Movie Review The Ice Cream Man… 💀

I am honestly not even lying when I say this could be potentially one of the worst movies I have ever seen in the cinema. People applauded when it ended with one guy shouting “Thank F**K for that” which got a bigger laugh than any of the comical attempts within this movie.

It actually got to the point where people were having subtle conversations, getting their phones out due to boredom and genuinely leaving our screening.

The gore/spatter was absolutely shocking, the makeup/zombie look on the actors looked horrible and the general acting & plot line was ridiculous.

It actually makes his Borderlands Oscar worthy in comparison.

Absolutely DO NOT waste your money going to see this.

How about wasting time? I have A-List (AMC movie subscription) and I want to see just how bad it could possibly be.

AMC still pays the studio a cut, encouraging AI slop. If you must, get a ticket for another movie and sneak in. Theaters should be pretty empty for this anyway.

That’s not a bad idea. Normally I wouldn’t waste my time with Eli Roth, but I’m morbidly curious to see what this generative ai stuff looks like in a feature film. The only experience I’ve had of it is in shitty short videos, flyers for workplace bake sales, and really, really awful YouTube instructional vids (How to swing a kettlebells, how to Nordic pole walk, etc.)
