Story Plot

Winter Rage is a 2025 American neo-Western survival film directed by Joe Carnahan (who also co-produced with Ridley Scott) from a screenplay by Jerry Bruckheimer and Taylor Sheridan. The first installment in the Winter Rage film series and distributed by Lionsgate, it stars Ryan Kiera Armstrong, Piper Rubio, Sam Richardson, Liam Neeson, Betty Gilpin, and Keegan-Michael Key. In the film, a 12-year-old girl and her younger sister must fend for themselves after becoming orphaned and refusing to be placed into foster care. Knowing that they will be kidnapped or killed by a mysterious figure following them, they seek help from their godfather, cousin, and grandfather, who all realize that they are safer not being adopted but still agree to aid them. Winter Rage premiered at the 82nd Venice International Film Festival on November 23rd, 2025, and was released in theaters on December 11th; it received generally positive reviews with praise for Armstrong and Rubio's performances, Carnahan's direction, the action sequences, and Hans Zimmer's musical score, while the film's graphic violence and portrayal of stalkers drew controversy. It grossed over $1.28 billion worldwide against a budget of $132 million and a break-even point of $260 million, making it the sixth-highest-grossing R-rated film of all time and Carnahan's highest-grossing film. A sequel is in development.

    Plot: After the deaths of their parents, sisters Dylan and Beth Adamson find themselves forced to survive in the wilderness and live in the cold temperatures with their bows, arrows, and knives. They also destroy their phones to avoid being tracked as they would rather live by themselves then be fostered. Weeks later, while their luck has greatly improved, the sisters realize that they are being followed; Dylan faintly hears the figure approaching her and Beth say "I'm a CPS agent!". However, when he gets closer and closer, she spots a needle in his right hand, and the sister run as fast as they can, barely outrunning him. Dylan quickly realizes that he is actually a serial killer, and when she notices a house, she and Beth go to it, though they become dazed and exhausted by the cold temperatures.

    Their godfather, Harvey Xavier, allows them to stay for the night, realizing that they need supplies to outrun the killer. Their grandfather and their aunt, William and Sapphire, supply them with food, ammo, and small pistols for emergencies, before the sisters leave the house on the next day.

    The sisters are once again stalked by the killer, who identifies himself as Rick O'Neill, a man who had escaped prison to carry out a killing spree. Dylan shoots him in his shoulder before she and Beth narrowly outrun him. Fortunately, Xavier was nearby and he warns William about this. Following close behind the sisters, he sacrifices himself to save them from O'Neill, who beheads him and continues his pursuit, though he realizes that he was poisoned by William in an attempt to stop him.

    Dylan and Beth are attacked by a wolf pack, and after outrunning them, they encounter O'Neill, now face-to-face with their stalker. After a fierce battle that results in O'Neill losing due to Dylan's speed, she and Beth leave him to be eaten by the same wolves they were chased by, with Dylan remarking that his death can be in the hands of God.

    However, the next morning, Dylan and Beth pass out after running due to the snowy weather. Upon waking up, Dylan realizes that she and Beth are in the den of the wolf pack; the alpha signals Dylan to arm herself, indicating that she must fight it in order for the pack to let her and Beth leave the den. Despite receiving numerous bites and scratches, Dylan narrowly survives her injuries with the help of a hallucination of her and Beth's parents, who encourage her to let go of her guilt over their deaths, before she turns the tide of the fight and stabs the wolf to death, forcing the pack to scatter. Dylan and Beth retreat to the mountains and find an abandoned cabin, still in good condition and stocked with supplies, indicating that the previous owners left it for any survivor who would find it.
