Every Song and When They Play in Netflix’s Christmas Movie

Spoiler alert: The following article contains spoilers for Hot Frosty.

Netflix Hot cold joins the ranks of Christmas films coming to the streaming service in 2024 and, unsurprisingly, its soundtrack is full of Christmas songs (and some recognizable non-Christmas songs). The fantasy romantic comedy film, directed by Jerry Ciccoritti and written by Russell Hainline, tells the story of a snowman who comes to life and falls in love. Perhaps Hot cold is a typical cheesy and cheerful Christmas movie, but its soundtrack should please any audience.

The cast of Hot cold includes Lacey Chabert as Kathy and Dustin Milligan as Jack. Kathy, who lost her husband two years before the events of the film, owns a restaurant in the small town of Hope Springs. Although she has a great support system, Kathy routinely fails to take care of herself (and her home). However, everything changes when Kathy wraps a magic scarf around a snowman someone built for the town contest. As a result, the snowman Jack comes to life and falls in love with Kathy and vice versa.

Hot Frosty performs festive and non-holiday music

“Jingle Bell Rock” by Bobby Helms – At the beginning of Hot coldLacey Chabert’s character, Kathy, begrudgingly wakes up for work. As the heat subsides in her home, Kathy bundles up and prepares to go outside, as the festive song “Jingle Bell Rock” plays.

“Make It Feel Like Christmas” by Simon Tellier and Victoria Hills – After Mel and Theo present Kathy with the magic scarf (without her knowing), the protagonist walks through the town square while “Make It Feel Like Christmas” can be heard in the background.
