The Gingerdead Man: Directed by Charles Band and Written by William Butler and August White(Pseudonym for Domonic MuirThis was a suggestion by James Cowdrey but I'm not entirely sure it was a serious suggestion. This movie is called The Gingerdead Man and it features a bonkers Gary Busey voicing a sentient cookie trying to murder people. This was never supposed to be taken seriously. The actual gingerbread man is pretty well done and shot in a way to make it as convincing as it needs to be in this situation. This is an extremely short movie. It says it runs at 76 minutes but it has a good ten minutes of credits. It also has this super cheap royalty free casio keyboard music that runs through every single solitary minute of the movie. If it was used a little more sparingly, it would work better to add to the wacky, goofy mood this film is trying for. There is almost no gore and all the gags you think they would use they do albeit poorly. This comes from Charles Band, that great B movie video king who I enjoyed during the 90s. This has a few moments that are fun in that way but not enough. It's schmaltzy. The acting is abyssmal as to be expected. It's also not very funny. It's what you think it is.I give this movie a D.

Sometimes you've just gotta watch a stinker, and this undoubtedly fits that bill. It's the brief (but not quite brief enough) saga of a cold-blooded killer who's put to death, then somehow returns to life as a stabbin', laughin', wise-crackin', foot-tall slab of holiday confectionery. As if that premise needed a little extra kick, this monstrous devil-cookie also happens to be voiced by Gary Busey. The concept itself is hilarious for all of ten minutes, but burns out quickly as the plot tries, courageously but hopelessly, to make us care about his victims. It's atrociously acted of course, the equivalent of D-grade porn stars who keep their clothes on, so those misguided storytelling efforts don't even have a fighting chance. A moment rarely passes without some manner of absurd stupidity. If it isn't a particularly bad pun, a wickedly awful special effect or a pathetic dash of vacant dialog, surely there's a glaringly obvious editing mistake in view. We're talking night-becomes-day-becomes-night, several times in the same scene. Removing a baking pan from the oven with bare hands, commenting on how its contents are freshly scorched, then casually setting it aside. Firing seventeen times from a six-shooter. Though it runs for just an hour and ten minutes, that seems about twice as long as it should've. I had almost as much fun glancing at the cover art as I did watching the entire thing.

Did Hollywood really need a killer Gingerbread Man? Hollywood got a killer Leprechaun, and plenty of killer dolls & puppets. Did they really need to try and make us afraid of one more thing affiliated with children? What's next, a f**king killer Easter bunny? Okay so here is the plot. An evil Gingerbread man comes to life with the soul of a convicted killer - this real life cookie monster wreaks havoc on the girl who sent the killer to the electric chair. That is just.......................bizarre. I mean it's not good, it is bad, but is mostly weird. No on to the acting. I honestly can't believe that Gary Busey agreed to star in this stinker. I mean he isn't bad in this picture, but he isn't good at all. And other than that, the acting completely stinks. The effects in this movie are freaking mind blowing in how awful they are. Yet again if you watch a full moon movie it is bound to have, crappy effects. The worst part is that there is actually a sequel to this awful film. I haven't scene it, and to be honest I don't want to.

I LOVED this movie! Don't get me wrong, 4/10 is a fair score, it doesn't deserve higher, but still, I loved this movie! And this movie is not terribly made - low-budget horror filmmakers should take note on the movies Full Moon releases, this is how you do it.The interesting thing is it has Gary Busey in it, which provides some star power. Then I started to wonder, how is Gary Busey a known actor? What do I know him from/what films he famous for? I couldn't think of an answer, and I'm too lazy to look here on IMDb, so I just don't care.Anyway, since he's completely totally nuts in real life, he fits his role here well. The actual 'Gingerdead man' running around, and killing people - sheer awesomeness!
