Jack Frost is a 1998 family film about a man who gets reincarnated in a snowman's body after a fatal traffic accident. This is in order to allow father-son bonding that had never quite happened in Mr. Frost's human life.

Under no circumstances is it to be confused with an identically-titled film that came out the preceding year.

This family film provides examples of:

• Back from the Dead: With a large side of Redemption Quest.
• Barbie Doll Anatomy: When Jack comes back as a snowman, he's momentarily dismayed upon discovering that his new body isn't anatomically correct.
• But Now I Must Go
• Getting Crap Past the Radar: One scene had the titular snowman receive two snowballs to the chest during a snowball fight.
• One-Scene Wonder: The chained-up Superman with Batman's head.
• Papa Wolf: Armed with snowballs. And he knows how to use them.
• Parental Abandonment
• Snowlems: Take a guess.
