How is it possible to make a film so bad as this. Everything about it is terrible, in particular the script, the erm 'acting', the erm 'special effects'. I see no reason why the film master is not incinerated so nobody ever has to endure to watch this film. I can only imagine the budget to make the movie was £10,000 but then that was slashed to just £5000.

Why dont directors and producers of bad movies care about anything? People are in deep snow, blistering cold wind and frigid air. 2 teens climb out of snow they were buried in. They are on a mountain top forever with swirling cold air and their faces looked pure white the whole time. Not the slightest shade of red from frigid winds. They both looked opaque and almost albino. Ice cold wind would cause a red nose and cheeks and no breath to be seen. You can cgi Cold breath, Last man standing did it. They couldnt care less about having the makeup person put on a little rouge makeup for believability? No body in the entire movie had anything but a white face even in 50 mph frigid wind. They found one person buried in snow...you guessed it....white cheeks. Pitiful. God awful movie

Plot's bad, characters are bad, but I'd be lying if the bad acting, script writing and "special" effects didn't have me in stitches. There's a scene where some guy trips over a dead man's hand, and the hand shutters and wobbles because it's a rubber hand. It was hilarious. Still a terrible film though, the only reason I rated it a 4 stars was because of the tear-filled laughter I got out of it.

Everybody kept saying they was freezing but didn't bother to pull their hood over their heads. The girl constant screaming was very so annoying. The flash freeze froze some people to ice and skipped the rest as if they wasn't there, just get up and walk away. Wasn't much thought written into this movie.

This movie was entertaining to watch if you can overlook a poorly written script with a ridiculous plot especially the ending along with special effects that were mostly badly done. However the actors did a good job considering what they had to work with and the cinematography was good with spectacular scenery despite some mistakes.

Christmas Icetastrophe is your usual nonsense disaster movie that played on the SyFy Channel. The story is no different to at least half a dozen others that have already been made and shown on that channel, and it merely consists of characters running away from a fast-moving mess of cold air which freezes anything it touches. A meteorite caused the disaster this time around, somewhat unbelievably. The cast is made up of clichéd characters, the script is monotonous, and the references to A Christmas Carol are completely pointless. Add in your usual round of awful CGI effects and you have all the ingredients. It really is an unrewarding film.

Okay, so I'll say this...the movie was nice but I could have done without all of the lead girl's screaming. She was a little annoying and I did not like her brother at all so I was glad when he was out of the picture. Other than that, I'd say that it's worth the watch. Side note: Her love interest, the young guy with the dark hair reminds me a lot of Edward (Robert P.) from the Twilight series. He's kinda sexy!!!

The *only* good thing about this movie was the science lab scene with a rather holiday-enthused astronomer played by the brilliant Jonathon Young. Otherwise, this was the type of movie you only finish because you've already wasted so much time on it you have to keep watching to see JUST HOW BAD IT WILL GET... The story was ridiculous, the other actors were terrible and the special effects were worse than pathetic. I love a good sci-fi movie, but this was just a cheesy thriller with a crappy plot and nothing remotely convincing.
