Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Kayden This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

videorama-759-859391 I'm surprised I didn't see the names Joseph Mehri and Richard Pepin associated with this one, as it seemed very, City Lights, handled. What's more, a horror in itself, is some of the stars who have turned up in this, like little Wednesday Addams, who's grown up into a real bombshell and Elizabeth Gorcey from Grandview U.S.A. Iced is a mess in a lot of ways. It hardly has any suspense, that gives way to a so awful predictability, where after our time in waiting, the victims are killed off quickly. The little shocker, for the sake of shocker end scene is cute, but stupid, which it could be imaginary, which is just another messy attribute. Essentially, it's a revenge story, where a score of friends are invited to this flash ski resort. They are cliché's of other characters in this sort of caper, like a responsible woman party and of course, the lone jerk dickhead, prankster, etc. One by one, they killed in gruesome ways, one party, not even making it to the cabin. The killer in the snow plough, just happening to be there, leaves a lot to be explained, as other things do in the movie too. Also, like one of the woman banging on the door, and not being heard inside by her friends, before she's struck in the neck by an icicle (wedge of ice). High points of the movie are of course, Wednesday Adams, the music score, Carl, and the killer identity revealed. Take that all away, apart from the decent acting, this is a slip shod film, where gore hound's patience may'be a little stretched, before the bloodletting ensues. The weak titled movie could of been much more better if more time and care went into it, where instead, we just fall to the weak, typical B, grade fare, where in this case, it's kind of disappointing.

Bloodwank There's something tremendously appealing to me about snowbound horror. Great white isolation, nature itself a menace in cold immensity, and of course the beauty of red blood on fleece white snow. Iced regrettably does next to nothing with its potential, but for the bad slasher aficionado it has its merits all the same. Its set up is promising, first shot a freeze frame of skier atop a mountain, stark image, arms outstretched, poles like chill antennae against the sky. Then we have a race, defeat, romantic rejection and rage. One poorly planned night skiing excursion later and there's the back story. Then its a case of various related parties heading up to the mountains to snag a free holiday out of a condo timeshare pitch, then accosted by a ski masked maniac. Its more or less an absolute textbook example of a bad slasher, nudity, very little gore (just a couple of workable gore shots here) and delicious slices of cheese. It works on vivid characters and amusing dialogue, managing a fair level of general amusement despite having little to offer for the most part. There's John, a doctor with an off key attitude and lovely heroine Trina. There's Carl, twitchy and sarcastic cokehead (scarfs up an impressive load of the stuff at one point) who serves up a fun dream sequence and wired paranoia. Best of all is Jeanette, essayed in lively fashion by Lisa Loring, giving her all for the piece like it counts for something, nicely sexual stuff (that's a carrot in your mouth, not a dick! !). Dialogue is for the most part pleasing, especially in a spell of bad date reminiscence (drive in tissue boob fiasco!) and the actors have good chemistry, there's a nice sense of disparate friends uniting and trying to make a holiday work. Things are regrettably a good deal too slow though, most of the deaths are crammed into the final block and the few sex scenes and occasional boobs don't quite hold the weight of maintaining interest, moreover the direction is generally style free (though director Jeff Kwitny did later make a rocking trashfest by the name of Death Train) and the plotting lacks suspense. Things do perk up fairly nicely in the final twenty minutes or so, with tension, fair kills and the odd giggle from continuity errors, culminating in one of the gnarliest lunatic freeze frame closers I've ever seen. Oh, and the music packs some nice daftoid tunage if memory serves. Little here to recommend to anyone that isn't already a devotee of crappy slashers, but to those that are this one is just about worth tapping for a one time watch.

HumanoidOfFlesh "Iced" is a low-budget and heavy on drama slasher flick about six young vacationers who check into a posh ski resort where they are systematically dispatched by the killer hidden behind the ski mask.It's apparently a retribution for the suicidal death of one of their friends years before."Iced" is a pretty damn bad.Almost nothing happens during the first hour of the film.The multiple conversations shared mostly by the women are dull,unconvincing and add nothing to the story.At least Lisa Loring of "Blood Frenzy" fame gets naked a lot.Fortunately the last half of the film features some creative death scenes via ski-pole and icicle.Still "Iced" is too boring and goreless to satisfy fans of early 80's slasher movies.4 out of 10.One to avoid.

Maciste_Brother ICED is one of the most moronic slashers ever conceived. A guy in a ski suit and broken ski goggles kills people at a log cabin. Very scary...not. The whole thing is completely forgettable. And the killings don't start until the last part of the film. The characters and situations are not interesting enough to sustain one's interest all the way to when the action starts and when the killings do start, no one cares about anything or anyone. And there's a really stupid "surprise" ending. No wonder horror movies died in the 1980s.A total waste of time.
