Billy Wagstaff: [bumps into a man on the street] Oh!
Blind Danny Temples: Fucking asshole!
Billy Wagstaff: Look, I'm sorry you hit the ground, but maybe you should have been watching were you're going.
Blind Danny Temples: "Watch where I'm going." Well, I would love to watch where I'm going. The only problem with that is... I'M FUCKING BLIND! I'M BLIND!
Billy Wagstaff: Oh, sweet jesus, I didn't know.
Blind Danny Temples: Hey, you must be blind to. I'm yelling at another blind guy. That's horrible! You wanna touch faces and see what we look like?
Billy Wagstaff: The thing is I'm not... blind.
Blind Danny Temples: Well... joke's on me. I that case... FUCK YOU!

The plot is pathetic, the blind guy is just is a joke, and not a funny one. His antics are so forced and predictable. He trips over stuff and you see him bracing for the fall. He needs to work on his physical comedy.
Most of Frostbite's nudity comes from a hot tub scene that looks like it was shot months later and inserted in to get a distributor. And the nudity is not worth it.
NamoiBucks; it's just a matter of time before Starbucks sues over that. Not even funny. As Billy arrives in town for the first time they come across Namoi Bucks, He comments "Wow they have these everywhere." This leads you to believe it's a parody on Starbucks, but surprise, behind the counter of this location is Namoi herself. Apparently she loves coffee so much that the owner of this huge chain decided to work in a tiny cold town.
The only thing this movie has going for it is the Warren Miller snowboarding footage. Yep this is all Warren's stuff, so if you want to see great action, get a Warren miller flick. Leave Frostbite alone.
There is nothing good about this movie. There is no reason to rent it or buy it, and if a friend offers to loan you a copy for free. Hit him and end the friendship.
