Gingerdead Man 3: Saturday Night Cleaver (2011)

Better Late Then Never

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Having never even heard of this movie series, this movies was suggested to me on Netflix. When I first saw it, I passed it by thinking it would be ridiculous. I decided to try it, and guess what...it is ridiculous...in a great way! I don't plan to write much, but I will say that if you like campy movies, you will love this one. I honestly think those folks who review it badly do not appreciate or understand camp. Here's the first sentence from Wikipedia describing camp: "Camp is an aesthetic sensibility that regards something as appealing or humorous because of its ridiculousness to the viewer."It seems like a bad movie, but everyone involved in it knows it is larger than life. I read the actors resumes, and they are legit actors; they've done some impressive work. Having seen this movie makes me want to see them all. So I shall.

after browsing netflix and coming across this title I thought "ah what the heck". My expectations were really low but what i saw was actually enjoyable. Our favorite killer cookie escapes from an asylum in a silence of the lambs spoof and ends up in 1976 at a roller boogie where everyone is involved in a whole another spoof, this one being Carrie. As the story unfolds i found myself being less interested in the gingerdead man who wasn't at the forefront of the story like a expected and instead began caring about what happened to the characters. at the end of it all i absolutely did not see the climax coming. two children find gingys remote and accidentally travel forward and backward in time until finally getting back with Adolf Hitler, Charles Manson, and several other evil historical figures in tow. overall its a decent B movie with good amount of comedy and drama thats good for a Saturday night with popcorn and your boyfriend/girlfriend. 7/10

I received this in the mail on Halloween, just in time. It's still better than the original, but very silly. It spoofs Saturday Night Fever, Silence of the Lambs, Carrie, Porky's, Tootsie, and more. The little Gingerdead man is back and more brutal and foul-mouthed than ever. When he's sent back to 1976, he decides to kill the contestants of a roller-disco contest. Cherry Wright (Carrie spoof) is the new girl that everyone picks on, but she's given a makeover and becomes more popular. She falls in love, but tries to kill the evil Gingerdead man before time runs out. This will probably be the last in the trilogy. If you want a silly horror flick, you might enjoy GINGERDEAD MAN 3: Saturday NIGHT CLEAVER!!!

This film shocked me. I am usually criticizing Bill Butler for his awful directing, but this may just be his best film... despite being a low budget Full Moon picture, and the third in a series, it was legitimately funny and a well-made film. (Unlike "Evil Bong 3", which is a waste of time.) Without Gary Busey, you need a good voice to be the homicidal gingerbread man. John Carl Buechler? Good choice. We also have Robin Sydney here (in a very small role) and some great parodies of "Silence of the Lambs" and "Carrie".I will not say this is a "great" film, but it is a fun film. I enjoyed it more than I expected, and I was not even drunk. It looks like a part four may be coming sooner or later, but that might not be the worst thing if done right...
