The Jester

I remember watching a 10 minute short of this on YouTube around 6 or 7 years ago. It was clever, punchy and to the point. It worked as a short film, but just doesn't cut it as a 90 minute horror film.

There's not enough material to pad this out to a feature length film unfortunately. The 'Jester' doesn't seem as charming in this, that was one of the great things about the short version, he was a quirky, seemingly harmless fun and somewhat charming character who would ultimately do bad things and that worked. Here, right from the off, he's seen as some obviously sinister threat with absolutely no charm whatsoever.

Unfortunately the short on YouTube was so well received that many commenters were crying out for a feature length film. Well, they got their wish, and i hope they're happy, because this, is sadly very poor in many ways.

This movie is very obviously a sad attempt at recreating Art the Clown from Terrifier. The first 5 mins of the movie there are 3 not so terrifying deaths. Nothing original about this movie. If you want to see a movie like this that's actually good I suggest to sticking with All Hallows Eve franchise. The absolute boring overtone of this movie is clearly evident the longer you watch. The mask should have been a dead give a away that this movie was going to be as dull and uneventful as The Black Phone. There was a lot they could have done to make this movie a success. Sadly it seems they put little to no effort into creating a new concept. Like all other scary movies that have come out post covid, this is surely a flop.

Not in the the Halloween way either..I give it a generous 3 for the Jester and costume. The movie lacked substance. Towards the end of the film it just got worse. I was hoping the reviews were wrong. The low reviews were pretty much spot on. It wasn't comical it wasn't funny so it's like what was it? It is not worth a second look I can say that much. It was kind of what I expected but a little worse. I didn't think he was going to try to pull pranks into murders though. It could of been so much better if it went slasher route. It was a wannabe be Black Book and just fell flat. As I said 3 for the Jester.

Downloaded, watched for 1 hour, stopped. Another day another 10 min, stopped and decided to finish watching the rest.

Not scary, acting a bit poor by some actors. Actor on pretending to be Jester did a good job comparing to other actors and they picked wrong actress as supporting actress for Jester.

Don't really know what else to say because it's literally boring movie for most people. I watched over 1k movies and I do like a good horror movies but this is far away from a good horror movie. I think as well huge mistake was on making all deaths slow because made feel movie as even more slower...

Idk what everyone has been going on about. It's a good B starting and C ending right before Halloween movie. The Villian is great. Great costume and the character is creepy and well thought out. Obviously a small Budget, but overall I think they did pretty good with what they had to work with. A little gore here and there. Some humour. Nothing too unexpected. If anything it was a little unexplained towards the end or lost it's luster a bit. There are way worse movies out here that just have a kid screaming "Babadook" Annoyingly for over an hour that got better ratings. That one I wish I had a heads up it was that annoying. Good B flick 👍
