Jack Frost (1979 TV Movie)
7/10
Strange But Interesting

I was thinking "This is odd" pretty much through the whole thing. But it kept my attention and I didn't want to turn it off.

Buddy Hackett plays the groundhog, which is a hoot. It's better than his Chinese waiter routine, I guess. The guy who plays the villain sounds like Boris from the old Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoon, but it isn't the same guy.

There are many questions here. Why did Jack Frost choose the name "Snip" if there already was a character named snip? Why is it nobody noticed that the villain is actually a genius with clockwork? How did Jack Frost learn how to tailor?

That doesn't really matter, though. It's about as believable as any of the other stop-motion Holiday specials.
