Eli Roth horror film Ice Cream Man released
Director Eli Roth has released his latest horror film, Ice Cream Man, which explores a suburban nightmare where a mysterious ice cream vendor provides treats that transform children into ruthless killers. The concept, which Roth reportedly developed over 20 years, subverts the nostalgic icon of the ice cream truck to create a sense of domestic unease.
The plot follows three young protagonists who attempt to escape the curse and uncover the truth behind the vendor's sinister melody to save their town. The film features a cast including Roth himself, Ari Millen, Sarah Abbott, and Benjamin Byron Davis.
