Also known as The Chill Factor, this really weird TV horror gathers an icy vibe all its own.

Scientists Culp and Wallach are dropped off at a remote arctic experimentation center to continue high altitude/isolation research on a group of primate subjects.

But soon, strange phenomena begins occurring...the generator quits working...windows are mysteriously found open with -20 degree icestorms outside...electronic equipment turns on at will. Is there some supernatural force at work driving the two men to psychological chaos?

Channeling a bit of 1951's The Thing while at the same time hearkening forward to The Shining (1980), Cold is a triumph of mood creation: the claustrophobic halls and forced solitude constrict the viewer from its beginning to end.

Best scene: the closing moment with Wallach and his destroyer.
