Trailers: "Donner Pass" might be worth a look

Low budget? Sure, but "Donner Pass" also combines two of my favorite things, teens dying and history lessons. You could do worse.

In 1846, a party of settlers became snowbound in the Sierra Nevada Mountains and had to resort to cannibalism to survive. Some 150 years later, a group of teens on a ski trip discover that the curse of the Donner Party still haunts those mountains when members of their group start turning up not only dead, but half-eaten. Nothing - and no one - is what it seems in this provocative dark thriller. And history doesn't always stay in the past.
