Chocolate Strawberry Vanilla will drip down screens in May

Last Updated on July 21, 2021

In a competition of horror films with the most delicious title, director Stuart Simpson's CHOCOLATE STRAWBERRY VANILLA would be right up there near the top. On May 24th, we'll be able to find out just how tasty this movie is, as that's when WildEye Releasing will be dishing it out onto DVD and VOD.

Already a cult hit in its native Australia, the film tells the story of an ice cream truck driver's mental meltdown.

Awkward, lonely ice cream truck driver Warren Thompson has two major problems: an unhealthy obsession with a soap opera actress, and a gang of bullies who like to savagely beat him on a regular basis. As Warren slowly slips out of reality and into a psychotic fantasy world to escape his miserable life, a darker, deadlier Warren emerges to deal with his problems and put an end to his tormentors.

Scream Magazine described CHOCOLATE STRAWBERRY VANILLA as "NAPOLEON DYNAMITE by way of TAXI DRIVER", and the TAXI DRIVER influence is quite apparent in the trailer, which can be viewed below. TAXI DRIVER is one of my favorite movies, so that's a plus in my book.

If you want to give this one a try, the DVD is currently available for pre-order on Amazon.
