(aka "Dead Mountain" or "Nagmi" or "Мина начинает тикать")
directed by Levan Bakhia
Georgia 2015
In the land of
post-HOSTEL "You can't trust a
foreigner" xenophobia, Daniel (Dean Geyer,
THE SAND) and Alicia (Spencer Locke,
MONSTER HOUSE) determine a trip to
Georgia and a camp-out in a former Russian
minefield with friend Chris (Sterling
Knight, 17 AGAIN) to be the perfect
pre-wedding jaunt. Joined by local Red Cross
park ranger friend Devi (Giorgi Tsaava,
TANGERINES), their celebrating is
short-lived when Chris accidentally steps on
a Russian mine. Forced to stand perfectly
still while Devi goes for help at the
nearest town four hours away, Chris knows he
must come clean about the one time he and
Alicia slept together once Daniel refuses to
leave his side. Daniel is suddenly not
feeling so loyal and leaves Chris and Alicia
to wait for help or for Chris to go kaboom,
whichever comes first. As Alicia exhausts
herself trying to dig a trench Chris can
hopefully jump into and escape injury from
the imminent explosion, both she and the
virtually paralyzed Chris are left
vulnerable to predatory Georgians like
hunter Ilya (Kote Tolordava) who makes
increasingly salacious demands in return for
the help they beg of him. As Alicia tries to
hold her own against Ilya and his shotgun,
Chris must literally think on his feet to
gain some degree of control over he
situation while rooted to a single spot and
sometimes only able to hear what is going on
between the other two. |

Comments |
Icon's dual-layer, high-bitrate treatment gives this digitally-lensed production a more than adequate encode with the image looking quite nice in general apart from some faint noise and crush in the darker scenes that appears to have more to do with the color correction than the DVD mastering. The Dolby Digital 2.0 stereo mix is adequate in conveying the dialogue and sound effects although the Australian Blu-ray edition of the film has a 5.1 track suggesting that six channel surround is the original mix. Optional English HoH subtitles help with some of the accented dialogue as well as translating the Russian and Georgian dialogue. There are no extras apart from an introduction by the Frightfest programmers and trailers for the four other 2016 Frightfest titles. |
