Critic Reviews

  • Felix Vasquez Jr., Cinema Crazed

    It's a fun and cheesy little time killer with a twisted villain that will likely spawn some fans...

  • Lucius Gore, ESplatter

    What makes 'Gingerdead Man' so watchable is just how amazingly stupid it is.

  • Stefan Birgir Stefansson, sbs.is

    as good as one would expect

  • Kevin Carr, 7M Pictures

    To call a film like The Gingerdead Man a horror movie is doing it a disservice... it's really more of a comedy spoof of the genre itself.

  • Scott Weinberg, DVDTalk.com

    "Evil Never Tasted So Good! Gary Busey is The Gingerdead Man!" - That's what you'll see if, for some ungodly reason, you happen to be holding the latest Charles Band DVD.

    Gary Bussey has played a lot of B Movie Parts and though his Cameo was short lived in this flix, he was great. I thought that its was a Funny Slasser Flix, Robin Sidney is the Bomb. If I find it used it goes in the colllection.

    I tought this one would so bad it was gonna be hilarious... but it's just painful to watch. Hopefully the sequel is better. Can't believe a film titled Gingerdead Man disappointed me!
