Ice-Cream Man (1995)
|
Gregory has surely had a bad childhood. His dad was an ice-cream man selling street to street and was brutally killed in a drive-by shooting. After years in a mental institution, Gregory is back on the streets and ready to follow in his father’s footsteps. Except Gregory wants to get back at the society that killed his old man. 4 neighborhood kids are looking for stuff to do and when they meet up with Gregory, they suspect something is wrong. The closer they get, the more people who disappear. Once the cops come into the case, they don’t seem to do any better. But the kids strive forward and are ready to break the lid off this
thing. But they may get grinded up before they can tell the world.
Overall: Film isn’t very good and can be quite gross -- after watching this film, don’t buy ice-cream from the guys who pass down your block. If you, look for body parts in it. Clint Howard does a surprisingly good job as the bad guy and the film actually tends to involve more disappearances than deaths. Just don’t let anyone tell you that ice-cream is good for you. Also in special appearance roles are former L.A. Dodger Steve Garvey, People’s Court’s Doug Llewelyn, and Jan-Michael Vincent. Ugh! Gentleman, try retiring!
