Evil Bong 4 (2015) is available for free on Tubi and tells the tale of Rabbit who has converted from preaching from the good book to running a top less bowling alley. There happens to be both a Gingerbread Man and Evil Bong on the premises that plan to make things interesting (as if a top less bowling alley wasn't interesting enough). This movie is directed by Charles Band (Puppet Master) and stars Sonny Carl Davis (The Burbs), John Patrick Jordan (Mad Men), Robin Sydney (The Gingerbread Man) and Amy Paffrath (Disrupted). The storyline for this is crazy but entertaining in a "so bad it's good" kind of way. The film is relatively short (53 minutes) and is carried by...nudity and one-liners. This isn't bad if you liked the previous films, has a few good props and some great "cast selections" but is far from a must see. I'd give it a 3/10.

Evil Bong 420: Worst one yet
Platypuschow27 June 2018
When you go into a movie called Evil Bong 4 your expectations are instinctively going to be low, but they still weren't met.
You see the first 3 movies were dumb stoner films but at least had a couple of redeeming features. This one lacks even those and is the worst one yet.
It's outstanding that a franchise about an evil bong has at time of writing reached the pinnacle of 8 movies, and I do hope they get better after this one.
With about half the original cast returning it tells the story of series regular Rabbit as he escapes bong world to start his own business. What business you ask? A topless bowling alley!
Also starring the wretched Mindy Robinson an actress known for getting her boobs out and literally nothing else. Here she fails to do even that and is just another crappy actress in a role ideal for someone of her "Talents".
As you can imagine the T&A levels are high, in fact in this guys opinion a tad too high. It also features a Gingerdead man sex scene that is uncomfortable more than funny.
Gingerdead man and Ooga Booga from Full Moons other movies are welcome additions and I like the fact they are doing this. Sadly without Gary Busey though the Gingerdead man is simply terrible.
Weakest link in the franchise.
The Good:
Many of the original cast are still present
The Bad:
Mindy Robinson
Pretty much everything about the Gingerdead Man
Less than an hour in length
Pretty crappy ending
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
Mindy Robinson is an inspiration to kids everywhere that they can leave school, have no talents or skills and still be in the movies

Downhill
qcproducer1 September 2020
Warning: Spoilers
This franchise is a downwards slope. First movie is the best and with the second being decent and the third being the last bastion of what I consider a watchable weird film.
Wheres bachman? Or the nerd? Why are they intertwining the series with ginger dead man which admittedly is funny, for the first 10 seconds. Calling ginger dead man a "laughable threat" would be short of the mark. Where are the analogies about the weed industry, like the grandpa representing the black market and the nurse representing big pharma. Where are the character building moment? Somehow i couldn't care less about any character.
All this has been replaced with the "shock" value of a killer cookie and every second shot. I cant decide which ones worse. This one for its lack of a plot or ginger dead man vs evil bong for spending 1/3 of the movie recapping the origin stories of both franchises.
I will be watching high-5 and the subsequent movies because i have hope that the magic of the first 3 can somewhat be touched upon and i do hope gingerdead man gets phased out (considering how this movie ended he will atleast be in the next). Bring the original cast back. (Bachman, jock, nerd, grandpa) Sydneys hot and she pulls off her drama role of the ginger dead man franchise well but the evil bong is alot more funny and interesting.

What the F@#k?

like smokin' dirt weed - gave me a headache
drdeathforpresident22 December 2016
Warning: Spoilers
There's nothing wrong with a talking foul mouthed gingerbread man getting a massage by two topless babes and there's nothing wrong with topless babes hanging out in a bowling alley. Right? This could happen. In my world, it does. One too many times. Have you smoked soooo much pot that your bong talks to you, in a Jamaican accent no less. What's the point?! Really. I guess nowadays 'B' movies stand for bad movies. It's all about cranking out crap by filling it with nudity and bad jokes that usually fall flat. No creativity. It's all about quantity not quality. Skip this one. Please don't pass me this joint, I've got a headache.
Gone in a different direction
Floated219 June 2023
After watching the previous three films in the series consecutively, the fourth film feels like a slightly different change in structure and tone as it has gone in a different direction.
Still being directed by Charles Band, a lot of the main characters that appeared in the first three aren't present here, and there are a few new additions. Alistair, Bachman, Brett, and the grandpa are not in this film. Also to note, Luann (Robin Sydney) appears to have a character name change. She is referenced as Sarah but still appears to be the same character of Luann (this wasn't exactly explained- which caused slight confusion).
The plot focuses more on Rabbit operating a topless, weed smoking bowling alley. Larnell is present but his role is smaller (beard is gone, attire is different, seems to have grown up more). The Evil bong Ebee of course is still here. Now the Gingerdead Man is more of a central character and he has a few highlight scenes (including an odd explicit scene with one of the bowling employees). Also an odd character named Hambo, which he appears to have a pig snot for a nose as he makes pig jokes and puns. Didn't find him funny.
With the shortest running time (only 53 minutes), this really isn't great as it has a different feel. They made sure to provide the most skin of the franchise so far to possibly distract viewers. Surely the could have added more plot development and more depth, considering the ending felt rushed.
Overall Evil Bong 420 isn't on the level of the original but is slightly more entertaining than the third. It's short run time helps it.

The worst in the series yet
s_simov9 July 2023
While the whole franchaise is WTF am i watching silly horror comedy, it has some story and entertainment value, even as it has very bad acting, bad camera work, bad VFX, but somehow it adds to it's charms. The first 3 movies are quite ok to watch.
This on the other hand, is total flop. It has basically no real plot, it's even under 1 hour. The director just wanted to see some naked chicks and that's all the movie has to offer. Pointless nudity. The previous movies had plenty of that too, but it somehow fitted the script. Here the script is 10 times plainer.
Lets hope the next movies are better than this.
