Necrosis (2009)

Horror/Sci-Fi     Not Rated

Plot

In 2009, six friends arrive at an isolated cabin to enjoy a long weekend in the snow. An epic snowstorm interrupts their vacation, trapping them on the mountain and resurrecting the haunting ghosts of the Donner Party. But, are they true 'entities' or is it simply 'cabin fever' that brings out their fears and darkness, causing friends to turn against each other as reality deteriorates around them.

Acting

The cast includes Several Recognizable Faces, with James Kyson Lee, George Stults, Tiffany, Penny Drake and Danielle DeLuca starring and cameos from Michael Berryman, and Mickey Jones. Although i feel like some of these cast members do indeed have some talent, all are very bad here. Some of the blame however, could certainly be blamed on the bad script.

Gore

A few brief scenes of cannibalism, and some minor blood splatter.

Sex/Nudity

During a dream sequence a women is seen topless while seducing a guy, but ends up eating his organs.

Final Thoughts

There are a plethora of recognizable faces in this movie, some of which have proven to be solid actors previously, but they really seem awful here, as the script has very poor dialogue, that really held the movie back. The story itself, which involved ghosts of the infamous Donner party, was not bad although I wasn't of big fan of the one major plot twist. The direction I also felt was pretty good, as not scenes really seems too out of place or random. A disappointing film overall , that I believe could have been pretty good had it had a better, script, specifically with the dialogue. It's also a movie that really could have been helped had it had alot of gore to go along with a decent story, and too take away from the verbal scenes a bit.
