Yeti: Curse of the Snow Demon (2008)
10 Stars For Being So Horribly Hilarious
B-movies are supposed to be bad, but it is only rarely that one discovers a gem of ridiculously bad, delightfully awful film making like Yeti. This is rated highly because, let's face it, who watches a movie like this if they don't LOVE horrible B-movies and expect and hope that it is awful?
The plot is a rip-off of "Alive", with an airplane full of college football students crash-landing in the snowy mountains and having to struggle for survival (and decide whether to eat the bodies of their less-fortunate buddies who died in the crash.) However, unlike in "Alive", this movie of course has a horrible man-eating yeti who tries to kill, maim, eat, de-limb, and in general harm any human it encounters, just because.
The characters are supremely stupid for college students; they're grossed out about eating rabbit for survival (or chicken, as the thing they're roasting obviously is...), don't know a big cave with a blood trail means a predator lives inside, want to eat corpses after only two days of surviving when they still have chocolate bars left to eat instead, and search for matches for hours instead of lighting a fire from the numerous pieces of burning wreckage ON-CAMERA while they're discussing how they're going to freeze to death.
For gamer web series fans, my best comparison of the Yeti's looks is to that of a Moblin from the web parody series "The Legend of Neil". (Only whiter and much more hairy.) I laughed through the whole thing, and heartily recommend it to any fellow fan of awfully funny B-movies.
