Donner Pass is a horror-thriller movie from 2011, directed by Elise Robertson, starring Russ Russo, Joel Stoffer, and Desiree Hall. The movie revolves around a group of young people who set out to explore the infamous Donner Pass, where a group of pioneers famously got stranded and ended up resorting to cannibalism to survive. The story takes place in the present day, and the group of young people is led by a pessimistic and skeptical character named Nicole, played by Elise Robertson. Nicole is at the center of the film, and her skepticism and cynicism are the driving forces behind the plot. She is convinced that there is nothing in the Donner Pass but a bunch of old, boring history, and that the rumors of supernatural occurrences and strange happenings are just fables made up to scare people.

However, as the group enters deeper into the forest and the mountains, they begin to realize that Nicole's skepticism was misplaced. Strange occurrences begin to happen, and the group begins to encounter ghosts and other supernatural entities that seem to be drawn to their presence.

As the group becomes more and more lost in the Donner Pass, they begin to uncover the gruesome history of the pioneers who had been stranded there years earlier. The group is introduced to the story of the Donner party, and the brutal lengths they had to go to in order to survive. They also begin to uncover a more recent history of the area, surrounding the mysterious disappearance of a group of hikers who went missing years earlier.

As the group becomes more and more engrossed in the darkness of the Donner Pass, they begin to experience strange visions and confrontations with the ghosts of the Donner party. Nicole, in particular, becomes increasingly haunted by the ghosts of the past, as she is forced to confront the idea that history can repeat itself, even in the most unexpected ways.

The movie builds to a tense and chilling climax, as the group fights to escape the Donner Pass and survive the terrors that await them. The film draws on both the historical context of the Donner party and the supernatural horror genre to create a unique and haunting vision of the infamous location.

Overall, Donner Pass is a well-crafted horror-thriller that will appeal to fans of both historical horror and supernatural horror. The film is built around a strong central character, with a compelling and intriguing backstory, and has a tense and atmospheric tone that keeps the audience on edge throughout. For anyone interested in exploring the darker corners of American history, or in experiencing a chilling and suspenseful horror movie, Donner Pass is definitely worth checking out.
