Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

Dotbankey A lot of fun.

meddlecore This cinemasochistic Christmas horror classic is a weird blend of what is, at times, competent- even good- filmmaking; mixed with bad decision-making and some of the worst moments of acting fails you will ever expect to make it to the screen.It tells the story of a serial killer, who gets turned into a Killer Snowman, after being exposed to an experimental chemical in a car crash- while being transported to his execution.Now, this crude, cigar smoking, snowman sadist is on the lamb...and out to kill. And he has acquired the ability to melt and re-animate himself at will.The Sheriff who originally busted Jack, before his transformative experience, is the only one who suspects that Jack is somehow responsible for the recent spate of murders that have been plaguing their town.But the FBI intervenes, and seems to be covering something up...for someone. That someone being a chemical company who has designed an experimental substance that has the potential to harbour and transmigrate the soul- like what happened to Jack, when he was exposed during the crash.Will they be able to figure out how to stop- and destroy- Jack, before he snow-rapes and kills everyone in town? I guess you'll have to watch for yourself and find out...if you want to subject yourself to that...As was previously mentioned, both the acting and special effects are hit and miss, in this one. At times they are kind of great, but mostly they are just bad. Really bad.It is, however, worth a watch for all the cheesy-as-hell one liners that it contains. Well, that, and the patently ridiculous storyline...which is definitely good for some laughs.4.5 out of 10

powermandan I remember be a kid like 5-years-old and seeing the front cover of this at a video store and being scared to death. The cover of this is pretty scary and makes the movie look like an full, all- out horror movie. But out can a movie about a killer snowman really be that bad? Truth is, the front cover is misleading: the snowman looks like just a regular snowman that was made with a subpar budget. It is evident that this is low-budget, but there are so many funny and cheesy moments.Jack Frost is a serial killer who is being taken to the death penalty and crashes into a car with a new experimental liquid that makes him become of snowman. That cliché has been done so many times, so who cares? After he becomes the snowman, he opens up giant cans of whop-ass on everyone he comes in contact with. They are all corny and creative and he comes up with hilarious puns along the way. Like there one part where he kills a guy with an ax and says "I only 'axed' you for a smoke." There's another scene where he kills Shannon Elizabeth (in her debut) in a way where you can see how the robotics are being done. No big deal.This movie is awesome and hilarious! Ignore the Michael Keaton movie called Jack Frost.

breakdownthatfilm-blogspot-com Ever since slasher flicks became popular with the release of films like John Carpenter's Halloween (1978), many films have been produced that have been influenced from ones of the past. But then there came another wave of slasher films that occurred during the holiday season. The one's that viewers thought that no one would ever desecrate. This movie is apart of that family and it was released at a peculiar time as well. The title is the exact same as the Michael Keaton family holiday film a year later. However, this is the exact opposite of a family film.This horror slasher film is about a serial killer named Jack Frost who is caught by a town sheriff and sent off to death row where his transport crashes into a chemical truck. The chemicals are then absorbed by Frost and his surroundings (the snow) and become a mutant killer snowman, ergo his moniker. Is this the least bit scary? If you don't like evil looking snowmen I guess. Its genre is in horror but there truly isn't anything to be terrified of. Unfortunately, the film suffers from an over the top villain and too much campiness. I feel like director/writer Michael Cooney had intended this but think about it, who could take a killer snowman seriously? And Cooney has made better works, Identity (2003) is his best.However, this isn't to say that the villain isn't good. The actor who is originally on screen and then voices his evil counterpart, Scott MacDonald, is enjoyable as the antagonist. MacDonald's voice is dark, gruff and can sound very sinister and it makes that much more enjoyable when it comes out of an evil snowman. Sad to say, this is the only redeeming character of the cast. Christopher Allport as the troubled sheriff takes second place, but after him is hard to tell. The rest of the characters are so flat in dimension that it will be difficult for the viewers to feel anything for them.The violence and gore would also be more appreciated if it wasn't so quickly edited. That's not to say it was bad, and I understand the budget was low, but some of the kills were off screen and only the aftermath was shown which will disappoint the gore hounds. Also, the continuity isn't great - sometimes even the sounds are not properly aligned with the movements of the characters. For shame. The music on the other hand was good. Chris Anderson and Carl Schurtz produced a well-rounded creepy Christmas score that at least helped make this horror slasher film feel a bit better than its other average production elements. It's an OK film, just don't expect any bit of brilliance.The slasher version of Michael Keaton's family friendly film is fun trash thanks to the actor playing the villain, some good violence and appropriate music. Everything else however could have been improved upon greatly.

nycrules And that she had any career whatsoever afterwards. lol. This pile of excrement is so awful I would give it a zero if I could. It looks like a group of 14 year old boys made this. If it was meant to be low budget to make it funny, it wasn't. It wasn't funny. It was just really bad. I'm sure Shannon Elizabeth wish she could forget this was ever on her resume. This should be shown in film schools as in the way not to make films. The snow man looked so ridiculously stupid as did the entire movie and too dumb to be funny either. I really am shocked anyone invested their money into the making of this stinker. The effects were so fake and ridiculous but so poorly done. It is deserving of a zero rating.
