An American patrol must cross into enemy territory on skis in an attempt to blow up a strategically placed railroad bridge. The troop is led by a tough-as-nails sergeant and a green and untested lieutenant. The mission is threatened by constant bombardment from relentless Nazi soldiers and hostile confrontations with German civilians including a seductive fraulein. Shot back-to-back with Gene Corman's Best Of Haunted Cave in Deadwood, South Dakota, Ski Troop Attack utilized much of the same cast and crew. Roger Corman himself can be seen playing a Nazi leader (with his lines dubbed into German). This was also Corman's first attempt at directing a war movie, a genre he revisited only two more times in his career- The Secret Invasion (1964) and Von Richthofen And Brown (1970).

A very weak and cheap war film by Roger Corman who seems to consider the image of American soldiers on skis to be attractive enough not to bother about finding good skieractors (seeing them snowploughing in the context of an action flick is hilarious). Corman himself played one of the German soldiers and his crew even had to face a mini avalanche during the shooting. That’s all for the interesting part. Charles B. Griffith’s screenplay is plain dumb and lifeless – his work is exciting only when there’s some humour to lighten things (A Bucket of Blood, The Little Shop of Horrors), he is not gifted at all for serious films. Besides, the characters are somewhat interchangeable due to their similar appearance, so you mix up not only the American soldiers with one another, but also the American and German soldiers altogether, often resulting in utter chaos and spoiling even the few action scenes in the film.
