A Disappointing Continuation
StyleSk8r
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

While the original Jack Frost was terrible, yet fun to watch, Jack Frost 2: Revenge of the Mutant, Killer Snowman, is just terrible. The main characters surviving from the first encounter with the murderous Jack are back here, as is Scott MacDonald as Jack himself. However, whatever it was that made the first film fun is sorely missing here. The effects are terrible, the dialogue is terrible, the acting is terrible, and I could go on and on. I think the original film found the perfect balance of serious and humorous moments. It balanced telling a (completely illogical) story with just the right dose of not taking itself seriously. This movie just threw story out the window and put all its eggs in the "not take itself seriously" basket. The filmmakers shouldn't be faulted for this, as a movie about a killer snowman should never take itself seriously. However, without some kind of effort put forth to make you care about the characters, then even cheese like this can turn your stomach. While the original will always be a crappy horror classic, this sequel comes off as an attempt at milking money out of an idea. I don't recommend this movie.

JACK FROST 2: REVENGE OF THE MUTANT KILLER SNOWMAN is one of those sequels that nobody asked for and nobody in their right mind would ever want to see. The first film was a Z-grade B-movie made without wit or charm; a dumb, would-be comic horror about the soul of a serial killer trapped inside a snowman.This sequel sees the bad guy return and inexplicably transport himself to a random Caribbean island, where the locals must batten down the hatches and fight against their supernatural foe. There's little plot development in this one, just more of the same, i.e. terrible acting, goofy one-liners, and the addition of some killer snowball offspring. There's a little gore here and there, a lot of cheesy effects (both CGI and practical), and zero reasons to take it seriously or, indeed, watch it at all in the first place.

In this sequel of the first Jack Frost movie, Sheriff Sam Tiler, his wife Anne, and Sam's two deputies (also husband and wife) decide to go on a Caribbean vacation to take their minds off the traumatic events of the previous movie in a place with absolutely no snow. Their holiday will be short-lived, however, as the thawed murderer gets inadvertently re-frozen and brought back to life. As if that weren't bad enough, he now has the ability to remain frozen even in tropical temperatures, and he's headed south to settle some old scores.How's THAT for a plot?How's cheap for the special effects? Cheaper than you can imagine. No real story Pretty much unwatchable.

Yes, in this movie you are treated to multiple little snowmen on the attack in apparently a very warm climate so yes this movie is definitely not to be taken seriously. It is in fact a much worse movie than the original as at least with that one the whole production looked like it cost more than a couple of bucks and a video camera to make. It has its funny moments, but really playing off the cheapness of your movie and making that be your intended laughs is kind of weak film making if you ask me. You can not come up with a good story, your effects are going to really be bad, hey let us just make the movie look as bad as possible with horrible one liners and we have our movie. The first one at least had a somewhat credible story as the snowman in that one attacked during the winter and not what amounts to a resort. It also had better effects too, this one is just a step or two ahead of "Hobgoblins" as far as the monsters are concerned and you really want to be more than a step a two above a bunch of hand puppets. Still, it makes up for all of this with a super ending that depicts a great sea vessel being taken out by the mighty frost. Actually, I am just kidding, but really it was the funniest part of the movie.
