Well "Bo Duke" (John Schneider) did have future after all - and who could ever have guessed that it would involve chasing a yeti around the Canadian forests? This yeti has aged quite well (and his arm has grown back) since "The Empire Strikes Back" (1980) and is narked. Hungrily so - and it's proving quite perilous for the would be tourists to this beautiful snowscape. Anyway, the aforementioned Schneider ("Harwood") finds his party on the menu and it's up to him, daughter "Emmy" (Danielle C. Ryan) and pal "Rob" (Paul D. Hunt) to find a way to stop this beastie before they are all spattered over the snow. To be fair to this, at least we don't rely on heavy scoring and whip-pan photography to create the sense of menace as fairly early on we get to see our predatory menace. It's just that, well, it's not very menacing and most of the people it decides to snack upon are totally deserving of their fate. Luckily the writer escapes unscathed - surely the biggest calamity of this otherwise rather over-scripted, bland and almost comedic attempt at horror. If you want to watch a proper yeti movie that's much better then try out "The Abominable Snowman" (1957) but this is just weak television fodder that merits littles worthy of comment.
