Hot Frosty is the new Christmas movie streaming on Netflix. It’s the holiday movie you didn’t think you needed.

Here’s the pitch for “Hot Frosty”: A widow wraps an enchanted scarf around a hunky snowman who springs to life and professes his love. Here are the two possible audience reactions: “How dumb!” and “How dumb — can’t wait to watch!”

More specifically, the exterior scenes of the downtown area in Hot Frosty were filmed in Brockville, a city in Eastern Ontario in Canada. According to a local news report from the city’s HometownTV12, the ice sculpture competition set was constructed outside of the Brockville city courthouse.

Jerry Ciccoritti's Christmas fantasy rom-com film Hot Frosty was released on Netflix on November 13, 2024, and shortly after its premiere, has garnered much attention from the audience.

With Hallmark Channel’s annual Countdown to Christmas and Lifetime’s It’s a Wonderful Lifetime now in full swing, and Netflix and other networks loading their sleighs, we’re here once again to help you choose between the season’s many offerings.

Netflix is releasing many Christmas movies for the holiday season in 2024, including Hot Frosty, which features numerous festive songs.
