If you have any advance information about this flick - and that is nearly always the case - you know who is really going to be revealed the menacing, homicidal character, about 1-1/2 seconds (or less) after he first appears on-screen.The supposed "red herrings" here are mostly very light pink ones, and you are constantly distracted that the supposed blizzard, discussed as if it were one of the worst in a century, seems to have remarkable little effect on the goings-on.As another comments indicated, the most redeeming aspect of this film is the attractiveness of the two female leads. Neither the storyline nor their thespian skills offer a great deal additional.

This was a good entertaining film and only because Monika Schnarre,(Liz Garnett),"Andromeda",'05 looked very sexy, hot and played the role of a very very fox lady type. On the other hand, Erika Eleniak,(Barbara Cates), "Brilliant",'04 was the trusting friend who simply adored Liz who worked with her and they were competitors in the same firm, only Barbara was more of a kind hearted soul. These two women decided to take a break from the business world and get away to the North in Canada and enjoy the quiet comforts of a cozy rental cabin. Unfortunately, Liz was not completely truthful about why she wanted to go away and her past was about to catch up with her.

In an attempt to hide out for a short period from the psychotic ex-husband of one of them, two women are trapped in a mountain community by a massive (yet unseen) snowstorm that closes all roads and blankets the entire area except for the immediate vicinity of the heroines. Their retreat becomes less enjoyable when they realize they have been followed the entire trip.Apparently this misnomered movie was written, and directed, by people who had never seen an actual snowstorm. It's very hard to feel suspense when the events and situations are unrealistic, nor when the surprise outcome is predictable from the very beginning. The lack of fresh snow after a blizzard, nor any scenes where a blizzard was occurring, made me gnash my teeth.

This movie takes a LONG time getting to the story. By the time the stage is set, the viewer has lost interest. When the action does get started, it has such a soap opera feel, the viewer doesn't believe it. The best thing about the movie is the lead females are very easy to look at. They have talent, too -- they just picked the wrong movie to show it off.
