SyFy's Snowmageddon to Wreak Havoc Tonight! (9/8pm Central)



Director: Sheldon Wilson (Shallow Ground, Mothman).

Cast: Michael Hogan (“Battlestar Galactica”), Magda Apanowicz (“Caprica”), and David Cubitt (“Medium”).

Just when viewers thought they have seen it all, SyFy Channel is going to get experimental with Snowmageddon. This made-for-TV product airs 9/8pm Central tonight.

With such an auspicious title like this one, does that mean that all viewers will see is nothing but death and destruction? Yes and No. There's going to be destruction, but when this title implies a blizzard in the likes that no man wants to experience, that is not going to happen. To see mankind surviving within a snowstorm, or even a sandstorm for that matter, can be interesting if the story is done right.

When a mysterious snow globe is supposed to be the link, there is a potential mystery. But this B-movie looks like it will remain simple. When this orb is delivered to a family living in Alaska and they start playing with it, the chaos begins. The fun part will be in if this family will realize that the two worlds are inexplicably linked and if they decide to track down who previously owned the object. Sadly, macrocosms and microcosms are better off to be understood in sociology and literature university lectures than in how they exist in real life.

When considering all the current events about global warming and melting glaciers, maybe some viewers will be hoping that a natural snowpocalypse will happen. This planet can use a global cooling just to offset all the temperature variances that are occurring in certain parts of the world.
