Snow Honeys

About This Movie

So, Snow Honeys (1983) is this curious little gem that really captures the early '80s vibe, you know? Set in a ski resort, it’s got that whole cozy yet steamy atmosphere. The performances from Ken Starbuck and Kara feel almost improvised, especially with their self-aware banter about the paltry $10 they received to participate. The pacing is pretty laid-back, which lets the audience soak in the snowy backdrop and those infamous sex scenes that were pretty daring for the time. There's a certain rawness to the practical effects and cinematography, which gives it that authentic low-budget charm. It's not a polished production, but that's kind of what makes it stand out in a sea of more mainstream titles from the era.

Snow Honeys has had a somewhat obscure history on home video, often circulating in limited runs or within compilations of adult films from that era. It’s not the most widely discussed title, but collectors have a certain intrigue due to its unique setting and unconventional approach to storytelling. While not particularly rare, finding a good quality copy can be a bit of a treasure hunt for those into the niche of early adult cinema.
