Cinema:Frozen
The kid who plays Iceman in the X-Men flicks (Shawn Ashmore) plays one of a trio of snowboarding friends stuck on a chairlift as the lights go out and ski patrollers leave the hill. With the resort closed until the following weekend and frostbite and hypothermia already setting in, the trio is forced to take desperate measures to escape off the mountain before they freeze to death. Once they make their move, they discover with horror that they have much more to fear than just the frigid cold. As they combat unexpected obstacles, they start to question if their will to survive is strong enough to overcome the worst ways to die. Anybody else think it’s funny that the kid who plays Iceman is in a movie called Frozen? Check cinema websites for showtimes

Video: Zombieland
A cowardly shut-in named Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg) is forced to join up with a seasoned zombie-slayer named Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson) in order to survive the zombie apocalypse. As Tallahassee sets out on a mission to find the last Twinkie on Earth, the duo meets up with Wichita (Emma Stone) and Little Rock (Abigail Breslin), two young girls who have resorted to some rather unorthodox methods to survive amidst the chaos. Reluctant partners in the battle against the undead, all four soon begin to wonder if it might be better to simply take their chances alone. Eisenberg, who brought the overeducated,-underskilled-college-grad type to life in Adventureland, once more sets off into the breach – only this time with zombies.
