Ice Cream Man (1995)

from Subversive Cinema

A story about ice cream, childhood trauma, America's failing mental health system, and Small Paul. Listen in as me and returning guest Mike scoop into the gory bucket of fake blood and melting ice cream that is this film. Directed by Norman Apstein (Ice Cream Man, numerous porn flicks) and written by one-time writer Sven Davison (Ice Cream Man), Entertainment Weekly called the film "entertaining trash," and All Horror said it was "a love it or hate it type of movie." When you have Clint Howard in an all-white outfit and a shit-ton of blood, ice cream, and one-liners you KNOW it's going to be lit. Trust me, I wouldn't end the season on a dud! It tells the story of Gregory (played deliciously insane by Clint Howard) who witnesses the drive-by shooting of his ice cream man as a child. After spending his formative years in the loony bin, he assumes the mantle of his fallen hero after he is released. That's when the murdering starts. Dogs, slutty women, cops, and kids... No one is safe from... THE ICE CREAM MAN! The film is currently available on DVD and Blu-ray, Tubi, Pluto TV, Plex, and AMC+. Thank you for joining this season, see you in 6 weeks!
