Not a true story
- The movie “Eight Below” is not a true story. While the film is inspired by a true event, it is not a direct adaptation of a real-life story. The screenplay was actually based on the 1983 Japanese film “Nankyoku Monogatari,” which itself was inspired by a 1958 Japanese expedition to Antarctica.
