2/10
It'll be a cold day in Hell when I give this a good review. Get it...?

Skiing. Yetis. Obviously this is a video game movie of SkiFree. And like most video game movies, it sucks. I also got this in a Mill Creek "Chiller" pack.

Some have described it as "Jaws with snow," which isn't far off. First person Yeti-cam, main character wants to close down the park after a gruesome death. Higher authority says no in the name of profit, and wont cave after more deaths until they see it first hand. i can see the resemblance. Just replace "it wasn't a shark, it was a boat rudder" with "it wasn't a yeti, it was an avalanche." It's low-budget, made for TV B-Grade horror. And although I tend to enjoy a good laugh at a goofy B-Film, this wasn't even all that laughable. I can see why this was included in a $5 set of 20 Films no one had the rights to. Because no one would want the rights to this.

Much like the mutilated body of a Yeti victim, there's not much to salvage here.
