The way this film is marketed is truly off-putting, who else wants to watch another alien-invasion movie? I find it truly distracting that “language” is one of the main themes here but the distributor actually did not know how to communicate/market this film to the general audience.

“The Ice Harvest” is a black comedy with the actor, John Cusack in top form. What I found interesting about this movie is that it is based during the Christmas season but there is not a lot of Christmas spirit, unless one is referring to alcohol.
The story of this …
