Favorite Winter Movies - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Retro4Life · 12-19-2016, 11:10 PM

I'm not talking about Christmas movies, necessarily (though they can be included). I'm interested in your favorite films that had a winter setting.

Here's some of mine:

The Shining
Snowbeast
The Thing (OK it may not have been winter but it was cold!!)
A Christmas Story
Misery
Groundhog Day
It's a Wonderful Life

These were movies where the weather really seemed like an extra character, where it loomed over the drama in a very tangible way.
