Jack Frost (1997)

This is for the horror movie one with the serial killer, NOT the cute and cuddly family version staring Michael Keaton.

The reason I decided to watch this is some friends and I were talking about it not to long ago and I thought I would give it a watch being that I never truly seen it before.
I would have to say the opening credits were pretty good the voice over guy tell a story very similar to how I tell a story which of course made me laugh being I think I tell pretty good stories.
One thing surprised me apparently this was Shannon Elizabeth's first movie acting role.
you might be wondering "Shannon Elizabeth? is that the one from.." yes, yes it is
the one from American Pie. she did pretty good but sadly came to a rather bad end
in the film in probably its most memorial scene.
Speaking of people coming to a bad end that is one of the things that made this film so funny. They try to get you with jokes and puns that are just more lame and groan worthy then they are funny, but that is really funny is the kills and how the snowman goes about it they are so over the top you just have to laugh at them.
now I can draw comparisons to other characters or films I heard people say it somewhat reminds them of child's play. Also for me personally I would say the character of Jack frost is more like the supervillain Sandman from Spider-Man comics
just look at them they are the same type of character its just one is made of sand and the other made of snow.
Now being that this movie was kind of stupid and had some very stupid scenes in it
one of which I thought was rather horrible was the one in the police station where
the sheriff is trying to get the keys, I don't understand why he didn't just quickly grab the over sized key ring and take off I guess that would be dramatic enough
but one thing was bugging me the whole time was how did Jack lets say "walk"
he didn't have any legs just the large ball on the bottom did he waddle? or was it more of a rolling effect where the lower larger ball rolled while the upper ones stayed still? he was clearing moving about in a "walking fashion" I was just wondering about how?
In the end this movie was alright its good for a laugh but nothing else.
