Description
"I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice scream!" is a phrase I grew up hearing quite often(my dad has a huge sweet tooth and particularly loved ice cream). The phrase was first introduced as part of a novelty song in the 1920's but has continued to be part of pop culture ever since. From a young age I remember how funny the name ice cream sounded, particularly when you mashed the words together, making it sound like iscream. Flash forward years later when I decided to dig into the idea of illustrating mashups, puns, and 'Dad' jokes, I knew that Eye Scream had to be a part of the Eye'm So Punny! series.

This is the 2nd in the series and much like the 1st one, iCandy, it's a mock ad, with a bit of horror thrown in this time. The idea of cannibalism always makes me think of the 1973 film Soylent Green, which if you haven't seen I highly recommend, so I based this mock ad in that world.
