I was looking for new gear for this winter on the web and I came across this movie and I got to say, I might want to see it or wait til' it comes out on the Sy-Fy network, but either way I think I might laugh at this, rather than be scared to walk on the ice again. Opinions?

Just one more way to make my wife worry about me fishing

Yeah...I'll probably skip watching that one. I went to see the Blair Witch movie in the theater many years ago and it took a while before I didn't think about that movie while I was out hunting.

Oh no Billybob, Don't go into that old ice shack, I think something really bad is gonna happen !!!

That just may be the first movie I watch in my new shack!!! Can't beat movie night out on the ice, might just as well scare the poop out of yourself before you go to bed.

Just found the preview for the movie, looks pretty decent actually.

Like Dad always told me when I was but a youngin'

Son, keep your eyes and ears open
your mouth shut
your bait safe
your auger blades sharp & sheathed
your feet dry and off the ice
your kidneys covered
your head protected
your poles out from under foot
your thermos off the ice
your hooks sharpened
and hold your doggone mouth right!

The rest will work itself out

Come to think of it, he never did tell me how to catch fish and avoid monsters....

Boy, are they ever getting hard-up for movie ideas. It doesn't look that good to me, they always try to make the movies on Si-Fi look gook good in the trailers but when you actually start watching, the suck.

Ain't that the truth in today's media, it's either crappy sci-fi movie, weird remakes or another sequel... however I wouldn't mind to see a Grumpy Old Men remake.

Instead of "we're going to need a bigger boat" it'll be "we're going to need a bigger tip-up"

Looks like it may be a good movie.

So I wanted to bring this topic back up again solely to inform anyone who has any interest in seeing this movie to know.... that it's definitely as cheezy as it looks, though I gotta admit, I loved the equipment that they used on the ice, what I didn't like was how there was alot of frowning upon new technology on the ice (I.E. Power augers, flashers, under water cameras, etc.), some of the acting and definitely the ending. Not gonna spoil it for anyone who wants to see it, but it really ruins the tone for a monster movie. I actually bought this movie and I feel as though I might just set it aside for the summer just to watch the ice fishing scenes and nothing else after that. Seeing it once was good enough and i mean ENOUGH! Next ice fishing movie I'll be reviewing's Grumpy Old Men.

I love the Sci-fi indie movies. The cheesier the better!

muskiewrangler · « **Reply #17 on:** Dec 21, 2012, 02:04 AM »

Don't get me wrong, I love those too. I mean I watch the sy-fy channel just for those sorts of movies, like Piranhaconda or Sharktopus for some good laughs, bad acting, D-list celebrities trying to be famous again and bad CGI monsters. It's just this one kind of let me down, I mean a few jump scares here and there, but I don't know, I like Michael Rooker as an acter and he did a good job in this movie, I just felt felt like it was kind of a slander against old ice fishing styles against the new and just kind of reminded me of Grumpy Old Men where two bickering sides of people go at it against eachother fo some stupid reason (not bashing Grumpy Old Men btw, one of my top 5 favorite movies)

frozengator · « **Reply #18 on:** Dec 21, 2012, 02:17 AM »

Hey all of you complaining about sci fi channel movies, have you gone back and try watching godzilla now that your older?

LOL It's Horrible! But man did I love watching it when I was a kid.

muskiewrangler · « **Reply #19 on:** Dec 21, 2012, 02:19 AM »

I'm with you there on Godzilla... It's AWESOME! Mechagodzilla vs godzilla was one of my all time favorites growing up and still is today!

"The Dead Sea, Has New Life" - optional title .....

Has anyone seen it yet? I just rented it.

It looks like something you would catch out of the Hudson River in New York
