History Film / AvalancheSharks

* HardDrinkingPartyGirl: [[MsFanservice Lacy, Jenna and Karla]] are always drinking shots, although the "partying" part is downplayed. Carol also notes at the bonfire that Randy will probably look better after a few drinks while he's smiling at the group, although she isn't actually seen parting and focuses more on finding Ross the next morning.

* TemptingFate: [[spoiler:[[MsFanservice Lacy and Karla]]]] just stand up and laugh when they see an avalanche coming, gushing about what a cool sight it is. Even is a shark hadn't burst through the flor of the hot tub and eaten them, that probably wouldn't have ended well.

** [[spoiler: [[TooDumbToLive Lacy and Karla]] are convinced that it's a ScrewballComedy where the missing person just went home in someone else's car by mistake or keeps missing the person looking for them.

* AmbiguouslyBi: [[MsFanservice Jenna]] is seen eying guys with her friends and acting a bit flirty a few times but has a lot of scenes which ''could'' indicate an attraction to girls but also have alternate explanations. She makes a toast to "Girls Gone Wild" at one point (although it's unclear if she was serious, or meant that in a sexual sense if she was), holds hands with Lacy once (albeit while their going through snow and a little off-balance), spends a lot of time in the hot tub with just two other girls in bikinis (although Lacy simply makes a toast to her "best friends, ever" implying a lack of romantic feelings at least on her part), and shows a clear lack of interest when Randy flirts with her (although this is implied to be because of a crude double innuendo Randy made).

* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: Kind of. Lacy, Karla and Jenna, the three girls who hang around the jacuzzi are a blonde, a dark-haired brunette, and brown-haired brunette whose hair has a slight red tint to it under certain light.

** Downplayed with Duffy. When he first sees Lacy and Jenna wearing skimpy tops he tells his sled dog that "Half a century ago, I would have given them what for" but he never actually hits on or leers any woman up close for the rest of the film.

* GenkiGirl: Lacy is constantly cheerful and excited about the weekend and tries to brush off anything that could put a damper on the mood. Even seeing an avalanche heading their way simply provokes a TheWorldIsJustAwesome reaction from her.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Four of the five blonde women at the resort (Madison, Carol, Lacy and Diana) are portrayed as decent and caring.

Carol also notes at the bonfire that Randy will probably look better after a few drinks while he's smiling at the group, although she isn't actually seen parting and focuses more on finding Ross the next morning.

* LovableAlphaBitch: Jenna is a college spring-breaker version . She's introduced throwing her top at the sheriff and laughingly saying "everything goes" after he asks her and Lacy to show less skin. Later, when Randy tries to flirt with her, she walks away and says "loser alert." However, the next day she's shown cheerfully hanging out with Randy and approving of his crush on Carol. She also takes Wade and Madison seriously rather than ignore their YouHaveToBelieveMe warnings, helps them try to warn people, looks shocked when Wade accidentally hits Madison during a struggle with a lift attendant, and then helps Madison up.

* PrettyInMink: Downplayed, Carol has a fur ski jacket on for the entirety of her screen-time and while fairly pretty is actually one of the least-sexualized women in the movie. Jenna also has on a mirdriff-baring mink vest in her first scene, but she tosses it off after about ten seconds of screen-time.

** Jenna tosses off her vest at the ski resort and spends a while walking around with just a bikini top.

Avalanche Sharks is a DirectToVideo BMovie that follows a ski resort being plagued by sharks. Sharks that are somehow burrowing through the snow and eating anyone they come across. As more people disappear, the local sheriff, and various friends and relatives of the victims, begin delving into the matter, against the wishes of the local resort owner and mayor. The framing device is a man in a hospital explaining everything that went on to a nurse who is specifically noted to be a figment of his imagination. Serves as a SpiritualSuccessor to a similar film, ''Film/SandSharks''.

* ScarilyCompetentTracker: When spring-breaker Carol goes searching for her missing cousin Ross in a wooded area she is only visiting, a snowfall has buried both his tracks and the goggles he dropped before being beaten. However, Carol finds the goggles, glimpsing an extremely small and nondistinctive part of them that isn't quite buried, and digs them up to find proof something happened to Ross. That being said, this is partially a lucky break, as Carol admits to being unsure about whether or not Ross really did venture that far into the woods right before finding the goggles.
