    If you do, I could recommend a spicy but really unconventional twist on it. A lot of shitty movies like this have Wikipedia plot summaries that are lacking, inaccurate in small ways, etc. Watching it for the sake of reviewing and possibly revising that summary is a kind of perverse joy that feels impossible to sell to someone who's never tried. For example, I rewrote the summary for [*Whiteout* (2009 film)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whiteout_%282009_film%29), and it was *way* more fun than…

    Today my partner was trying to explain something to me about Antarctica research stations and I cut him off and said, “I know all about those, I read Whiteout by Adriana Anders.” #romancelandia science! (Also I grew up on the X-Files and have seen the first movie like twelve times).!

    I love MASH and Picket Fences , but I'll always remember Tom Skerritt from @stevelieberart.bsky.social 's WHITEOUT movie. Besides the chopped off finger, he was the best part of that film. RIP 💕

    #JustWatched #FilmSky #MovieSky #Whiteout (2009) U.S. Marshal Carrie Stetko tracks a killer in Antarctica as the sun is about to set for six months. 2/5⭐️- #KateBeckinsale tries her best, the movie… not so much.

    Funny you say that because I just watched WHITEOUT, which is not a good movie. Would love to see a movie of NIGHT WITHOUT END, but it can’t be done well unless they actually go somewhere cold to shoot it.

    This is a bit random, but I was thinking that the worst movie I've ever seen in a theater is Whiteout, with Kate Beckinsale. The Spanish title is Terror en la Antártica (Terror in Antarctica), but it wasn't scary at all, it was just a forgettable thriller.

    Your Day 9 prompt for #HQAdventCalendar is Isolation, which isn't often difficult to find in a wintry horror film. Why not give the (purportedly not great) Kate Beckinsale title, WHITEOUT (2009) a try?

    I remember Rucka talking about the WHITEOUT movie, and how going on-set made him realize just how precarious the filmmaking process is.

    Also I just remembered that we watched Whiteout, not in Antarctica but at Summit Camp in Greenland bc the Tucker Sno-Cat featured in that film was in active use at camp as of 2021. The mechanics called her "Kate."

    Every winter I reread parts of The Winter Fortress. Norwegian commandos skiing dozens of miles across land close to & much like that they used to film the planet Hoth. Whiteout conditions, wind that knocks you down, & endless hills. And they all knew the Nazis could not touch them. Norwegians man.

    I just thought of another silly question that I'm not sure I know why it didn't occur to me before. What #whiteout method or product works best with #FountainPen ink? I just watched a brief niki.notebook short on Sailor's Dipton Marshmallow white dip pen ink. My favorite whiteout for years was either Pentel's ZL31-W liquid pen-type applicators or Tombow's tape. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PvcLCWvsGw

    WHITEOUT is one of my all-time favourite comics, but I've never sat down and watched the movie. I heard it...wasn't so great. Even the comic writer, Greg Rucka, didn't care for it.

    Yeah, WHITEOUT is no doubt easier to watch here in Japan. (I notice its default Letterboxd poster has no English text.) Not a top-tier action movie, but fun.

    Nice, you included WHITEOUT. My perpetual complaint with this sort of list is that HARD TO DIE is a supernatural slasher comedy — a remake of SORORITY HOUSE MASSACRE II, in fact — and is sneaking onto the list by virtue of its title. If it's a Die Hard movie, then so is, say, DEMONS.

    Watched the film version of Greg Rucka & stevelieberart.bsky.social 's Whiteout last night & I swear, Rucka can't buy a break in movies. The book is a perfectly good comic, but god, there's nothing in the movie that reads as real. Inept at every turn. Not better than Heart of Stone, which is awful.

    The Ultimate Movie Review! - http://tss5078.blogspot.com - @tss5078 - When I first saw the previews for Whiteout, I didn't think it would be anything special. It wasn't until Netflix recommended it for me and I read the description, that I thought there might be something there. While the previews made it look like some arctic nightmare, the truth is that it was a pretty great film. The story is centered around a U.S. Marshall, stationed at the base in Antarctica. For more than 3 years, she…
