Péril de glace

I am not surprised that there are no goofs for this film as the whole film is a goof. There is no perceptible plot, the FX - rubber "trilobites" (were they carnivorous?) are laughable and the clichés - if you smoke you're first to go, if you have pre-marital sex you're next - are ridiculous. We know who will live and who will die within the first 20 mins and we don't give a monkey's as to who survives. Plan 9 from Outer Space seems like Ridley Scott compared with this heap of hokum. Avoid all films that have Deep at the beginning - Deep Impact, Deep Rising and Deep Freeze are all naff.

I only saw this movie because of Allen Lee Haff being in it, but I have to say that, even though it wasn't the best horror movie (can you call it a horror movie if it's not scary?) I've seen, it wasn't the worst. It certainly surpassed Rodentz! But anyway, the movie was okay, and I liked the different storyline. There were a few scenes that looked kinda fake, but a few that had some good effects to them. There was one scene though, the really ticked me off. In one scene, it shows the "creature" chasing after Allen and Rebekah's characters after it finished killing someone, and Allen has a gun, but he doesn't shoot the thing! He just runs away with the others, ending up in a situation with the creature, where he falls about 2 flights of stairs and wrestles with the creature, only to get a tiny scratch on his face and his shirt a little bit dirty. Come on. It was also amusing that Allen's character, who was supposed to be southern,-I think from Texas-kept losing his accent every now and then. Ha! The ending was rather stereotypical as well, but you gotta do something I guess. But sad to say, I kinda liked the movie, and not just because I got some Allen eye candy.

~K~

Really bad... Like a High School production. I have to leave a longer note, or it won't record my comment, but I really don't want to think about this movie any longer.

Early on, one of the regular crewmen of the drilling facility comments on how surprisingly young the recently-arrived workers are.

One replies that the worker isn't that young himself. As opposed to being "that old" himself which would make sense in the context of the previous sentence. Great coherency there.

Later, after disregarding the possibility of killer trilobites on the station, that same girl suggests some DNA sample was from "a pre- millipede or a trilobite or something". Perhaps there was no script, at least not a script containing actual dialogue, and the actors ad-libbed but couldn't hear each other clearly.

The lead man meanwhile has history in oil drilling. This trait is so poorly established it seems he's getting into the spirit of oil drilling (his work colleagues consist of older men)and nothing more.

Everything that happens gives the feel the story happens over a few days minimum, yet supposedly happened within hours. The main characters, newly arrived on a long flight, at no point even appear tired. Yeah, "Deep Freeze" shouldn't be watched by those who value coherency...

Not much gore either because when attacked, victims' lives apparently flash before their eyes although no new footage was shot meaning it consists of flashes of previous scenes.

The scariest part? Most horror films focusing on oil workers are actually worse!

For the love of God, people please do NOT see this movie!

I can honestly say that this is the worst movie I've seen to date (and I'm a big fan of B-Movie horror films!).

The storyline is basically non-existent and I found myself having to *force* myself to watch the film through to the end. The creature effects are very poor (until about the last 5-10 minutes, and even then they're worse than something from Buffy), and the death scenes are the worst I've ever seen (and let's face it, in this kind of movie, the death scenes are all you watch 'em for).

Overall, a BAD movie (and not in the "bad, but amusing cheesy" way). Stay well clear! And don't say you weren't warned....
