Leave your thoughts about The Ice Cream Truck.
| eFilmCritic.comPeter SobczynskiThe film may not be perfect by any means but viewers who are looking for something a bit different and who are willing to weather some strange tonal shifts along the way should probably check it out. |
| Eye for FilmJennie KermodeWith a highly distinctive style and a pleasing resistance to narrative convention, The Ice Cream Truck is a potent, moody, highly entertaining little film that you'll want to watch at least twice. |
| Dread CentralSteve "Uncle Creepy" BartonDespite the titular killer, this is very much [Deanna Russo's] movie... The Ice Cream Truck delivers more than just two scoops of lunacy covered in psychotic nuts and sprinkles. Chill out, and eat it up! |
| Film InquiryNathan OsborneMegan Freels Johnston is rather promising as a director, providing a visual for the film as delightful as your usual truck's treats. |
| Alternate EndingTim BraytonThere's immense charm to the film's engagement with hoary slasher film tropes played mostly sincerely, but with a sense of humor about it. |
| Daily DeadHeather WixsonOverall, Johnston has crafted an engaging and easily relatable dark comedy in The Ice Cream Truck that made for a very enjoyable watch for this writer. |
| Fantastica DailyStaci Layne WilsonAn insidious little pulse-pounder that slowly but surely worms its way under your skin! |
| VarietyDennis HarveyIf the horror aspects are underdeveloped, so are Johnston’s other major ideas. |
| Los Angeles TimesNoel MurrayWhile writer-director Megan Freels Johnston makes some unusual choices that set her film apart from run-of-the-mill low-budget horror, too much of her movie feels warmed-over. |
| WBAI RadioPrairie MillerA scary world filled with everyday, distinctly frightening stuff for women in the real world yet to be mined as fuel for horror in movies - who knew. And kicking in a new and different kaleidoscope of bizarre, amusing and unconventional at the same time. |
