Dead of Winter 2025

The 2025 film Dead of Winter is an action-thriller directed by Brian Kirk and written by Nicholas Jacobson-Larson and Dalton Leeb. The movie stars Emma Thompson as Barb, a grief-stricken, resourceful widow who is traveling through the snow-bound backroads of northern Minnesota to scatter her late husband's ashes at a remote lake, fulfilling his final wish. Along the way, her journey is interrupted when she takes a detour to a secluded cabin and soon realizes that a desperate, armed couple (played by Judy Greer as "Purple Lady" and Marc Menchaca as "Camo Jacket") are holding a young woman, Leah (Laurel Marsden), captive and are intent on murder for a macabre medical motive. Isolated by a blizzard and without cell service, the pragmatic Barb is forced to confront the ruthless kidnappers, becoming the young girl's unlikely hero. The film is a tense survival story, with Barb using her ice-fishing and wilderness skills—often hinted at through brief flashbacks of her life with her husband (played by Cúán Hosty-Blaney and Gaia Wise as young Barb)—to outwit and battle the violent couple in the unforgiving, frozen landscape, culminating in a dramatic showdown on the frozen lake. The movie was released in theaters on September 26, 2025, with a running time of approximately 98 minutes. Read More
