Ray Pelletier just wants to spend a pleasant and relaxing weekend ice fishing with his family. Alas, Ray's plans are ruined by the unwanted presence of the obnoxious big city father and son duo of Steve Cote and Stevie Jr. However, the two squabbling families are forced to set aside their differences and work together after a vicious monster awakens from the cold waters of the remote frozen lake area they are staying at.

Unfortunately, it's a bad movie. The ending is bullshit.

Why did you guys spoil yourselves? Horror Fan No-No 101. (chew)

Anywho;


Pretty good opening credits. Yay for Michael Rooker being in this. It was odd seeing him star as a 'nice, good father' after seeing him be so gnarly and mean in The Walking Dead Season One and Slither lol. Larry Fessenden produced this which wasn't a surprise since this reminded me of (a not as good/frightening version) of The Last Winter.
The son, David, was really hot. I loved Gina and Helen. The Cotes were entertaining and likeable (in small doses) but I hate spending more than just a few minutes at a time with people like them in real life. It bothered me that

I like that Helen acted so fast with the venom draining. A couple of the kills were pretty unexpected, quick, and vicious, brought down only by the fact that the monster itself looked like SHIT. Seriously, it is one of the WORST movie-monsters I've seen in recent years. Abominable.

Still, I appreciate the fact that it kept it simple, fast, short, uncomplicated, and to the point. '6 people vs 1 monster' is about as complex as it gets here (and there's not a thing wrong with that).
If not for the fact that you guys spoiled yourselves randomly, I'd recommend it. Just be warned that the monster IS as godawful as people say it was and its *almost* enough to take one out of the ending.

5-6/10 quality. 7/10 entertainment.

There's not a lot to like about this one. One of the biggest faults here is the fact that there's just no screen-time for the main beast to be seen, as the majority of the film focuses on the not-so-interesting dynamic between his family that are used to roughing it without much in the use of outside equipment with the newer family having the state-of- the-art tools that soon grows into them believing that makes the newer family easily adaptable to survive the creature's attacks while his family comes to believe they should all leave once things start escalating in danger. While that's pretty chilling on paper, in execution it doesn't come off at all and really only serve to drag out an already quick film without doing anything with it. That said, the creature isn't much better, given one of the most basic, simplistic and barely disguised costumes around that doesn't even try to cover up it's a wetsuit with a fanged head, fins and webbed feet attached which really does look better than CGI since it interacts with the cast from time-to- time but beyond that it doesn't offer much. The film does do some right, as there's pretty chilling moments as this accurately gets the feeling of isolation amongst the cold and freezing temperatures right, several of the encounters with the creature is handled nicely including a night- time scene illuminated only by generator flood-lights and a harrowing chase over the ice as it races after the escaping group to get away from it before the cracking ice gives way and plunges them in. All in all, though, there wasn't much else to this one.

Do illiterate people get the full effect of alphabet soup?

Some people are like slinkies: not good for anything, but you can't help but laugh when one falls down the stairs.

This sound like something I would like

, This movie could have really good as it had a decent plot The movie was not that long , it was only about 72 min long , which is kinda of short for a horror movie.

I liked that we get know some stuff about people and we care for them and I liked the fact we get to see there the under ice 1st I think this movie was bit bloodily not gory and I think the acting was really good.

The only major think wrong in this movie was silly creature , i it was so bad it was actually funny

I am going to give this movie 4 out of 10
