Blizzard movies!

  • Feb 11, 2010
  • by
After being snowed in for so many days with dozens of inches of snow outside, I got inspired to stack up some of my favorite films with snow themes. If you're still snowed in, or if you have no snow and are feeling left out, check out some of these titles.
1
Fargo (movie)
Fargo (1996)
Snow plays a major role in this film, but some people know how to handle it. Our hero is a fabulous pregnant lady.
2
The Thing (1982 film)
The Thing (1982 film)
You think YOU are cold? This horror movie is set in Antarctica. And something is out there in that snow.
3
The Shining (1980 movie)
The Shining
Cabin fever can get really, really, serious as Jack Nicholson demonstrates in this classic horror movie.
4
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
If you have kids, this may be a more appropriate winter movie to watch. Also a classic and much-loved story.
5
Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back
Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back
Again a classic, the snow scenes in this episode of Star Wars make it a stand out.
6
101 Dalmatians
101 Dalmatians
What can I say? I'm a softie for the Walt Disney classics. And Cruela Da Vil is a fabulous villan.
7
Let The Right One In (Låt den Rätte Komma In)
Let The Right One In
If you're on the vampire kick, check out this Swedish film for some quality filmmaking and vampires in the snow.

Great list! Glad I live in California and we complain about 50 degrees F weather!

The Shining is a scary one and definitely captures the feeling of being isolated in a remote, snowy world! Great list idea! Glad you survived the blizzard:)

Haha, nice theme for a list, Heather! I was expecting more Christmas-y movies, like Home Alone and Christmas Story, but these are friggin' awesome as well! :D

By the way, I hope you're surviving DC! I have a friend who lives there, and he just sent me a picture of his entire car covered in inches of snow! He obviously didn't make it to work :P

The Christmas fun was in the FIRST blizzard. Now we're SNOWver it! Thanks for the warm thoughts, we survived with some good recipes, tasty wine, and thankfully very short power outages. I'll have to make a new list of blizzard survival techniques. ;)
