Directed by Charles Band.
A deranged psychopath returns from the grave in the form of a delicious but deadly treat in B-movie specialist Charles Band's bloody tale of baked goods gone bad. When psychotic killer Millard Findlemeyer (Gary Busey) entered a small-town diner and rained a shower of lead upon the Leigh family, the only family member to survive the horrifying ordeal was devoted daughter Sara Leigh (Robin Sydney). It was Sara's heartfelt testimony that sent Findlemeyer to fry in the electric chair, and also caused the killer's vengeful mother to cook up a diabolical plot for the ultimate revenge. After placing an ancient curse on her son's ashes, Mrs. Findlemeyer mixes the remains into a secret gingerbread cookie recipe and has the malicious mix sent to Sara Leigh's bakery. When bakery employee Brick Fields (Jonathon Chase) cuts himself while preparing the cookies and a drop of his blood spills into the mix, a twelve-inch tall terror emerges from the oven determined to finish the job that he failed to complete the first time around. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

"I'm so glad you watched Gingerdead Man! When I read that I had to smile. I hope you weren't actually expecting a horror film though... but who doesn't love comedy-horrors?! And Gary Busey, of course. [quote user="divinemsjunebug"] Okay I saw Gingerdead Man and No Such Thing this weekend. Gingerdead man was pretty fun, some of the acting was a little bad but Gary Busey was his crazy self, I wish they would have shown more of him and his antics, that was pretty clever. No Such Thing was really good. I had to stop analyzing the movie because it bugged me that this ancient monster that was hiding out in IceLand had perfect sarcastic American Speech. But it really had an endearing quality to it and was very sad. You really could understand how the monster was feeling. Thanks for mentioning those movies, I love seeing films I have never seen before. [/quote] " [More]

I saw that movie knowing very little about it and now the writer/director Hal Hartly is one of my favorites. Yes a lot of his dialogue is very presentational. It's not exactly realistic. It's filled with ideas. People speak their mind wi ... " [More]

"Clearly the gingerbread cookie (voiced by Gary Busey), star of The Gingerdead Man, is the correct answer. Well, either that or Ella in Monkey Shines, played by Boo the monkey. " [More]
