From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Chill is an award-winning 2007 horror film written and directed by Serge Rudnunsky that stars Thomas Calabro, Ashley Laurence, and James Russo.

Contents

Development

The film was inspired by H.P. Lovecraft's "Cool Air".[1]

Plot

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette summarizes the plot as "Let's just say someone dies but cheats Death by harvesting flesh and dabbling in the occult."[2]

Reception

The film won Best Achievement in Fantasy and Horror at the Worldfest International Film Festival, was nominated for Best Horror Feature Film at the Shockerfest International Film Festival, and was an Official Selection at both the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival and World Horror Convention in Toronto.[3] DVD Verdict gave the film a reasonably complimentary review,[4] while Home Theater Info is definitely praiseful of the film asking readers of the review to "give this movie a chance and enjoy."[5] Slasherpool.com presents a bit more balanced view of the film describing a number of positives (the casting and directing) and negatives (the pacing and atmosphere).[6] Oddly enough, the DVD box art includes a quotation from the more balanced Slasherpool.com review: "Saw meets Nosferatu."[7]
