My favorite piece of Ice Cream Man trivia is that they recently tried to do a Kickstarter for part 2 but only managed to get 4 out of their 300k goal and half of that came from one backer who pledged 2k to pick an ice cream flavor in the movie.

Ice Cream Man is quickly climbing the list of my favourite 90s horror films. It's just such a bonkers and beautiful slab of direct to video madness that would have ruled the sleepover circuit back in the mid 90s. The true magical essence of films like this is unmatched.…

you can tell he’s insane by the way he grips that butter brickle ice-cream. firmly grasping it with his meaty claws. just sugary liquid melting down his arm and he had not one care in the world. imagine how sticky that would be. horrifying

Just a ton of fun. It isn’t a good movie. It’s a great movie. Also, “You little turds are gonna have to learn that you can’t run from the Ice Cream Man!”

Bonkers. Just bonkers. I love that Clint Howard got a starring role to be as crazy as he wanted. This is schlocky horror at a fun level.

Ice Cream Man was great, if it’s your bag. So silly, actually a bit unnerving at times. Perfectly executed tone. 84%
