Snow Valley

When I stumbled upon this 2024 movie, and seeing Barbara Crampton on the cover, I immediately had to sit down and watch the movie. With it being a horror movie that I had not already seen nor actually heard about, and having the legendary horror icon Barbara Crampton on the cast list definitely had its appeal.

However, writer and director Brandon Murphy delivered a script and storyline that fell short of entertaining me by a mile. This movie was not entertaining at all. The script was incredibly bland and generic, and without anything interesting happening, it was an insanely boring viewing experience to suffer through. Suffice it to say that I didn't stick around for the entire 75 minutes that the movie ran for, because it was simply too boring.

Of the entire cast ensemble, I was actually only familiar with actress Barbara Crampton. It should be noted, though, that the acting performances in the movie were good. The Ed character, which was actually portrayed nicely by actor Tom Williamson, was one of the most annoying and loathsome characters I have seen in a movie for a long, long time.

For a horror/thriller movie then "Snow Valley" was ineffective and not a great pick if you want to sit down and be scared unto the edge of the seat.

This is not a movie that I will return to and attempt finish watching. I just simply didn't care one bit about the mundane storyline, nor for the one-dimensional characters. And not even having Barbara Crampton on the cast list was working in favor of the movie here.

My rating of "Snow Valley" lands on a two out of ten stars.

This movie was created by armatures I suppose because the directing acting and camera handling is less than poor. It is not a professional movie.. and the story is just nothing I think someone has written the story to time pass and those who watch this movie will do the same I think. Nothing good in this title.. and I almost spent my time and money for this ivain. They should pay me back my expenses and give me a salary for watching it.

If you are interested horror and thriller , find something which has more than 6 ratings and do not fall for this I repeat once again do not fall for this

this is a real messed up and garbage I hope you will find out soon enough if you have watched which I strongly suggest not to.

I didn't expect much from this movie going in and walked away with something that is for sure going in my Comedy Horror keepers.

It's short little haunted house jaunt that is less about the mystery of the house and more about discovering what the lead male protagonist is really up to.

The camera work and direction are really nice and kept the movie light and breezy. Tight shots kept everything in focus. The director prioritized characters over plot and it does pay off. Everyone played traditional stereotype horror characters and leaned into the cheesiness of the archetypes without going too ham. However, one character takes the cake.

One of those characters really hams it up so professionally I am going to need to see that character in more movies. Not sure who that actor is but he's definately on my radar. When he shows up you'll thank this review for giving you exposure to them.

The setup puts a lot of questions in the air and does a decent job of answering them by the end. Nice entertainment if you're looking for something in the background. The plot isn't tight, but it still comes together.
