Ice Road Terror Audience Reviews

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
luvmybabies777 Good actors. The movie was o.k. but so many flaws. Like the ice:when the dinosaur creature broke though the ice it was so thin not even humans should have been able to stand on it without it breaking. Then when its tail went through the woman's chest it went from a huge hole to one small enough for a small rag compression, and she was still alive and able to walk, her spine ripped apart along with vital organs, although her husband died from his wounds.
Paul Andrews Ice Road Terror is set in Alaska & starts at a diamond mining site where the workers have set explosives deep in the permafrost, the resulting explosion exposes a deep pit & from which emerges a giant prehistoric Lizard creature that then rampages through the site killing & eating everyone. Meanwhile truckers Neil Conry (Dylan Neal) & Jack Simmons (Ty Olsson) are making the several hundred mile trip to the mining site in order to deliver a cargo of explosives as well as giving environmentalist Rachel Harris (Brea Grant) a free lift, once they arrive at the site Neil & Jack discover the carnage with severed limbs & blood strewn everywhere. Before long the Lizard dinosaur thing show's up & wants to eat them, they get back in their trucks & drive away but the creature follows them. Will Neil & Jack make it back to safety?Directed by Terry Ingram this is yet more Creature Feature crap from the SyFy Channel, they just seem to have an endless conveyor belt of this rubbish that poops one out couple of weeks. Well lets start off by saying that since this a SyFy Channel creature feature it's almost certain to be a pile of crap so the only question that needs asking or answering about Ice Road Terror is just how big a pile of crap is it? All I can say is that a herd of Elephants couldn't produce a bigger pile of crap than this, no if's but's or maybe's. As many of you will have noticed the title Ice Road Terror is strikingly similar to the popular US reality television series Ice Road Truckers which I admit I haven't seen but it's obvious Ice Road Terror was ripping-off the title Ice Road Truckers & that's just about the most imaginative aspect of this sorry little film that is as generic & dull as they come. OK, lets examine the script a little closer. Some sort of giant man eating monster/dinosaur/animal is brought to life by stupid people, check. We have a hero & a scientist girl who are put into danger when they come up against said creature, check. The situation our heroes find themselves in get worse as they are stranded miles from anywhere with no way to contact the outside world for help, check. Various bit part character's are killed along the way, check. Eventually the creature is defeated by out surviving boy & girl team, check. Predictable, boring, dumb, pointless, badly made, repetitive & a waste of 90 odd minutes I really didn't think that much of Ice Road Terror. Basically it sucks, a lot.Ice Road Terror is very badly made as well, the CGI computer dinosaur effects are poor but the editing is terrible with scenes really not making any sense. The scene when Rachel has to jump between trucks is laughable, also when Jack jumps from his who ends up driving his? When he falls on the ground how does he suddenly appear on the roof? How does the dinosaur suddenly appear on the roof of the truck earlier anyway? Why does it not smash into the cabin at the end? Why, when the explosives catch fire in the back of the truck, is there a little trail of flames from the back of the trailer? The fire is at the other end of the truck for God's sake! Also, those explosives would have went up in seconds & blew them all to kingdom come. The CGI computer scenes of the truck skidding & sliding over the hole in the ice made by the dinosaur is awful, there's no logic to anything that happens & why does the dinosaur see everything in orange? One moment it's on the ground & the next there's a high angle POV from the dinosaur that makes it seem like it's flying! The whole film is poorly made, poorly thought out & not to put too finer a point on it but is total crap. There's a bit of gore, there's some blood splatter, a decapitated head, a guy ripped in half & various severed limbs scattered around.The IMDb says Ice Road Terror had a budget of about $2,000,000 which I find impossible to believe, would it have turned out this bad if had a budget like that? If it did a budget of a couple of million it certainly wasn't spent on locations, special effects or good actor's. The acting is pretty bad, apparently filmed at Britannia Beach in British Columbia in Canada.Ice Road Terror is even worse than what the SyFy Channel usually show under the mistaken opinion that they are films, boy this is bad with awful editing, awful CGI & a terrible script. Not even worth bothering with if it's on telly for free.
Wizard-8 If you are familiar with the movies the SyFy channel produces, this being one of them, you are probably understandably prepared for the worst. I certainly was, but I was amazed that this movie proved to be even worse than I thought it would be! For starters, the creature effects are awful, done with cut-rate CGI. The rest of the movie looks extremely cheap as well, despite the bulk of the movie taking place in the isolated wilderness. But what really sinks this movie is the extremely incompetent writing and direction. There is poor continuity, like when the creature is stabbed in the eye but later is shown with no wound to that eye. (Also, characters several times jump from one location to another in seconds IN THE SAME SCENE!) Even if you watch this during a lazy weekend when you don't want to think, you'll find your intelligence being insulted.
Mark-129 As bad as this film is, there was a germ of something better.A road crew frees a hungry dino-monster in Alaska. The survivors do everything to escape the beast in their ice road trucks.Sounds kind of cool if you're thinking of a certain similarly named TV show.However, this is syfy and the terror takes place on half melted roads for only the first hour or so.With a bit of imagination. style and real location work, Ice Road Terror could have been a nifty little gem.But then, this is syfy.
