A Stone Cold TV Spot for Anchor Bay’s ‘Frozen’
Opening February 5 is Adam Green’s Sundance Film Festival selection Frozen (review), which thus far has received mostly positive critical praise (we’ll have a second opinion from Ryan Daley shortly). With the chiller arriving in theaters next Friday, Anchor Bay has finally started to promote the flick on TV, with the first spot available for viewing below. Click here for theatrical locations and more info. Directed by Green (Hatchet), Frozen follows three skiers (Emma Bell, Shawn Ashmore and Kevin Zegers) who are mistakenly stranded on a chairlift, forced to make life-or-death choices that prove more perilous than staying put and freezing to death.
“A typical day on the slopes turns into a chilling nightmare for three snowboarders when they get stranded on the chairlift before their last run. As the ski patrol switches off the night lights, they realize with growing panic that theyve been left behind dangling high off the ground with no way down.
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.”
In the wake of this past weekend’s extended “Everything Must Go Edition,” which features 16 minutes of extra bonus footage from Kane Parsons after the movie, A24’s Backrooms is headed home soon, and A24 has dropped one more little treat ahead of the Digital release.
A24 has officially uploaded a video to YouTube titled “1 Hour of Backrooms Ambience,” and it’s probably pretty self explanatory by the title alone. The video no-clips you back into the Backrooms for an hour-long ambient experience, offering up the perfect spooky vibes to fall asleep to or keep running in the background while you go about your work day.

From A24 and director Kane Parsons, Backrooms is the second highest grossing horror movie of 2026, scaring up an incredible $349.7 million at the worldwide box office to date.
In the film, Chiwetel Ejiofor stars as the owner of Cap’n Clark’s Ottoman Empire. One night, he discovers a strange doorway in the basement of the furniture showroom. He sets out to explore the mysterious, liminal space, walking headfirst into a creepypasta nightmare.
Renate Reinsve (A Different Man) also stars in Backrooms.
Meagan Navarro wrote in her review, “Backrooms is at once complex and sparse, but never repetitive. It might be set in 1990, but it effectively captures modern anxieties and isolation in a way that frequently makes your skin crawl. While the journey ultimately loses steam by its cryptic end, Parsons’ visual representation of the human psyche disturbs like no other.”
YouTube prodigy Kane Parsons makes his feature directorial debut based on his creepypasta-inspired video series, which debuted in 2022 and has amassed over 190 million views to date.
