Great concept but not really horror
There's a great concept behind this film that looks more like a documentary than anything else. Set in the 1970s, during the paranoia of the Cold War, scientists attempt to find those with telekinesis abilities like that of the Soviet Union. Except they get more than what they bargained for. While it's not frightening as such, it's an interesting film and seems pretty realistic.

A beautifully crafted ghost story full of atmosphere and vivid poignancy. The themes it portrays about war and grief are unsentimentalised yet moving. The backdrop of cold, winter and snow are on one hand symbolic of emotion but on the other are personnified to become almost a second protagonist. I'm a huge fan of classic ghost stories and loved Mosse's multi-layered tale with its historic and emotional twists.

1960s Cold War submarine based thriller, based on the novel by Scottish author Alistair MacLean, with this movie - I have heard - being so beloved of Howard Hughes that it aired on a Las Vega station he owned over 100 times during his lifetime.

The plot? Basically, a satellite containing stolen equipment has crashed in the arctic. The race is on to retrieve said equipment.

But who can be trusted?
