What people are saying
Updated nightlyThe reception for Eli Roth's latest horror flick is overwhelmingly negative, with most people finding it a cheap, unoriginal slog. The premise of Ari Millen's Ice Cream Man serving up terror is widely panned as poorly executed and derivative, with the story and acting singled out as major weak points. A handful note the gore and dark humor land okay, and there's a faintly positive nod for a brief Clint Howard cameo, but that's not nearly enough to salvage it. For most, this is a summer-town nightmare that's just a bore.
