After a serial killer gets doused with some toxic, mutating ooze, a small town must deal with the terrible wrath of his new deep-freeze form (to say nothing of his horrific carrot nose and eyes made out of hellish coal). Although clearly indebted to the superior horror-comedy of Sam Raimi (the venerable director of <I>The Evil Dead</I> trilogy), this killer snowman movie is somewhat less than abominable (sorry), with a cheerful, wonky sense of humor, some intentionally cheesy special effects, and a creative enthusiasm that belies the obviously low budget. Good fun for the less-discriminating horror fan, although potential viewers should be warned in advance that a blatantly misogynist scene in a female victim's bathtub crosses the line between enjoyably tasteless and downright disgusting. <I>--Andrew Wright</I>
Viewer Reviews
Ehh this movie is all right. The premise of a killer snowman is pretty amusing. I just wish the filmmakers would have went ahead and gone completely over the top with it in a DEAD ALIVE, RIKI-OH, EVIL DEAD II, CHINESE TORTURE CHAMBER STORY kind of way.
The campy irreverent humor is funny, I giggled more than a few times but unfortunately with no nudity and a severe lack of spilt blood this movie will never be anything more than a novelty. Worth watching once if only to try and locate the carrot in the bathtub scene.
