Wind Chill Audience Reviews

GazerRise Fantastic!
Stellead Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Gordon-11 This film tells the story of a young woman who accepts a ride back to her home town from her school mate. They take a short cut through the snowy terrain, and they get stuck in the snow. Sinister things begin to happen to them in the wilderness."Wind Chill" is takes quite some time to develop the story, as the two people meet, drive and talk in the car in an awkward manner. The sinister things start to happen about half way into the story, but I find these paranormal happenings not chilling enough. It is not that scary, and to be honest the appearance of that snake is bordering on funny in a weird way.For a low budget film, it is actually not bad, but it could have been better. I also give it extra credit for having the foresight to cast Emily Blunt in the leading role before she breaks out in "The devil Wears Prada".
Ide Clair I have always loved this movie. Emily Blunt breathes life into what could have been something really goofy. I am bothered by one glaring discrepancy, though. The gas station is on the opposite side of the highway from where they turn off to their shortcut. Yet, at the end of the movie, Emily comes out of the woods on the highway side of the gas station. I know she didn't cross the highway to get there.
DebtotheC Good and plausible film. SPOOKY! as hell, but with redeeming qualities. I felt bad things coming from the point that Blunt's character was forced to touch bare feet against "God know's what" on bare tile in a place she was unfamiliar with. (Something I could NEVER-EVER do.) I, personally, was knifed, sexually assaulted, and nearly bled to death in conditions very similar to the ones depicted in this film and thus you can understand why this was particularly scary for me. I remember praying to my long dead Grandmother and to God himself prior to finally being discovered and whilst watching this movie thinking to myself; "Why aren't they praying" or something equal to that thought process. Alas, they never did.
philipposathina Fantastic direction, threatening setting, amazing acting, But… but no, the plot was not at all satisfactorily explained! The intriguing - till before the ending -script left me wondering and wondering about what exactly I had watched! And since the ending in this genre of movies plays a very important role to the viewer's judgment, I have to admit that, to my great disappointment, lots of details were left unexplained in it! Was it so on purpose or it was due to the writer's inability to give an explainable ending to his story? I can't really tell! However, the fact that I have tried over and over to find the keys to the deeper understanding of the missing clues of this film, does mean a lot to me!!! It means that I was so totally taken by the horrifying , yet extremely tender story of its two characters (the "girl" and the "boy"), that, finding its deeper truth was, still is, something I just couldn't get away that easy without. Supposing that it was all in their shocked minds –after the accident- (like "Jacob's ladder, or "stay" or " wrong turn") seems comforting somehow, but not enough as it doesn't exactly explain everything, and certainly not the final scene of the boy's ghost leading the girl to salvation… Anyway, I was not bored for a single moment watching "wind chill". Besides that, the fact that all three times I have watched this movie, its ending has always left me devastated, with tears rolling down my face, means a lot to me! To make a long story short, it means that this film really "had a soul" which helped me become a part of its universe. And I think it will mean a lot to you too, if you let yourself free to feel its profound tenderness and look at it as a dark story of love, rather than a horror movie!
