I was tempted to abort this movie but plowed ahead just to see how these OK actors were dealing with a mostly nonsensical script. Best example: Lead scientist Jim (Schneider) tells everyone 'I'll take the snow mobile to the ranger station to get help'(the trip would be hugely dangerous). As he leaves he turns and says, 'meanwhile call the ranger station and tell them I'm coming.' I'm scratching my head... why go when you can call and ask for the rangers to send help?See Beastley's review...spot on! The group stares at great video, from their remote cameras, clearly showing a yetti or Abominable Snowman prancing around. Clear as day. It takes five minutes of like, what can that be? A bear standing up? Yada yada.... till Rob finally says...looks like a Yetti to which Jim says.... naw they're in the Himalayas. As if this scientist is clueless of hundreds of sightings in North America. Emmy goes out alone to photograph the beast, knowing it has killed people, taking a tranquilizer gun and promptly leaves the gun on her car seat.Father and daughter doing high fives minutes after major tragedy has occurred. No explanation of why their beastly videos did not survive. Next, a hugely tall powerful beast that is too weak to break down a door. Rob stares at a huge pool of blood and does not mention it to Jim who is several feet away. Two men go out to find Emmy and take no weapons of any kind.I have rarely seen such a defective script. It left me rooting for the beast.

I recently watched this film on the TV the other day. This, without a doubt has got to be the worst film I have ever seen. It must have had a budget of $5,000 and edited with Windows Movie Maker that's how poor it was. The 'yeti' costume was extremely poor and you could easily tell that it was just a guy in the suit wearing a cheap Halloween mask which seemed to shake whenever the 'yeti' roared. Not to sure who gave them the funding for this, but wow... 1/10 film for me. The worst film I have seen in my life and I have seen some bad films. I just hope for the love of god that they do not make another edition of this as it will be extremely cringe worthy and painful to watch. So, so bad!

This movie is AWESOME!!! It is the film by which I will judge all future low-budget movies on the SciFi channel or Lifetime Network. John Schneider excels in his role as a walking corpse. And the Snow Beast itself is just plain ORNERY!! The acting is unique. The story line is unique. I especially enjoyed the complete disregard for the discovery of a body. The lack of interest by the police in an animal that vandalizes snowmobiles was also a new twist that I particularly enjoyed. And it was profoundly disturbing that the field biologists (the central characters) mistook the Snow Beast for "a bear - but I'm not sure which species". These were very bad biologists indeed. And frankly the Snow Beast wasn't much of a snow beast if it couldn't even catch up to field biologists running through snow drifts. in summary, this movie is NOT TO BE MISSED.

People disappear every year out in the Canadian wilderness -- however, this year is different. This year something is increasing the body count...Jason London is the reason I wanted to watch this film. And sadly, he was probably the best actor in the movie. (And without the weird personal baggage of his brother Jeremy... though I prefer Jeremy.) Too bad his role is so small.The father is bit melodramatic and has an acting style that would probably work better on the ABC Family channel than in a cheesy horror film.I have to give credit to the special effects, because there really are not any. And that makes me happy, because I would rather see a cheesy suit than a cheesy computer effect. And, even better, the suit is on screen a minimum amount of time.
