Liam Neeson takes on a pack of Alaskan killer wolves in this intense survival thriller.

A group of oil rig workers are flying over the wilderness of Alaska when they're involved in a devastating plane crash. Injured and traumatised, the survivors crawl from the wreckage knowing that they have only a few days to find a way home before they are overcome by the elements. But there's another problem - a vicious pack of rogue wolves are out to hunt them down. Buoyed by memories of his life back home, tough team leader Ottway (Liam Neeson) is absolutely determined not to go down without a fight. That means using every weapon at his disposal to swing the odds in his favour. Resourcefully, he even tapes shards of glass to his knuckles for man-on-wolf combat! Written by Ian Mackenzie Jeffers and directed by Joe Carnahan, this adventure thriller from packs a mighty visceral punch.
