Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.
jcromwell66762 This movie was terrible, but not in the "awful" sense. Filled with puns, plays on words, and enough disco nomenclature to satisfy even the most die hard. I just happened on this film, and thought, "What the Hell?". It was worth it. Its silly, its campy, and horribly lame, but a totally delightful romp with the Ginger Dead man. This movie promises nothing, and it delivers in spades!! I watched it 4 times back to back, just because I was laughing so hard. This movie is worth a watch if you just want to laugh at out of date humor, or if you are one of the 8 people who remained sober through the '70's and just want to take a, "roll" down memory lane. I saw there are other "Ginger Dead" movies, I am going to have to hunt them down!! KEEP ON TRUCKIN'!!!
breakdownthatfilm-blogspot-com It's weird how film concepts get lost in translation. When the The Gingerdead Man (2005) was released, it had a certain level of groundwork that it needed to cover. Unfortunately, it only covered enough to make the practically hour long movie far from anything worth more than one watch - even with its minimal strengths. Then came Gingerdead Man 2: Passion of the Crust (2008) which was even less of an entertaining installment. The continuity was loose, the characters were even less likable and the whole motivation behind the killer cookie was dropped. Now we have this movie, which quite honestly is baffling for several reasons. Nothing makes sense here.The movie starts off with an actress knock-off look alike of Clarice from Silence of the Lambs (1991) looking to interview the gingerdead man. But wait, didn't the gingerdead man get burnt to a crisp in the last film? And before that wasn't he burnt to a crisp then too? How does he keep coming back? One word - continuity. Also, the place where the gingerdead man is staying is at a psychiatric ward of homicidal baked goods. So the writers mean to say that Millard Findlemeyer wasn't the only serial killer who had a mother who knew witchcraft in homemade pastries? This is really poor writing. Why does William Butler, a person who has exceptional credentials allow an at least potentially fun franchise go down the wrong path of a good production.A few minutes in, the gingerdead man escapes and happens to find two scientists completing a time machine. So what does Mr. Findlemeyer do? He jumps in of course a decides to use it to help him evade the authorities. The end result is seeing him land in the middle of a discotech in 1976. This ends up pissing the evil (and stupid) cookie off, but he ends up finding a way to cope. How? By killing various people of course. Don't get to excited though because it takes an awfully long time for anything to get going. At least in the first movie it only focused on a small group of people. Here, the audience is introduced to a ton new individuals that don't excel or help move what little plot there already is.The main focus is given to a character named Cherry, a parody of Stephen King's Carrie (1976), the difference being that it takes place at a discotech instead of a prom. Other than that, no other actor makes their characters stand out among the rest. In fact, this movie loves to show a lot of scenes of nothing - specifically scenes of girls giggling and screaming for really silly things. It's just annoying. There was one scene that viewers may enjoy but that's it. The only other thing that helps boost the quality of this picture is the CGI but even then it's too late in some cases. Specifically during the kill scenes, instead of using practical effects, they were replaced with CGI and it looks bad. Topping it off is the fact of adding a ridiculous idea of time travel to an already ridiculously silly (although potentially entertaining) concept of a possessed cookie.It may make viewers laugh in a scene or two,...maybe. This better than average low budget production still has practically no plot, transparent characters and poorly executed kill scenes.
pinheadmother77 I have seen all the Gingerdead man movies and thought this one kicked some serious ass. Maybe it was not as good as part two, but it delivered on what is promised. The homicidal cookie goes knife on a bunch of 70s roller-skating junkies. That's right this one involves time-travel. TIME TRAVEL! That is what the first two were missing. Plus Hitler saves the day at the end. Its so right, but so right. I also think that Gary Busy, that beautiful SOB needs to come back as the cookie monster. Full Moon does it again with the best series since the Puppet Master series. Can you image a Gingerdead Man Vs. Puppet Master movie. Now their would be something to see.
Treyblowski 1.for starters it supposed to be set in 1976, why the heck are there so many modern looking arcade games, Including the simpsons arcade game(considering it was released in the 90s and the show did not even debut until the late 80s), little to no real effort was made to make this a period piece for the 70s, save for clearly costume style clothing and a disco ball, they were too freaking lazy to unplug everything and move it somewhere else for their shots.2. the gingerdead man himself never resembled how he looked in the poster from the first or second film, ironically now the puppet is modeled (at least up close) to look like the one from the posters but now they use a different puppet for the poster for this one3. it has lost all of the seriousity(or seriousness) the first one had I have not seen the second one but judging by the trailer there was more effort, this is just garbage, straight up rotten month old garbage mixed with the stench of dead animals and fecal matter4. no explanation for anything in this film why does a maximum security prison have a time machine? how did the gingerdead man end up there? why does he share a cell with other killer baked goods and pastries? where did they come from? why would you keep acid at a roller skating rink? why didn't they even try to take this seriously? you can make this concept work and make it sort of scary, but they didn't they went the route that made this a bad movie, its not even a so bad its good kind of movie, its terrible, this could compete with oogieloves or return of the killer tomatoes(that was so bad I quit watching halfway through)I wouldn't recommend this to anyone save for someone on That guy with the glasses or channel awesome. I had to leave a lot of stuff out for due to the 1000 word limit final verdict: atrocious
