Snowbeast (1977).

However, unlike others here, I thought it was rather dull....

Then there's Out Cold:

And Shredder - not a lot of skiing, though there is some.  The whole thing takes place at an abandoned ski resort.

Snowbeast Rocks! :thumbup:


Don't forget Avalanche.

Also Shredder; actually a snowboard themed slasher flick.

Skiing is an important plot point in Hitchcock's SPELLBOUND.

And there's COLD PREY (2006) - a supposedly effective teens vs. slasher flick . . . from Norway. Which begs the question: how do you sound scary and menacing while speaking Norwegian?

Morder: Jeg vil nå kappe hodet ditt, du promiskuøse kvinne!
Offer: Nei! Noen behage hjelpe meg å flykte fra den skremmende drapsmann!
Morder: Du hadde hatt seksuelle forbindelser med en mann! Du må dø!
Offer: Herregud! Hjelp! AIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEJKLTE!

filmer som skiskole, ski patrulje
eller ski horror flicks som isbryter, ski ulv
eller filmer som en stor del av filmen handler om en ski fjellstua eller ved et skianlegg

If you're an Andy Milligan fan there's no hope for you.

There are a couple of ski chases in Bond films, in For your Eyes Only with Roger Moore and On her Majesty's Secret Service with George Lazenby.


Javakoala

And we shouldn't forget "The Bat People". It isn't a "ski" movie, but part of it does take place at a ski resort, and it is a hoot.

No one has mentioned "Better Off Dead"?!!?!!? The ski competition is the heart of that movie.  "Go that way. Really fast. If something gets in your way, turn."

I'll second that, great movie.

Big yes to "Better Off Dead" --

Not just a funny ski comedy, but one of the funniest damn films ever of all time!!!

I have no idea what this means.

Psycho Circus

Snowboard Academy (1996)

It has a bit of skiing in it, plus Jim Varney, Corey Haim and Brigitte Nielsen in the same film!  :tongueout:

The Sci-Fi channel film ICE SPIDERS (2006) takes place at a ski resort and involves a scene with mutated spiders waiting at the bottom of a hill to munch on people.
