Hot Frosty on Netflix (filmed in Belleville) is exactly as good as a movie about a snowman that comes to life should be. Terrible. But Christmas movie terrible, which means it’s kinda good. But also so, so bad.

I think it was filmed in Brockville rather than Belleville, but I'm saying this as someone who continuously gets these two, small Eastern Ontario cities mixed up.
Definitely filmed in Brockville, there were crowds that would watch them film the outdoor scenes and take pictures with the actors. Parts of it were also filmed in Ottawa but not sure if there were any other locations.
Damn. I’ll have to rewatch the gym scenes. See if I can recognize anything. That school felt like a dungeon inside but it’s still nice that it get some use.
I mean I could say the same thing about Weird Science but the woman was didn’t start out with the understanding of an infant. The guy didn’t understand anything when he was turned from a snowman into a human

I’m definitely not the target demo for ‘Hot Frosty’, but I’m glad the local economies benefited from it!
