Frozen (I) (2010)

Terrible Movie

[1/10 · 29 January 2022]

This movie was terrible from start to finish. Aside from the obvious problems with the setting, the acting was terrible. The writing was terrible. The research into facts about the location was terrible.

From sexist dialog and scenario to start the film to impossible encounters in location this movie has a lot.

Girl is inept and can't ski. The only thing she can do is, at her boyfriend's insistence, use her sex appeal to score a discounted ski run for the trio. That's the sexism out of the way.

Now for the location issue. New England has no wolves. New England has no ski resorts at or above 5,000 ft in elevation.

Wolves don't bark.

Intruder (III) (2016)

Intruder in woman's home for days.

[8/10 · 23 April 2017]

I enjoyed this movie. Was it clichéd? At times yes. What isn't these days? Was the music score over-the-top? Yes. However, it was a breath of fresh air to experience a horror movie that featured no blood. In a time when most horror movies amount to nothing but gore fests, exploitation, and stereotypes, this one featured a female lead who actually spoke using a grown up woman's speech pattern. That is in short supply these days. At least in American movies. I noticed a slight brogue so perhaps that explains it. The important part of this is that the movie freaked me out and kept me in suspense the whole time. It accomplished this with very little depictions of actual violence. Could it have been better? Yes. But it was worth watching. I would watch it again.
