Gags The Clown

Gags the Clown (2018) is currently available for free on Amazon Prime, and it's a decent addition to the clown horror genre. The story follows a mysterious clown, Gags, who appears throughout a city leaving behind strange balloons. When these balloons pop, they release a white powder that, if inhaled, causes people to go insane and start killing. The local media and a determined blogger set out to track Gags down, as the police struggle to capture the elusive clown.

Directed by Adam Krause in his first major motion picture, Gags the Clown delivers some solid kill scenes and an entertaining storyline. The dynamic between the blogger and the competing news crews was well-executed, and the final funhouse sequence was a standout moment. The acting by Tracy Perez (The Strain), Lauren Ashley Carter (Pod, Jug Face), and Aaron Christensen (Dead Weight, Gray Matter) was above average and believable, helping to elevate the film.

Overall, this is an entertaining film that's worth a watch, especially for fans of the genre. I'd rate it 5.5/10.
