George A I enjoyed this movie, except for errors. They obviously made up things, without any research. He runs out in the cold, risking his life, to get her insulin, when she clearly needed sugar. He gives her insulin, by the looks of it, enough to kill her, and she recovers. Her sugar was 5, which is bordering on low. Insulin will lower it more. Give the poor girl sugar, before she goes into a coma. This made me upset, because I am a diabetic.

Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member I found that Arctic Blast was good. I do agree that the Special fx wasn't all the best and that the only good acting was from Michael Shanks and Bruce Davison. The plot was pretty good, I definitely think that it worked. Michael Shanks did really well in my opinion, but their was definitely some faults in the casting. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member As far as low budget, B-grade disaster flicks go this was about what you'd expect. I've seen way worse Sy Fy movies for sure. Decent enough premise (basically borrowed from The Day After Tomorrow) and an enjoyable lead in Michael Shanks who even gets a bit of a back story revolving around his teenage daughter and impending divorce. The story jumps around (a lot) between Philadelphia (actually Ottawa) and Hobart Australia (really Hobart) following a renowned physicist trying to figure out how to stop a sudden climate shift which has opened up a hole in the ozone and is starting a new ice age that could wipeout mankind. Of course initially none of the higher ups believe the hero scientist when he tells them that bad things are a happening until, well, worse bad things happen. Taking the form of deadly ice fog (-90 deg) killing in seconds and presumably being able to chase cars. Airliners also crash, a research vessel runs aground full of soggy dead scientists, there are frozen surfers, general panic and running in the streets. You know all the stuff that makes for an "awesome" B movie. Some of the insta freeze scenes are unintentionally hilarious, the budget is low so the special effects are lame and of course none of the science works but I still had a good time with this. I am a fan of the good (bad) disaster flicks though. 12/27/14 Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Read all reviews
