Temperature alarm

Long story short, my temp controller spazzed out overnight, causing my freezer to run for hours and hours and, well, lots of exploding bottles. Something weird with the sensor wire, I think. It was reading 14C, but then I nudged it and it quickly dropped down to about 2C.

So now I'm in need of either a better temp controller or a temp alarm of some sort, or both.

I've done some searching for alarms, but everything I've seen so far doesn't really have the range I want, or includes monitors for all sorts of other things I don't need. Is this something that could be easily built? Any thoughts on dependable controllers?
