to u for help and comfort because u don't have the balls to back up ur mouth!

I've heard really good things about this, so I'm going to give it a shot even though the trailer ain't all that.

I think
most of the time the lift operator at the top rides the lift down so he would pass these knuckleheads on their way up, and know that they were on there, thus avoiding the problem. But this is Hollywood baby. In any case this is a rental at best. And noooo, you couldn't get out of the situation. Without jumping or falling. Good luck.

If I didn't know any better I honestly would've thought this was a College Humor parody.

what?
how is that situation easy to get out of if your a regular joe? use the rope as a zipline? ok mcgyver, you realize you need the proper equipment to make a zipline, right, you can't just make any rope into a zipline. using your coats as a rope will get you about a quarter of the way down if that, which is useless. the only thing i can think of is shimmying across the rope with your hands and...

Is this a real trailer or a parody trailer? I honestly can't tell. If this is a real movie it's beyond absurdly ridiculous.

No bud, we don't want more remakes...all we want is some common sense. To any person with common sense plus a small gift for problem solving, this movie will not be horrific in any way shape or form cause we're watching it thinking of so many things they could be doing to get out of it.

If they don`t freeze to death and somehow make their way down there, they`ll just get eaten by wolves.

Another crapfest
Not only is the premiss laughable, but the actors are just obnoxious. And one of them is that Ice Dork from the X-Men movies. Why the hell would I pay for this garbage.

So, the people want more remakes. It`s unfortunate that no one can enjoy an original concept anymore. Why do things have to be accurate? It`s more fun when it doesn`t make sense, especially in horror.

Looks alright
A few bad lines here and there, but overall looks better than Paranormal Activity. I thought the boyfriend in that movie was an idiot. All he needed to do was get rid of the girlfriend. End of demon problem.



And yes, ofcourse ski resorts have procedures to avoid something like this happening, but you know what? Shit happens. And the idea of freezing to death is pretty damn scary...

I'll say more
Standard procedure is the last person to ride the lifts are the operators at the top who ride the lifts down to go home. They would see our films heroes riding up and make sure they got off safely end of movie crisis avoided. Not to mention that many people have taken dares and jumped out of a ski lift early just to land in the fresh powder below. Only a crappy movie like this would make sure...

Not to mention that many people have taken dares and jumped out of a ski lift early just to land in the fresh powder below. Only a crappy movie like this would make sure there is a boulder or whatever directly underneath the lift. Which would make it hard because most resorts clear out the land directly underneath the lift just in case someone falls. This movie has to be a joke

Like I said...
This is an incredibly retarded plot and such an easy situation to get out of.



I also mentioned over at Arrow that it is standard procedure for the ski staff to take a snowmobile (or two) and make a visual check of all the benches before anyone leaves. They also cycle through the chairs for a proper count. Trust me, I know guys who work at a ski resort.

This is as stupid as it gets and I hope this movie is a complete failure.

agree with tec333
A ski mountain - closed for a week? During the on season? There's a line you cross where you make the plot so contrived that there's no tension anymore. Not only did they cross that line - they climbed in the General Lee, and did a fucking ramp jump over the line.
