"I said no food. I didn't say there was nothing to eat."
It's 1848 and Captain John Boyd (Guy Pearce) arrives in the depths of winter to snowbound Fort Spencer. Then a stranger named Colquhoun (Robert Carlyle) appears with tales of his group succombing to cannibalism to survive. Once recovered Colquhoun leads a party to find survivors, but can an admitted cannibal be trusted?
Enjoyable and well nuanced period piece, shot through with a strain of dark humour, to mix in with the gore.
