    don't do it, its not worth it

    this film was actually awful, it cost me £4.95 2 hire this crap so i took it back and got another DVD rental free, do not waste your time watching this, it is 40 minutes of my life i cant get back, in saying that, it is actually that bad, u may need to see it for yourself.the plot, the cast, the setting, the directing was so bad i couldn't believe my eyes, i had heard off a mate that this film was apparently scary, well it is not. At all. she must have been joking. My 3 yr old could watch this and would laugh. thedirector and cast should be shot for producing this utter crap film. i hope they are embarrassed by it, they should be.

    Ice Cream, Ice picks, Poptarts: My childhood as a fat black kid.

    Some people have taken offense at the many references in this film to the stupid fat black kid, but I grew up as a stupid fat black kid and so I felt this film was a lesson in realism for all fat black kids (like myself). I really related to this kid the whole way through. But how could I not??? THIS MOVIE HAS IT ALL! I thought Friday the 13th part VII was good but BOY was I in for a shock! This is by far the greatest horror film of all time! Evil DeadII hath no competition for this FEATURE FILM. The cinematography: ruled. The acting: superb. The writing: intriguing. Buy this film. Own this DVD. Steal this VHS anything to get your hands on the glorious, soon to be sequeled, Mr. Ice Cream Man. You'll never eat a poptart the same way again.

    Best £1 I ever spent...

    What can I say? I found this for £1 in a Blockbuster Sale - it looked kinda cheesy, so I got it for a sleepover me and my mates were having. And it was THE BEST FILM I have probably ever seen. Everything from the horrific camera angles, the slow and pained speaking, the terrible script and inconsistent plot line made this the funniest film EVER. It was like Goosebumps or Are You Afraid Of The Dark, but in film version!! We laughed through the entire thing - if you want a film just to cheer you up, or to laugh at with mates, this is the one. I want to find the director to congratulate him. A fine, quality piece of work. 10/10.

    A Serious Contender For Worst Movie Ever

    This shot on VHS monstrosity is one of the worst time-wasters ever, but that didn't stop a friend of mine from watching it THREE TIMES in a single weekend, much to the horror of everyone else in my house.

    For the record I did not buy nor rent Mr. Ice Cream Man. I got a copy of it passed to me by a guy who was given an armload of promo VHS screeners from the dubbing house he was working for at the time. The other titles included Laboratory of the Devil, Ozone and The Dead Next Door, not too bad, so I took them all off his hands. Big mistake.

    I watched half of Mr. Ice Cream and then, unable to take any more camera hiss, showed it to my roommate who had the weirdest reaction. He didn't love it, he didn't hate it, he watched it THREE times and then didn't really say anything except, "Oh man, that movie is really bad" with a kind of distant, disturbed look in his eyes.

    I asked him why he watched it three times if he hated it so much and he just sort of shrugged. I eventually surmised that the reason he watched it THREE times was because he couldn't believe it was actually real and somehow figured subjecting himself to it again and again and again helped it sink in.

    This is one of those movies that perplexes you, because in this day and age of moving pictures you'd never imagine that someone would make something this totally inept even if it was on a budget of about $20.00 Also anyone who put their kid in this movie should be prosecuted for child abuse.

    Slow Painful Death...

    I actually know the asian kid (henry Weckesser) who played in the movie, we went to Juinor High together. The film was made here in Las Vegas, and it was just horrible. I didn't believe Henry when he told us he was going to be in this horror movie, and then I finally saw it. Oh man was it horror-ible. VERY low budget. It looked like it was filmed with a handheld camcorder (probably was). And to make matters worse, my bestfriend in high school had a copy of the tape because her COUSIN directed it. Small world for a BAD movie.
