Ice Cold Killers is a diabolically dark true crime series set in the harshest of climates against a backdrop of pristine, rugged wilderness as unforgiving as the murderers themselves. Each episode is a psychological thriller that profiles a single sadistic act of evil...from the brutal rape and murder of an 11-year-old child...to a woman who narrowly escapes the clutches of a serial killer only to be hunted to her death...to a cross country killer who hibernates like a bear in the winter only to feast on the blood of another victim each spring. Dramatic recreations allow a distinctive stylistic approach, allowing each mysterious tale to fluctuate between moments of uneasy calm and blood curdling fright.
