Synopsis
In the future, the Earth has been buried beneath a new Ice Age caused by global warming. Pockets of humanity sustain a precarious existence in tiny colonies. At Colony 7, people are banished when they develop colds out of fear that this could wipe out the remaining enclave, while there are those among the group who push for them to be summarily executed. When an emergency call comes from Colony 5, the leader Briggs asks for volunteers to mount an expedition. He is joined by Sam and the young Graydon. They trek across the surface to Colony 5, finding it deserted except for one frightened survivor. They then encounter a group of cannibal savages that have slaughtered all the other residents of the colony. They flee from attack by the cannibals with Sam being the only one who survives to make it back alive to Colony 7. There he finds that command of the colony has been taken over by Mason who wants to enact a harsher regime and execute the infected. Amidst this, Sam has difficulty convincing the hard-headed Mason that the colony is about to come under imminent attack by hordes of crazed cannibals.
