CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

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-

vvjti *may contain spoilers* In snow mountains, a helicopter pilot crash causes accident avalanche. Trapped family in log cabin rescue pilot and together inside, pilot and family try to survive. Baywatch and Knightrider star David Hasselhoff stars against type as unhinged thief pilot duncan. A father and his two children are trapped together with mystery trapped survivor stranger duncan. At start duncan seems sane and helping family but becomes increasing suspicious acting as family think of how to get out of avalanche. The father becomes frustrated with duncans behaviour but worse things then as duncan becomes violent especially to father and family struggle to shake mad thief off. Boy and girl try to protect father from duncans physical abuse. They are under pressure as father unable to help against duncan. The film is an enjoyable TV film and father role and duncan role are good cast. The film has suspense.

zacneeds How many times did he jeopardise his family by aggravating Duncan? If he had just gone along with him from the start they'd all have dug their way out relatively easily. Instead their persistent Hassling of the Hoff only served to rile him more. He might have been a nutcase but he would have had no reason to harm the family if they had gotten out and would probably have felt fondness for them if they'd both saved his life and helped him regain his fortune. Instead the father begins to get suspicious before suspicion was justified. And why would the daughter say she didn't trust him after he'd submitted his gun to Brian? if she were to be suspicious of everyone who had a gun, she'd be suspicious of a pretty high percentage of Americans.And the scene at the very end with the bloody jeep was the most irresponsible thing I've seen a supposedly heroic parent do in a movie. The chances of them getting out of there after he'd collapsed the whole bleeding cabin on top of their heads were negligible. It was a complete fluke that the son found them as he did.

moviecollector I saw this on Lifetime a few days ago, since I remembered seeing the preview for it back in '94. I never got to see it though.Well, 10 years later & I finally get to see it. Its pretty decent for a made-4-TV movie. The cast is good, well, Mr. Hasselhoff seemed a bit off. He had that cool killer stare, but he's not much a villain. He was still an evil, evil man. I got a good laugh out of it.David also seem to have that Fri. the 13th/Jason syndrome in the movie. HE JUST WOULDN'T DIE!! I would have died laughing, if in the end, the camera pans down to the snow & we see a David's bloody hand come out from the snow & we hear him scream, "BRIAN!!!"Brian was played by Michael Gross, a very good actor. I've enjoyed him from the TREMORS movies.I say, this is worth seeing just to see David Hasselhoff ham it up as the villain after his precious jewels. I should try to find a copy of this on Ebay, hoping its available in America on VHS or DVD.
