Ice Cream Man (1995)

Nomination Year: 2001

SYNOPSIS: Clint Howard (poor Clint Howard) plays Gregory, an ice cream man who loves children -- preferably as ingredients. A former inmate at a renegade asylum, Gregory's mind has been conditioned to "always be happy," thanks to the "teachings" of Buddy Brickle, the late Ice Cream King. Why am I even bothering to try to explain this film? There's no plot. It's just a movie about a creepy ice cream guy who kidnaps kids and chops people up into ice cream. David Warner's also in it, if you can believe it. And one of the kids is named "Tuna." Help.

Oblivious
Is Ice Cream Bad for Your Eyes? The kid "hides" "beneath" a produce display, which has a concealing angle above him of about three degrees. Ice Cream Man misses him. Then, he gets on the bottom of some lady's cart. Ice Cream Man doesn't notice, and she doesn't notice either.	Sorry, this clip has not yet been made available!

"Whoops!"
The Disappearing Kid Three kids are talking, but one of them disappears when viewed from a certain angle, almost as though they shot the scene once with two actors, and once with three actors. Almost as though.	Sorry, this clip has not yet been made available!

Clint Howard	<Not Yet in Database>	Started off as the "This is Tranya" kid on Star Trek, later played with "Gentle Ben," then got relegated to a life of B-Movies. Wouldn't be half so sad if he weren't brother to superstar/director Ron Howard.

Sandahl Bergman	<Not Yet in Database>	Dirty-blonde female warrior love interest who died in Conan
Steve Garvey	<Not Yet in Database>	Was a big-time baseball player in the '70s and '80s. Tried acting. Not as good. Was in Ice Cream Man and The Sandlot 2.
Olivia Hussey	<Not Yet in Database>	Started as "Juliet" in Zeffirelli's Romeo and Juliet, and went unsteadily downhill from there
Doug Llewelyn	<Not Yet in Database>	Host of The People's Court in the Wapner era

David Warner	<Not Yet in Database>	Though usually talented, you can find this elegant Brit almost anywhere, most notably the rich guy's heavy in Titanic, the Cardassian "There-Are-Five-Lights" torturer on "Star Trek: The Next Generation," and of course the literal emodiment of Evil in Time Bandits. Oh, and Admiral Boom in Mary Poppins Returns.
