Jack Frost

unfortunately this wasn't the worst movie I've ever seen (Troll 2 was), but it's still pretty bad. But this one is so bad, its funny which make this movie great.

Anyway, a snowman turned into water and goes under doors is so lame, and you will laugh along with the bad storyline and the awful acting, which make Jack Frost a must see piece of crap.

Surprisingly good. The acting was fun, the screenplay was fun, the music was cheesie fun, the plot was stupendously fun. This was a fun movie to watch and to give your brain some rest. Parts of the plot and quotes I found to be very creative. 7 out of 10. Actually for what it was, it would deserve a 10 out of 10. You are not supposed to compare this to an arthouse film or to a bloody slasher film.

Some folks don't get it. This is _supposed_ to be a parody, albeit one made on a low budget. The producers don't take themselves too seriously, and the end result is something a lot funnier than the over-blown Michael Keaton '98 version. Every aspect of a killer snowman is explored as the antagonist shoots icicles, decapitates a kid with a sled, has sex with a woman using his carrot nose, kills a victim by turning her into a Xmas tree, and displaying the same indestructible aspects as a Terminator. Other amusing moments to watch for are: the opening narration (done by a Malcolm McDowell wanna-be), the horny teenagers breaking _into_ the sheriff's house to have sex (??) and the cast's refusal to speak any obscenity: lots of "Hecks" and "Darns" are inserted at the most inappropriate times. This is a great movie to kill 1-1/2 hours with if you can pick up the tape at bargain rates or catch it on cable.

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

Well what can I say, there are B-Grade Movies and there are B-Grade Movies and this definitely falls into the latter. However since it's obvious that even the makers of the film know that it's not a credible movie (take a look at the closing credits) it can be forgiven.

The plot is basically a convicted psycho killer is killed. He accidentally has his genetic material mixed up with some experimental acid that get combined and then lost in the snow. The killer now takes on the form of a snowman - if you can believe that. The snowman, Jack Frost, is after the country town Sherif who put him behind bars. In doing so, Jack Frost ends up killing half the town.

This movie lacks any real scares and the effects alone remind me of the B-Grade movies of the 50's. This alone makes it worth watching for a laugh. A movie to pass the time away.
