In an analysis of Swedish genre films such as "Storm" (2005; Swedish title: "Tempestade") and "Kenny Begins" (2009) by Dan Sjöström, "Frosbite" is discussed in detail. He describes the vampires of "Frostbite" as representing several different types appearing in the genre; Beckert is in one way the stereotypical mad scientist, but is also a loner vampire in the style of "Nosferatu", residing in his castle (in this case the rundown town hospital). He describes the teen vampires as a more sadistic and brutal breed of the undead, an anarchist and aggressive pack straight out of "The Lost Boys".
