About the episode
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron tackle Cool as Ice (1991), the Vanilla Ice vanity project that scored a 3% on Rotten Tomatoes and earned back just $1.2 million of its $6 million budget. The movie is a plotless fever dream where a 24-year-old rapper jumps a motorcycle over a fence to impress a high schooler, breaks into her bedroom to drip ice on her face, and somehow also foils a witness protection kidnapping subplot that nobody asked for. Fun fact: the cinematographer went on to win Oscars for Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan. Everyone has a blip on their resume.
