Dead Cold on AllMovie

In this suspenseful drama, a cozy second honeymoon turns into a nightmare when a compassionate young couple saves a lost hunter from freezing to death. Eric and Alicia's ordeal began months before when Eric was shot in the stomach during a car-jacking. Loyal Alicia helped with every step of his four-month-long recovery. As soon as he is sufficiently healed, the two head to the mountains for their long-awaited vacation. No sooner are they settled in before a cozy blaze when the door knocks and Cale, the lost hunter stands before them. The next morning, Eric goes to his truck so he can take Cale to the hospital, but the truck won't start. Suspiciously, Alicia rifles through Cales's belongings and discovers he carries no identification. Alarmed, the couple copes with the situation as best they can. Matters get worse when Cale makes it clear that he wants Alicia and considers Eric expendable.
