While this has been out on R2 DVD since last year, it's finally hitting stateside and I really think this film didn't get the attention that it deserved. Written and directed by Larry Fessenden and starring Ron Perlman, the story revolves around an outpost in the arctic being used to study and build a road into the wildlife national refuge to drill for oil. A previous drilling attempt had been closed off and all that's left is a white box, but the permafrost is melting.. Check out the trailer after the break along with our review and pre-order link.

"The American oil company KIC Corporation is building an ice road to explore the remote Northern Arctic National Wildlife Refuge seeking energy independence. Independent environmentalists work together in a drilling base headed by the tough Ed Pollack in a sort of agreement with the government, approving procedures and sending reports of the operation. When one insane team member is found dead naked on the snow, the environmentalist James Hoffman suspects that sour gases may have been accidentally released in the spot provoking hallucinations and insanity in the group. After a second fatal incident, he convinces Ed to travel with the team to a hospital for examination. However, weird events happen trapping the group in the base."
