Review of Frosty

Frosty (1965)
7/10
Nothing but pure fun.
26 September 1999
This movie was an absolute delight to watch. Sure it's unrealistic, but it's supposed to be. It's a children's fantasy. The characters like the wicked stepsister, the witch, and Frost himself were a riot to watch. And admit it, Nastika was such a cute and innocent heroine. Those doe eyes of hers just melted my heart. She's one of the few sympathetic heroines you'll find on an MST3K reshoot. And considering this movie was made in the 60's, the special effects were great, like Frost's no-horse sleigh. I say anybody who liked Disney's 'Beauty and the Beast' will like this too, because one is just as much a fantasy as the other. And in case you haven't noticed, this movie won a prize at the Venice Film Festival in 1965. So that should tell you there's something good about 'Jack Frost.'

Bottom line is that it's fun to watch on it's own, and even more fun on MST3K. I give it 7 out of 10. And anyone who calls this the worst foreign movie ever has never seen France's 'My Man.' Now THAT was a BAD MOVIE!
