Review of Snowbeast (1977) by Christabel D — 17 Sep 2010

For a made for TV horror film, this one really wasn't that bad. The production value is certainly a cut above most that were made in the late 1970's. The camera work was well done, aided by the fact that the movie was shot pretty much completely on location. As is typical with TV movies, there is more of an attempt to develop the characters, and you do come to like them.

But, unfortunately, like most monster movies from that time, the monster itself was a little disappointing... and obviously a man in a fuzzy suit. the only other major flaw in this film is that you can still tell it was a made for TV movie.

If you can get past those two problems, you'll probably enjoy this movie... even if it's just to poke fun at the monster...
