Secrets in the Snow

It's so bad it's funny. The acting is bad, the plot weak and predictable. But I assure you it makes for a good laugh.

Christina falls in love with Ted who takes her to his home to meet his family during a bad snowstorm and she discovers that Ted's brother died under mysterious circumstances and no one knows what really happened and why. But there's too many obvious clues as she starts snooping around in the house and it's easy to discover the missing pieces before the movie ends. I expected better and would not watch again!

The movie revolves around the death of the boyfriend's brother and it's effects on the family, chiefly it's nuanced dysfunction and oddities. It took place over the course of a long weekend, of course during a sudden snowstorm which isolated the group long enough to have old secrets come out. Basically the protagonist girlfriend who was really a stranger to them was able to solve the mystery in 3 days while the local cops had been unable to decipher it for years.

The movie wasn't bad but most of the acting was subpar. The lead female and the blonde were very good but otherwise, the rest of the actors were less than mediocre. Cringe-worthy in some cases. If you have nothing else going on and the weather is bad and you are supremely bored, give it a go. Don't pay for it though.

Just watched last 30mins of this (channel 5 in UK) whilst pottering around, and although i only saw the last 30 mins, it was so bad that i easily guessed what was what and what had happened. The main thing for me though was the make-up. 2 characters had exactly the same make-up and it suited neither, dark brown matt lipstick way too heavy, and the mother was the same, very heavy matt red lipstick that made her look like a clown. All i could see was the bad lipstick ha ha.
