Set in the 19th century on the western frontier, an Army captain ans his regiment hear the grisly story of a colonel gone rogue, and venture out in the winter wilderness to find out what happened.

4. Frozen

No, not Disney’s “Frozen.” This one follows a group of friends hitting the slopes. They hop on the ski lift for one last run but resort employees shut down and leave, stranding them 40 feet up in the air for a long weekend while freezing temperatures set in.

Mike watched "Night of the Living Dead" on PBS when he was a little kid, and he thought it was a documentary. He's been hooked on horror ever since. By day, Mike is a UX writer. He lives in the Boston area with his wife and their golden retriever.
