Eli Roth (Cabin Fever, Hostel, Thanksgiving) is back this summer with Ice Cream Man, a brand new horror movie that’s coming to theaters August 7 from Roth’s label The Horror Section.
Written by Eli Roth and longtime friend Noah Belson, Ice Cream Man is set in the idyllic summer town of Bayleen Bay. As you might expect from an Eli Roth movie, the town descends into madness when an ice cream man serves kids sweet delights with horrifying results.
Fandango debuted a brand new image from Eli Roth’s Ice Cream Man as part of their Summer 2026 Movie Preview this morning. Meet the Ice Cream Man by checking out the still below.
Ari Millen (“Orphan Black”) stars in the titular role along with Benjamin Byron Davis (Red Dead Redemption), Karen Cliche (Thanksgiving), Dylan Hawco, Sarah Abbott, Shiloh O’Reilly, Kiori Mirza Waldman, Charlie Zeltzer (“The Handmaid’s Tale”), and Charlie Storey.
Snoop Dogg — who’s also working with Roth on Don’t Go in That House, Bitch — is contributing music to the film, along with composer Brandon Roberts (Thanksgiving).
The prosthetic makeup effects are handled by Oscar winner Adrien Morot (The Whale, Thanksgiving) and Steve Newburn (Frankenstein, Thanksgiving).
It’s worth noting that Roth’s Ice Cream Man has nothing to do with the ’90s movie starring Clint Howard. A sequel to that film, however, has been trying to get off the ground for years.
