Gary Busey plays a crazed killer who in the beginning of the movie kills a father and brother but spares the sister. Unfortunately for him he should have killed her too since her testimony later sends him to the electric chair. His mother recieves her sons ashes and drops it off at a bakery were the girl works and there it happens to get mixed in the gingerbread dough which makes the killer come back to life again but as a gingerbread man, well a gingerdead man. There he goes beserk in the bakery and tries to kill everyone inside...yawn.
Look at the title, look at the cover and read about the story. You would think that you're in for a funny and entertaining movie experience, well think again cos The Gingerdead Man is an awful flick.
If this movie would have been made in the 80's it might of been cool but watching this now is just horrible.
The humour is non-existant and gore is nowhere to be found. The gingerdead man look ridiculous and all the effects really suck.
The actors give the word crap a new meaning and there's one girl who won some contest called miss pretty face who looks like she's been hit with a frying pan.
This movie should either deliver suspense or humour but it just delivers a headache. The story ain't all bad but the final result sure is. Avoid. I'm sorry I saw the freaking thing.
