You may have seen my 10 Creepy Christmas Movies post, but here’s one that’s snow focused. 

1. 30 Days of Night: The snowy setting of Barrow, Alaska serves as the ideal locale for a vampire invasion, given the town plunges into 30 days of sun-less darkness every winter.
   
2. Dead Snow: Norwegian horror about a group of friends in the snowy wilderness (naturally with no cell phone reception). This time, the foe is a battalion of zombie Nazi soldiers who were killed during World War II. 
3. Dream Catcher: This mess of a Stephen King adaptation throws everything into the mix: aliens, ghosts, psychic powers, deadly infections, evil military men and of course, a monster snow storm.
4. Eye See You: Sylvester Stallone is a burned-out cop who’s trying to drown his sorrows in alcohol after the death of his wife at the hand of a serial killer. He’s sent to a rehab facility in the middle of nowhere when a blizzard strikes, trapping the patients inside with the same serial killer.
5. Let The Right One In: The perpetual snowy landscape in this award-winning Swedish movie heightens the bleakness of the story of a friendship between a boy and a his little vampire friend.
6. My Little Eye:  A group of people volunteer for an Internet reality show in which they’re holed up in an isolated house in the middle of snowy nowhere. They must stay in the house for six months to collect a million dollars, but if anyone leaves, nobody wins anything. Needless to say, when sinister events begin to happen, the paranoid players must decide whether to abandon the house and risk the elements outside or to continue playing the game.
7. Whiteout: The only US deputy marshal assigned to Antarctica must investigate the continent’s first murder before winter sets in.
8. Cold Prey: Jannicke, Morten Tobias, Eirik, Mikael and Ingunn are on a snowboarding vacation in Jotunheimen. They are forced to take shelter in an abandoned hotel when Morten Tobias breaks his leg and their car is too far away for them to reach within nightfall. They quickly discover that the hotel was closed in the seventies due to the disappearance of the managers’ son. Unknown to them, someone is still living in the hotel, and getting home, or even surviving the stay, isn’t as easy as they believe.
9. Frozen: Three skiers stranded on a chairlift are forced to make life-or-death choices which prove more perilous than staying put and freezing to death. 
10. Wind Chill: Two college students share a ride home for the holidays, but when they break down on a deserted stretch of road, they are preyed upon by the ghosts of people who have died there.
