I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

This 2014 horror film stars Andy Powers, Laura Allen and Peter Stormare.
This tells about mild-mannered guy, Kent (Powers) who is a real-estate agent. After a clown cancels for his son's birthday party, he decides to fill in. He finds an old, clown costume and learns it's cursed by an evil presence which causes him to change into something monstrous. Allen plays Kent's wife, Meg and Stormare (Fargo) plays Karlsson, a man who tries to help Kent break the curse. Clowns are truly creepy and this film proves it
much like "Killer Klowns from Outer Space" and "It." It's not bad and features a decent cast & good make-up effects. Check this out at least
once horror fans.

This killer clown thing needs to die off, the only good killer clown movie is IT (both Mini Series and Movie). The director Jon Watts was the director of Spider-Man Homecoming, he did good in that movie and what the hell happen? I don't blame the director, probably studio getting involve. Non of the acting convince me and the writing is dull, also slow pace. I don't mind some slow burn movies but the pacing in this film are terrible. This movie is cliché as hell but it's A KILLER DEMON CLOWN!! WHAT'S NEXT?! A WEREWOLF DEMON KILLER CLOWN FROM OUT OF SPACE?! CAN'T WAIT!! Well, don't watch this movie

The story of this move has been described many times before, so I'll just skip that part.The good: The premise, the main actor, effects, visuals, audio - nothing to get excited about but it gets the job done.The bad: Almost everything else. What could've been a little twisted turn on body horror movies lacks so many key components. The writing is, at best, mediocre, full of stereotypical sentences one might be sick of be now. The pacing is out of place, what starts slowly and builds up some tension, as the transformation goes on and on, flushes everything down the toilet after the first half and goes frenzy in the last 25 or so minutes. A pretty predictable plot and almost every cliché is also on board, myself got pretty annoyed by all the irrational choices the cast does. And no, they weren't done in state of emergency nor panic. Speaking of annoying - the cast. Especially the mother and her son.. a prime example of dull, lifeless and shallow acting. You also get your fair share of "I know that would happen now"- jump scares, which adds nothing to the movie.I give it a 5/10 (a 4 would also be totally legit). It's not a total disaster but overall just another at best average movie in a sea full of average horror flicks.

Am I the only one who appreciates this film as a dark comedy? The premise is straight out of a cheesy campfire story. A haunted clown suit which possesses people with an 'ancient evil'. I mean come on, how can you not see this as a silly satire of horror movies in general?There's loads of darkly comic transitions and juxtapositions, such as the wife telling Jack that 'daddy will be home tonight' followed by transition to him shooting himself in the head. Then the whole suicide scene following that in which you don't want the wife to come in and disturb his decapitation.Having watched a lot of David Lynch recently I have started to rethink what 'bad acting' really is. I honestly think that the awkward set up and exposure of the child actors to their inevitable demise is purposeful. People don't seem to be getting that this is really a black comedy and this technique of ridiculous set up to murder is part of what makes it funny. take that irritating kid playing online games for example, we don't see him being killed but we see his heart being thrown at the TV screen, it's silly. The problem is that people lower their expectations for horror films unless it's so obviously 'arty'. This film has a brutal sense of humor and it isn't cheap in it's jump scare approach unlike the majority of modern schlocky horrors out there.
