I'm on the fence as far as this one goes. Take the legend of the Donner party, put a bunch of kids in a remote cabin in the middle of a snowstorm and let the two intersect.
It accomplishes what it wants to do and the story is fairly fresh, but the meat of it is just lacking. The main problem is that almost all of the characters are dicks, and there's very little sympathy built, therefore the tension just isn't there. There's some decent gore and kills but none of it's very moving. A little boobie gets sprinkled in but nothing very exciting. I guess that's pretty much my summation of the whole thing, competent but uninspiring.
