My Thoughts:

This film was a lot of fun... I did enjoy it and would like to add it to my collection before too long. But I must say it was much longer then it needed to be. I think it would have made a better story if it was edited down about half an hour.

Rating:

Frosty's Winter Wonderland, a review by addicted2comics


Ok, this disc comes with two Christmas Specials, so I'll review them both at once! :P


Frosty's Winter Wonderland/Twas the Night Before Christmas

Plot: Frosty has returned from the North Pole and feels lonely as he watches the children retreat inside -- where he'd melt -- each night. So the kids build him a snow-wife named Crystal and a snow parson to marry them. Meanwhile jealous ice-blue Jack Frost tries to quash Frosty's popularity with the children, but finds out it's not as easy as it looks.

In Twas the Night Before Christmas, Scrooge-like Albert Mouse, who calls Christmas "a fradulent myth" and intercepts letters to Santa Claus written by the Children of Junctionville.The skeptical rodent must be brought to his senses "and let up a little on the wonder why."

My Thoughts: Frosty is a cute little story hear where he takes a wife, and it's kinda fun watching Jack Frost trying to take up all the attention. All the same, it's geared toward the younger crowd, classic it may be, so I think all I can give that piece is a 3 out of 5.

In Twas the Night Before Christmas, it's cool how it's reaching a new generaion for kids to understand Scrooge, and at the same time being comical, talking mice and all. It's real cute seeing the people trying to make Santa happy, but still a little juvenile for my taste, though it's wonderful and traditional around Christmas, earns a 3.5 out of 5.

Pete's Pilots, a review by addicted2dvd



Fear Itself
Terror has a new name: "Fear Itself"! A 13-episode suspence and horror anthology series, "Fear Itself" takes horror to shocking new heights with its mix of mind-bending stories, spine-tingling chills, and top Hollywood talent including acclaimed directors John Landis (An American Werewolf in London), Darren Lynn Bousman (Saw II, Saw III and Saw IV) and Ronnie Yu (Bride of Chucky); actors Brandon Routh (Superman Returns), Shiri Appleby (Charlie Wilson's War), Elizabeth Moss ("Mad Men"), Cynthia Watros ("Lost"), Eric Roberts ("Heroes") and John Billingsley ("Star Trek: Enterprise"); and writers Joe Gangemi (Wind Chill, the novel "Inamorata"), Steve Niles (30 Days of Night) and Dan Knauf ("Carnivale," "Supernatural").

The Sacrifice
Two brothers, Point and Lemon, along with two of their friends, end up stranded at an old fort and slowly discover that the three sisters who reside there are hiding a deadly secret.

My Thoughts:
I am sure it is of no surprise that I enjoyed this episode a lot. Of course I like most shows about vampires. You never really get that good of a look at the creature in this episode... it is always either out of view or the views are so quick that you don't get a good look at him.

My Rating:
