The greatest directors are more than artists; they're also wildly creative free thinkers who push our understanding of the possibilities of art to change our perceptions of ourselves. Snow Beast comes along at just the right moment to help us come to grips with gender politics in a winter environment. Is this the greatest film of all time? Let the public be the judge of that. Without a doubt its 1:28 runtime will leave you staring at the screen at the end making you think, really think about the way we perceive snowmen and the rapidly changing world of LGBT politics. Snow pole? Snow hole? You can't change the weather so you'd better change your consciousness. This lesser known Orson Welles classic is probably the greatest snowman movie in the history of cinema. Like its predecessor Citizen Kane, we begin at the end where the Snow Beast is watching his grandchildren play in his garden as he reflects on his life of randomly killing humans just for fun, because he never really acquired a taste for the creatures, and they gave him diarrhea. Welles plays the part of the Beast perfectly and surpasses every other performance in his film repertoire. As a director he breaks all of the rules of Hollywood.I only pray that Hollywood will heap praise upon the special effects in this classic like the good people of Bromide, Oklahoma, where the snowman outfit won third place in the Halloween costume competition at Dell's Tavern.I think that's probably enough, possibly too much.

Oh now this here was just a terrible excuse for a horror movie! It was boring, and a lot of the acting so stiff and forced that I frequently found it downright awkward to watch mostly. I didn't find it enjoyable in any way really, not the drama, the dramatic side of the film was awful. There wasn't even any nice gory kills to ease things along. Not that I watch horror movies for that, but in certain cases such as this, it's a plus. No laughs, I wouldn't call this a movie that was so bad it was good. Even that other stinky yeti movie, "Curse of the Snow Demon", the one where the monster hops around like a flea was better than this! It doesn't even feel like a proper horror movie, it feels more like a very bad TV drama with tinges of horror and sci-fi, all the way through to the lame done-to-death "gotcha" bit at the ending. Should this film actually be called a remake of 1977's Snowbeast? Why would anyone want to do that anyway, it's not exactly a shining classic. Despite the vaguely similar plots, the films are vastly different. Example, Snowbeast(one word)actually had a kind of plot, whereas this thing doesn't seem to, and this picture doesn't have any of the, admittedly meagre magic of the Bo Svenson "classic." Mouldy old Snowbeast from the distant 70's, a film not at all that good in itself, still manages to do so much more for me than this thoroughly forgettable tripe. I didn't rate it zero/one because uh, I liked the snow. We don't get it in England any more and I always find such winter wonderland surroundings pleasant to look at in a movie. And of course, who could ever forget cuddly 'ol Mr yeti, such a badly put together creation that he was merely amusing rather than scary. More about him in a minute.::: I thought John Sneider's performance was the best , though the best in this isn't saying much. He held many an awkward situation together by the skin of his acting teeth. Good actor, bad movie. His daughter was so annoying! Her sullen, teenage girl mad at her father for mother leaving act was such a worn out old bad cliché. And Jason London-what a stupid little weeny part he had! What was the point of him even being in the movie? He didn't do anything, just hung out with, and exchanged insults with a fat viking guy. And he looks tremendously stupid and corny when he screamed as the yeti gets him. In any case, I bet this is a role the guy will happily forget. I'm not a fan. He's so boring.::: Someone wrote something about the monster looking like one of the Mangalore's from Fifth Element.(a good one) I had thought that too, and the Wampa monster from The Empire Strikes Back mixed together. I thought the face was impressive. Too bad the rest of the thing committed the grave sin of simply looking like a guy in a suit. Not that I'd normally mind that at all, but this was a very poor example of a suit. The design of the creature in the 'original' was far more effective and impressive-looking, I'll put it that way. I thought the yeti looked so cute in the scene where John Sneider takes out the rubbish and hears a growl and looks into the forest and sees nothing. And when he goes back in, the camera pans to the spot he was looking at and the yeti slowly peeps his head up-oh, looks so cute I just can't stand it! The thing sure liked to slap people around a lot. It's pimp-slapping and snatch and grab skills were second to none! The monster in this movie may have been pretty pathetic, but there is a short story that I know of that is far greater than any movie of this kind, it's called Creature of the Snows, by William Sambrot. Try and find it, 'cause if you're intrigued by yeti monster, I promise you'll love it.::: I watched this expecting to at least enjoy it, because I usually do with yeti/Bigfoot monster movies, of which there aren't that many, and this ain't one of the good ones, I would not recommend it. If you think things are looking bad when you see the prologue, well then you ain't seen nothing yeti!

Quite some runtime has focus on the daughter and father, on their dysfunctional relationship. Will they fix their relationship? Well guess - you won't get it wrong. A yeti runs amok, killing senselessly, most likely because the characters aside from our main four blatantly don't matter, and don't contribute much aside from... actually, with most kills occurring offscreen the "body count" characters don't really add anything and receive little screen time. An unambitious creature feature, "Snow Beast" has nothing for anyone with experience watching creature features.

Wow was this ever bad. From terrible acting to the recycled beast face from The Fifth Element (a GOOD movie) stuck onto a shag carpet man-suit to the insanely moronic behaviour of the characters that I can only assume had to do the things they did because they were in the script as nobody could even imagine being that stupid.Stupidity in no particular order.... snowmobile gets trashed by some 'big hairy thing' but we'll check it in the morning, not leave... record film of giant hairy beast CLEARLY from multiple angles via remote cameras but no one can tell what it is 'it's a thing'... have run in with beast and get away back to cottage but we'll leave in the morning even though we're scared senseless... one person awakes really early before they take off so they can go look for Beast, leaves tranq gun in car because, well, why not?... bring bait to distract Beast but instead of a bag, drag it on a garbage can lid on a rope for miles... and on and on.At one point in the movie, you can see the opening the 'actor' uses to get into the suit... they didn't even try to hide it, just let it look like a really bad stripe down is carpeted back.Avoid like it as if it WERE a Beast trying to hunt you down!! unless you're going to make it a drinking game where you have one every time someone does something stupid or the daughter pouts... you should be plastered by the end.
