Let It Snow

This movie didn't really piss me off, but giving it a three is probably impossible. What pleases are definitely the exteriors (horror movies in the snow are just cool) and the effort of the screenwriters. It's not completely disposable, but I have no idea where to categorize it genre-wise at all. It's not a proper survival, nor a slasher, nor a torture film. It just nibbles at different possibilities and tries to confuse the viewer. However, the attempt at a pointed ending didn't really strike a chord with me, so it won't be very memorable either.

A chilling survival drama from Georgia! An American couple go snowboarding in the Caucasus, where a masked killer on a snowmobile is on the rampage. It's very nicely shot, the scenery is captured in detail – mountain and snow lovers will enjoy it – but it's a bit creaky on the horror or thriller side. There are no murders or gore, and most of the time the main character walks, screams or runs while freezing, and only occasionally do we get a sneaky peeks at the killer out to do some mischief. Fortunately, the film has a few thrilling scenes, it doesn't get downright boring and as a Survival one-off it holds up, but those who are experienced in this genre won't find anything new in Let it Snow.
