The ultimate film to scare anyone from going into the mountains alone ever again, Cold Storage, makes its DVD premiere on May 4. Cold Storage stars Nick Searcy (The Ugly Truth) and Sean Bridgers (HBO’s “Deadwood”). The film received the Audience Award for Best Picture at the Dead By Dawn Film Festival, Scotland, and was the official selection at the Bendfilm, Seattle True Independent, First Glance, Fantaspoa, and Macabro Film Festivals. The DVD contains numerous featurettes that reveal all aspects of the making of the film plus a blooper reel. Fans of The Strangers and The Hills Have Eyes will want to add Cold Storage to their horror collection – if they dare!
When a brutal car accident takes place in the desolate backcountry, the only onlooker is Clive, a lonely man who lives nearby in an isolated shack. As he approaches the scene, he sees the girl of his dreams, dead among the debris. Certain that she is “the one,” Clive will do whatever it takes to keep her by his side. When the victim’s sister and boyfriend arrive, they quickly become unwitting hostages. Joelle Carter (American Pie 2) and Matt Keeslar (Scream 3) star alongside Nick Searcy in this bone-chilling film.
