Black Mountain Side is a psychological thriller from director and writer Nick Szostakiwskyj. The film is set in the Great White North aka Canada. Here, several archaeologists uncover an underground structure, which causes a strange psychological affect. Very similar to The Thing (1982) in plot and genre, Black Mountain Side stars Shane Twerdun (She Must Burn), Michael Dickson, Carl Toftfelt and Marc Anthony Williams. The film's first exciting trailer is hosted here. The trailer shows the archaeologists uncovering something in the snow. A small celebration takes place. But then, the characters begin to experience hallucinations and a general psychological breakdown. How far will these explorers descend into the depths of their paranoid minds and will they ever return? Black Mountain Side has toured several film festivals, recently. The film was just at the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival, in Portland, Oregon. Now, this title has a date with DVD, through Monarch Home Entertainment.

The concept of finding something in the snow that you shouldn't mess around with isn't a new one. The concept has been at the center of any number of horror movies, most famously The Thing, but that's not to say there isn't mileage left on the idea. At least that's what writer/director Nick Szostakiwskyj is hoping for.
Black Mountain Side stars Shane Twerdun, Michael Dickson, Carl Toftfelt, Marc Anthony Williams and Andrew Moxham as a group of researchers who uncover a stone structure which features archaic writing none of them recognize. When the group begins to research where the structure came from, things start to go wrong: some expedition members go Awol while the rest are struck by a mysterious illness which begins to spread through camp.
