Written by Eli Roth and longtime friend Noah Belson, Ice Cream Man is set in the idyllic summer town of Bayleen Bay. As you might expect from an Eli Roth movie, the town descends into madness when an ice cream man serves kids sweet delights with horrifying results.
Watch the official Red Band Trailer for Eli Roth’s Ice Cream Man below.
Roth looks to slaughter any sense of good taste with his brand new horror movie, delivering a blood-soaked exploitation film wherein kids are turned into ravenous murderers with only one thing on their mind: killing all the adults in town. The Ice Cream Man trailer calls to mind the controversial 1980s Troma film Beware! Children at Play, no doubt an inspiration for Roth.
Ari Millen (“Orphan Black”) stars in the titular role along with Benjamin Byron Davis (Red Dead Redemption), Karen Cliche (Thanksgiving), Dylan Hawco, Sarah Abbott, Shiloh O’Reilly, Kiori Mirza Waldman, Charlie Zeltzer (“The Handmaid’s Tale”), and Charlie Storey.
Snoop Dogg — who’s also working with Roth on Don’t Go in That House, Bitch — is contributing music to the film, along with composer Brandon Roberts (Thanksgiving).
The prosthetic makeup effects are handled by Oscar winner Adrien Morot (The Whale, Thanksgiving) and Steve Newburn (Frankenstein, Thanksgiving).
Ice Cream Man is Executive Produced by Grammy-winning rap icon Nas.
It’s worth noting that Roth’s Ice Cream Man has nothing to do with the ’90s movie starring Clint Howard. A sequel to that film, however, has been trying to get off the ground for years.
