Winter Cabin (2018) by Michael Huntsman

Yuching Tsai, a 23-year-old Taiwan-born and NYC-based international actor/ filmmaker, recently finished her first written-produced-starring English short film “Winter Cabin”. The film deals with a couple, Norman and Roxy, trying to survive a devastating bio-chemical war, which broke out in the Us. As they are trying to find food, they also have to deal with Norman’s psychological issues.

The film tries to deal with environmental issues and human relations, although I felt that the most interesting aspect is Norman’s mentality and the way Roxy deals with it, in a message that seems to state, “love conquers all”.

Sam Schmitz’s cinematography is quite good, as he paints the setting with bright white lights (for the most part) that suit the subject quite nicely. The same applies to the acting, with Yuching Tsai highlighting her character’s vulnerability and Bernard White as Nolan, an extreme passive aggressive behaviour.

However, the woman does not realize that the issue with Cobra’s genitalia, that has actually given his nickname, will bring them so much trouble. Soon, they find themselves stuck (you know what I mean) and having to face scores of enemies that include agents in black suits and samurais, as they embark on a trip that brings in a number of places.

Taking the sex and shooting scene from Michael Davis’s “Shoot “Em Up” as its base (parodying it actually), Tomohiko Iwasaki directs a truly preposterous film,...
