And who can forget Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny?



This cover is amazing!

I'm intrigued. "A Daring Rescue!"

And why are they driving around in that fire truck?

Holy hell! This film is live action? I must find it.
Every dead body that is not exterminated becomes one of them. It gets up and kills. The people it kills, get up and kill.

Haha, yeah, it's one of the most hilariously bad movies I've ever seen, in an "Oh-my-God-is-this-s**t-really-happening?" kind of way. I actually just bought it and liked it so much that I just had to write a Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny review on my blog (and obviously you can tell that I'm not much of a writer). Amazon has a few copies of the VHS on sale - totally worth the 12 bucks in my opinion. I would definitely put this one on a "movies you must see before you die" list!

European cover art for Cannibal Ferox which might not be work safe, so here's the link:

Jumping on the bandwagon:





... and a boy was probably responsible for the cover art.



... the butchering of puppet people?



... where bodiless hands wave goodbye.



... bad hair day AND the promise of Barry Manilow. No thanks.



... is it just me or is there something indesecent going on?

What do you mean might not be safe for work?  I think I need to go clean my mouse off just for clicking on that link!

So that's how they rationalized that they couldn't get a theater to show this P.O.S.

You get a lot of value for your money with that movie. It comes with a free soup recipe.

I tend to think they're a happy medium of awesome AND horrible - which is one and the same on this site!

More examples? Suuuuure:

Watched the clip on the review.

I have to find this film..... Mind bending stuff lol, the daring rescue was great, watch the slowly moving fire truck almost run over the dog...................... Lets dump the kids and the dog.... lol very entertaining. Wonder if a full version is uploaded on the internet somewhere. May have a look later, google videos may have it.

Agh!

With that siren and deranged circus music, the Ice Cream Bunny appears to herald the arrival of Hell itself.

I'm willing to bet the whole thing is some bizarre metaphor. Santa Claus is hope, the Ice Cream Bunny is death, and the children represent the future, which must devour the past. Also, the barking dog is the chaos of the world, bringing Death to our door. Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn represent... well, I have no idea.
Every dead body that is not exterminated becomes one of them. It gets up and kills. The people it kills, get up and kill.
