"Scottish climbing instructor and documentary-maker Kirk Watson filmed South of Sanity while working for British Antarctic Survey (BAS).

Shot entirely in the Antarctic, the horror movie's cast and crew were made up of fellow BAS contractors and staff.

Sounds like a good film for the Cameo in downtown Fayetteville.

The original was set in the Arctic, unless they flew from Alaska to Antarctica!:D

The John Carpenter re-make was set in Antarctica, and (MOO) is one of the few films in which the re-make is better than the original.
