Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!

AboveDeepBuggy Some things I liked some I did not.

Organnall Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,

Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

OllieSuave-007 This is a made-for-TV thriller starring Knight Rider star David Hasselhoff as madman Duncan Snyder, who crashes into the Rockies, produces an avalanche and gets the Kemp Family trapped inside their house with him.It is notable seeing the Knight Rider hero playing a nefarious villain, terrorizing a quiet family and forcing them to help him find jewels in the mountains. It is pretty exciting to see how the Kemp Family attempt to get themselves out of Snyder's trap.The acting was so-so, pretty campy at times. But, the plot is fast-paced and full of suspense - from the avalanche to the fight for survival. All in all, not a bad TV thriller.Grade B-

sol **SPOILERS** Mind numbing thriller in the wilds of the Alaskan wilderness has Brian Kemp, Michael Gross, and his son and daughter Max & Dee, Myles Ferguson & Deanna Milligan, trapped in their cabin under 30 feet of snow. The three end up being terrorized by this maniac Duncon Snyder, David Hassilhoff, who's off-the-wall actions were responsible for the mess that they all, including Duncon, where in by being trapped and in danger of freezing to death under a mountain of snow.Only worth watching for Hasselhoff's incredible performance that has to go down in motion picture history as one of the most outrageous portrayal of an obsessed and out of control lunatic ever put on film.Taking off from Russia with a load of cut diamonds worth millions Duncon after gunning down the Russian Major, George Joseph, who tried to double-cross him, which was understandable, later shoots his partner Whitney (Dons Davis), while in the air over mountainous Alaska. Whitney who saved Duncon's neck by risking his life flying him out of Russia and preventing Duncon from facing a Russian firing squad or a lifetime stay in sunny and beautiful Siberia got just what he deserved by trusting a lunatic like him.Duncons brainless action in gunning down his partner and then having the plane crash into a snow-covered Alaskan mountain range cause an avalanche that almost cost him his life and lead to Duncon being rescued by the Kemp's, Brian Max & Dee, whom he dropped into their snow-covered cabin frozen stiff and almost dead. Brought back to life by the kind-hearted and caring Kemps Duncon instead of being grateful in them saving his good for nothing life instead tries to manipulate them into digging the wrong way out of the snow covered cabin, down instead of up, in order to find his stash of stolen diamonds, that he hid in a camera. Eager to get his hands on the hot ice, diamonds, Duncon plans to murder the Kemps and take off after he finds them. It takes a while for Brian to realize what a dangerous psycho this Duncon really is as he started to notice one or more looses crews, in Duncon's head, out of whack but by then it was almost too late for him as well as Max & Dee to stop the wild and crazy guy.Avalanche is one of those movie that you just can't turn off, no matter how bad and ridicules it is, with David Hesselhoff not knowing just what he's supposed to be or do in it. At one point in the movie I thought that Hesselhoff had so much trouble keeping a straight face acting, either like a deranged psycho or a mentally challenged Forrest Gump-type, that he must have been hypnotized like the claustrophobic Bela Lugosi was, in his being locked in a closet episode in "Black Friday", so that he wouldn't crack up and thus blow the entire scene!I have to say that in this movie I was in a way rooting for the bad guy, Duncon Syndner. Duncon who besides being completely out of his bird took about the worst beating I've ever seen anyone take, and still survive, in a movie and that includes the indestructible Jason in all of the more then half dozen Friday the 13th movies that he was in. I know millions of bad movie lovers, like myself, hope and pray that Duncon or David Hassehpff would somehow come back, from the frozen dead, in a sequel to entertain us for just one more time!

danielsan128 I had the misfortune of seeing this crapulous effort on television a few years ago. Suffice it to say Michael Gross phones in his performance, and Hasselhoff is the least convincing thief/psycho...EVER! If you have a couple of hours to kill, watch it and prepare to laugh.
