Gingerdead Man 3: Saturday Night Cleaver

Rating: 2.0, for the absurdity and the fact that this movie exists.

What the hell did I just watch?  The Netflix description:  The Gingerdead Man stumbles upon a time machine and is sent back in time, where he slaughters the contestants of a 1970s roller boogie contest.
Well, you get exactly what you expect.  Cheap, crude, and weirdly watchable.  I have not seen any of the other Gingerdead Man movies but followed the plot of this one fine.  Notes below. 


·         Opening location title card: The Scientific Research Institute for the Study of Homicidal Baked Goods
·         The security guard is dramatically eating a giant sub sandwich during her scenes.
·         Homicidal French baguette: “Hello baby, do you like it long and hard?”
·         Prostitute Pie: “Get me out of here, I’m not a whore.  I just needed the dough.”
·         The beginning is a parody of Silence of the Lambs, complete with a dramatic walk toward a muffled Gingerdead Man.
·         Gingerdead Man knows he transported into exactly 1976 with one only one glance.
·         At 12:16, a random shot of the only two kids at the skate rink, right after the Gingerdead Man utters “ooohhh pussy!”
·         Dimwitted girl: “Maybe we could hold a roller disco bikini carwash in the parking lot tonight!” 
·         Gingerdead Man masturbates to the girls during the car wash.  During this scene, I wondered “How?”  Later, he is shown to have a gingerbread penis.
·         The Carrie White knockoff gets a makeover montage.
·         Why was Gingerdead Man get in the toilet while the lady was pooping?
·         “Looks like everyone around here is looking to get nailed!”, followed by death by nailgun.
·         “Do a little dance, make a little love, commit homicide tonight!” 
·         The title of the film is fulfilled at 51:36.
·         A moment later, Gingerdead Man does coke, DJ’s, then says “Welcome to Saturday Night Cleaver!”.
·         The Carrie reference is fulfilled, as expected, along with Gingerdead Man waving around a gun and cracking jokes while it happens.
·         Adolf Hitler, Charles Manson and Jeffrey Dahmer make appearances at the end, each with an introductory quip.
·         The Gingerdead Man is defeated by being crumbled into a cookie jar.
·         What the hell did I just watch?
