The premise

In the Arctic region of Northern Alaska, an oil company's advance team struggles to establish a drilling base that will forever alter the pristine land. After one team member is found dead, a disorientation slowly claims the sanity of the others as each of them succumbs to a mysterious fear.

Horror Vault's take

Deep in the frozen Alaskan wilderness, an oil company's advance team begins to unravel after a colleague turns up dead under baffling circumstances. What starts as practical tension between environmentalists and industry men gives way to something far more primal, as the remote landscape itself seems to push back against human intrusion. A creeping, inexplicable dread infects the group one by one, blurring the line between rational fear and something ancient and unknowable. The Last Winter is a slow-burn nightmare that uses the vast, silent Arctic as both setting and antagonist.
