Masters of Horror: We All Scream for Ice Cream

We All Scream For Ice Cream is a cheesy revenge story that tells the tale of an ice cream clown man named Buster. Buster was a mentally challenged ice cream man who dressed as a clown and made weekly trips through the neighborhood in his Cheery Time Ice Cream Truck to entertain the kids and serve them ice cream. Unfortunately, Buster was loathed by the neighborhood bully, Virgil, who decided to get his friends to play a prank on Buster one day, which lead to the accidental death of Buster.A generation later, the young boys are now grown men with families but the crime of their past may be strolling close for their children. Buster and his ice cream truck have returned in the form of a vengeful spirit to get vengeance on those responsible for his death. Now in most horror clown movies, clowns have a dangerous weapon or some cool supernatural powers to attack their victims. Buster's weapon? Ice cream. Ridiculous right? I said the same thing. Every frozen treat will bring it's own taste of death.Now I'm a big fan of clown horror movies. I love evil clowns, I love clown horror movies but this may have to be an exception. This movie is very 80s cheesy like and almost seems like a sister film to the 1980s Killer Klowns From Outer Space film. Heck, when I first saw the cover for this, I thought it was made in the 80s or 90s. The producers of this movie try to mix horror and comedy at some points but unfortunately they don't do too well at it. The clown is not even scary! Horror movie clowns are supposed to be scary! He may pass off as being somewhat of a creep but even those who fear clowns would probably laugh in his face. Overall this is an okay movie but nothing special. I'd pass on it unless you're really crazy about clown movies

I bought this, not only because it has an evil clown on the cover as I love killer klowns, but because it's directed by Tom Holland who directed Child's Play and Fright Night among others. This is episode 10 of season 2 from the Masters of Horror series. The plot involves Buster, an ice cream man/ clown, who was killed in an accident when a kid's prank went horribly wrong years ago. One night he returns from the grave in full clown make up with the intent of getting revenge against the kids who let him die. These kids are now grown ups with children of their own and it's these children that Buster sets to terrify!

I was pleasantly surprised that in the previews at the beginning of the film that the film I was currently watching was coming soon to DVD. And the movie is as amazing as the trailer I watched for it in the beginning of the film suggested it would be. The film is about a group of kids who jovially murdered a mentally challenged clown who sold ice cream and years later as adults the crimes of their past come back to haunt them in the form of the ghost of the mentally challenged ice cream man killing them off one by one by turning them into ice cream by feeding ice cream voodoo dolls to their children. Yup, couldn't make this schlock up if I tried. I was mostly surprised to see an actual actor in this film. It stars TV actor Lee Tergesen as Layne, one of dumb murder kids all grown up. Hard to think of him as a family man and not in make up and a wig performing sex acts on white supremacists.

I am a very big fan of Lee Tergesen who stars as Layne. He’s an amazing actor and he is well suited for the part. I think this mini movie harkens back to those earlier Saturday and Sunday afternoon horror movies from the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s that I loved as a kid. The child actors are really good, too.

great suspense

creepy karmic clownishly scary

I liked this little short. It was a clever idea by one of the Masters of Horror!

Came on time great movie

this was a fine, if not short, movie....the characters were well rounded and the script was great...the premise of something happening years earlier, with revenge years later has been done over and over again, but this didn't take anything away from the story itself...i love the way the doomed characters died...i won't be going to the mr whippy truck anymore...as for value for money...yes it was well worth it...i've seen other masters of horror movies before and found them thoroughly enjoyable...i recommend this movie to all horror/thriller fans...

Hilarious independent movie with William Forsyth! Didn’t realize though, this belongs to a series .. it’s really just an episode .

good
