Snow Day (2000) *
Directed by Chris Koch. With Chevy Chase, Chris Elliott and Pam Grier. Snowballs fly fast and furious, sleds skid down the mountain slopes, and a sadistic Snow Plow Man (Chris Elliott shamelessly imitating Daniel Stern from Home Alone) engages in an orgy of child abuse. A weird comedy which serves a hefty dose of sugar-coated family-values sentimentality... and a sight of Chevy Chase dressed as a hula dancer.
