If you loved Rasputin: The Mad Monk, try Bear Island

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Don Sharp, and they both carry the dread, slow burn mood tags. If that's the register that drew you to Rasputin: The Mad Monk, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Bear Island is

Arctic winter. A lone helicopter’s blades cutting the silence. Three travelers step onto a frozen island, their stories tangled like fishing line. By dawn the wind carries the scent of diesel and something else—blood on snow. A thriller where every step echoes Hitchcock by way of a 70s paperback cover.
