Ski Fever (Liebesspiele im Schnee) is a 1966 German-American musical film directed by Curt Siodmak. It is sometimes considered as the last of the beach party cycle.[2] The film was shot in Europe.[3] The movie was the last theatrical feature Siodmak directed.[4]
Siodmak later discussed the film:
[It] was about girls in ski resorts who have lost all morals and about some ski instructors who fool around with them. Anyhow, when I came back from working on it, the sex wave had started in America. You could see all those naked dames and couples in bed, of which I could only talk, but never show. The picture was outdated the day it was released. The permissiveness of the audience had turned 180 degrees.[5]
At an Austrian ski resort, various instructors have a competition who can seduce the most women. Matters are complicated by the arrival of an American ski instructor, Brian, and an American girl, Susan.
