It had it all, except a decent script.

Written by Nicholas Jacobson-Larson and Dalton Leeb, both of which have been credited on some fine films, as musician and actor respectively. So, Dead of Winter was penned by two individuals without a single writers credit between them. How could it possibly go wrong? Watch this film, and find out.To give it credit, the soundtrack and acting were beyond reproach. In fact, in all aspects apart from the plot, it is a very good film, especially considering that it was likely made to a budget.It was however, an entertaining and involving 97 minutes, but only if you give yourself over to accepting the numerous bad decisions, plot holes, unfathomable motivations etc that it throws up at regular intervals. Thinking back, the dialogue was surprisingly believable, making it more frustrating to have it in service of such a sloppy plot.

Average

I just watched. My rating is 5.0 - average at best.What I like: the movie, most of all, has good cinematography. The barren, snow covered winter setting looks so peaceful, like someplace you'd read about in a Robert Frost poem. I like the lead actress. She is likable and charming, with her Sarah Palin-esque lines. The movie's set-up is excellent: the first 30-40 minutes really had me hooked, and I thought I was in for a great suspense/thrillerUnfortunately, I think the movie stumbles hard in the middle and end. The movie's pacing really begins to drag; certain scenes are drawn out to the point where they felt like fluff. Basically, I kept getting the feeling of, "Can this movie just move along now?" ... in addition, characters begin to make dumb decisions, like not killing someone when they have a chance. There's some bad CGI in the finale. The conclusion is unsatisfying. Given their intentions, the villains could and should have been presented with more shades of gray instead of the simple "they're the bad guys."It's an average quality movie at best5.0/10.
