In a movie that could only have been made in 2024, Hot Frosty is the unexpected hit of the season. While we politicos were biting our nails, suspensefully awaiting announcements of Trump’s cabinet picks, tens of millions of Americans were snuggled up on their sofas, watching Gretchen Wieners get it on with a snowman. (Don’t worry, this movie is definitely PG.)

Hot Frosty broke records opening weekend — the movie might just be Netflix’s biggest holiday success. And I can understand why. While the conceit is absurd — and the budget low — the movie is simply delightful. (My favorite part of the Hot Frosty story is that the screenplay was written by some guy on a whim.)
