Frozen Kiss (2009)
4/10
Bad Trip
30 July 2016
In a small town in California, a young man called Keith (Vic Harris) commits suicide on the street in from of his former girlfriend Shelley (Cameron Goodman). She becomes outcast in the town and stays recluse at the house of her boyfriend Ryan (Jamie Martz) or giving support to her estranged crippled alcoholic mother Gayle (Mimi Rogers). Ryan lives with his drug addicted friend Wade (Zack Bennett) and is chased by his former girlfriend Jeanette (Leslie-Ann Huff), with whom he has a baby girl. During the end of December, Wade's friend Nathon (Sam Littlefield) invites Ryan and Shelley to a party at his house in a nearby town. Despite the blizzard, the couple drives to the party and uses crystal meth. Later they decide to return home through the bad weather. Along their journey'back home, Shelley, who has never used drugs before, has dreadful visions and Ryan has an accident with his truck when she takes the steering wheel from his hand. Lost in the blizzard, they contact the sheriff's office, but neither Sheriff Bruce (Chris Meyer) nor the tow-truck driver Larry (David Starzyk) are capable to find Ryan and Shelly that are experiencing a bad trip.

"Frozen Kiss" is a film with potential but wasted due to the poor development of the unlikable characters. The film begins and the viewer does not know who Keith is and why he kills himself. The flat Shelley seems to be a fatal or promiscuous woman since Keith, Bruce and Ryan are crazy about her. Gayle is a real bitch. The good point is the landscape with blizzard and snow, especially for viewers that live in tropical countries. The art of the DVD cover is also attractive but misguides the viewer regarding the genre with the comment "terror is as cold as ice" and stating that is based on a true event. In the end, "Frozen Kiss" is not the awfullest film ever made but could be better and better. My vote is four.

Title (Brazil): Not Available.
