i be surprise to see that avalanche be produce by roger corman of all people . i would think that even the skimpy budget that this film have by irwin allen standard be not something roger corman be use to deal with . corman do not spend it on big name guest star for sure . his star be rock hudson and mia farrow . hudson be the donald trump like owner of a big state of the art ski lodge which be host that weekend some winter sport event . he be tell like william holden in the towering inferno that the lodge be in a bad place and the snow look like it about to come a tumble down . tumble down it do during a storm when a plane crash into the top of a mountain . the avalanche start and it bury the whole cast in that white stuff . this be a disaster film make on the cheap and some winter sport footage mixed with real avalanche footage and some cheesy special effect by seventy standard to bind it together . the plot such a it be and be almost non existent and the character be never develop in the slightest and so you do not really care about them . i guess the lesson to be learn from avalanche be for roger corman not to try to be irwin allen .
