The new episode of the Best Horror Party Movies looks back at the 1997 killer snowman film Jack Frost, featuring Shannon Elizabeth.

It’s time for a new episode of our Best Horror Party Movies video series, and with this one we’re celebrating the holidays by taking a look back at the 1997 killer snowman movie Jack Frost (watch it HERE)! To find out how we would build a party around Jack Frost, check out the video embedded above.

Directed by Michael Cooney from a screenplay he wrote with Jeremy Paige, Jack Frost has the following synopsis:

As notorious serial killer Jack Frost is being driven to his execution, the truck carrying the murderer encounters a bizarre accident that transforms him into a mutant snowman. Sheriff Sam Tiler, who caught the psychopath originally, has remained concerned about his return, and it seems that his fears were well-founded. Before long, bodies pile up, all killed in gruesome wintry ways.

Here’s what the Best Horror Party Movies series is all about:

Welcome to the Best Horror Party Movies where we single out the BEST horror movies to watch with a couple of drinks and some buddies in tow, even if it’s a “watch party”. Hence movies that are intentionally or unintentionally funny, that are extreme, fast paced, goofy, and raunchy – all the fun times toppings in the house! Films you can pay attention to or you can have in the back ground. We even tossed a party game in there, one tailored to each episode’s selection, including recommended “doses” for toasting (or roasting) all the sleaze, cheese, guts and gore you can stuff into your cranium. So get in here and get crazy… ‘cuz it’s a HORROR PARTY!

The Jack Frost episode of Best Horror Party Movies was Written and Narrated/Hosted by Gregory Burkart, Edited by Mike Conway, Produced by John Fallon, and Executive Produced by Berge Garabedian.
