On Saturday we drove up to New York to see The Last Winter at the IFC Theater.  It was the only sucky, rainy day in weeks.  We drove up in the driving rain thinking the whole time that we should have turned back.  But we didn't.  Eventually, it stopped raining, but the sun never did come out.

Larry Fessenden, the director, was there to introduce the movie at it's New York Premiere ... but he (mysteriously) wasn't able to stay for the Q&A afterwards.  We were pretty disappointed, especially since we spent the first half of the day wet from the knees down and the second half of the day carrying around wet umbrellas just because we came up to see his movie ... but we aren't going to hold it against him.

The Last Winter is a great horror movie.  It's heavy on the character development, lets the horrors creep into the movie, and ties everything together with a socially conscious theme.  It was beautifully shot, which is saying a lot when most of your "set" is snow for as far as the eye can see.
