3 out of 5 stars Like a Train Wreck   December 11, 2008
Ravyn Karasu
Okay, this movie was horrible, but...I couldn't stop watching!

That being said, it HAS to be seen at LEAST once. It's like...MST3000 worthy! Yet, it's still funny enough on it's own. It's considered a horror movie, but I spent more time laughing than anything.

This is one wacky movie.

4 out of 5 stars Cheesy Campy Fun   July 29, 2008
Jamison Ballard
Ok for those that think this is going to be a super scary slasher with a viscious looking snowman like the cover, think again.

It is story about a serial killer "Jack Frost" recently captured by the local sheriff, hand cuffed and on route for his execution. When suddenly a blizzard occurs and visibility becomes impossible and they collide with a genetics experiment truck. Soon the genetics truck explodes and the chemical inside melts Jack into the snow. Soon the abonimable killer is on the loose seeking his revenge on the sheriff that put him into this predictament and of course killing anyone in his path.

Sounds OK right? Well it is a very watchable movie. Especially for anyone that likes movies that you can't believe were ever made. More comical then scary. Jack is far from the appearance the cover depicts. What you get is a guy in a puffy white snowman outfit with large white oven mit hands. What adds to the hilarity is the way people battle the abonimable killer. Hair dryers, aerosol cans and lighters, heaters, etc. fill the movie with extra laughs. In fact take out the strange rape scene and this film in my book gets five stars.

Overall, a fun movie that is a must buy for anyone that likes the cheesy campy films of the 80s. Belongs next to Killer Klowns and Tomatoes on the shelf.



2 out of 5 stars Weak, even for B horror   February 23, 2008
Jay (USA)
I was very disapointed with Jack Frost. I rented it years ago when it was a new release in the video store and really enjoyed it. I even bought it but never popped it in until recently. This time around my opinion changed big time. I'm not sure what I was thinking when I originally thought it was so great. It really was awful. I am a big fan of B movies but this was just too goofy. I wasn't expecting much, but this didn't do anything for me. I think it's the best when a movie really tries to be serious but is too ridiculous to be anything but funny. But when a movie knows it's so bad they try to make it funny is a different story. As much as I'd love to love a movie about a killer snowman, I just can't. I'd pass on this if you have the chance.


2 out of 5 stars Jack Frost Starring Shannon Elizabeth. Who knew this would be the high point of her career?   December 9, 2007
Sid the Elf (North Pole)
We, Sid the Elf, have been very excited about kicking off the Christmas B season and decided to open up with Jack Frost. Many years ago Sid saw Jack Frost when it was a new release at his local video store and really enjoyed it's straight to VHS goodness. Unfortunately it did not stand the test of time like we expected. I'm not sure exactly what went wrong? Horror B used to be the tops. Now it is hard to even sit through a full viewing. I guess Sid has just matured and really needs some sweet explosions and neck snappings to get his bull running. After viewing timeless works of art like "Total Recall", "Predator," and "Out For Justice" Jack Frost just seems obsolete.

As much as we would like to, we just can't recommend Jack Frost. It seems as if this one started the trend of horror movies that know they are so bad they have to try to make them funny, which has single handedly ruined the genre.
