Mr. Jingles

Typically when I rent a movie I look at the cover and read the back to see what it's about and if it sounds interesting i'll watch it. I rented this and the summary was very deceiving, this movie is probably one of the worst movies i've ever "attempted" to watch. When I say attempted I only watched 15 minutes because it was so bad. It's quite obvious the budget for this movie was about $35. It looks as if someone just grabbed their dad's camera and a few friends and made a very terrible movie and sold it to Lionsgate. Don't bother wasting money to rent it or even watching it on TV, although I think luckily for the world it won't be shown on TV.

I am a man who loves bad horror movie but Mr. Jingles really was a disappointment to me. I really hope that this was not intended as a professional effort but as a student film it was somewhat above being a total waste of time. Assuming this is a student film and not a professional effort gives the film a 2 instead of a 1 in my rating.

The film is about a homicidal clown that comes back to haunt a local neighborhood after a past killing spree. Mr. Jingles antics and attempts at witty commentary do make the film almost comic but it is still hard to watch.

Effects and sound quality were terrible. I remember making films w/ a video camera in high school that were on this level. Please spare us from any future efforts. I am praying that Mr. Jingles will not come back to haunt us with a sequel.

I bought this Movie at a cheap discount warehouse in Australia for two dollars, the cover looked very cool and the idea of a killer clown seemed (though not original) something that might be entertaining.

What a mistake, the acting is awful the victims still seem to be moving and breathing, the make up is pitiful, the lighting is bad, the sound is bad (gunshots sound like a toy cap gun) Don't mistake my comment for one of those ïts so bad it must be cool comments, its so bad its just plain terrible.

I cannot begin to describe how bad this movie is, the camera work is so bad using the old trick of editing and cutting to create gore, the sound is very bad, the acting is bad, the story,effects,directing,plot is all bad.

Basically this movie sucks, i give it 1 because you cannot give a lower score

Forget about the total lack of believable plot. And the acting was about the level of a junior high student film. "Goodness, my father has hit in the head with an ax. I must fall down now. And now I must go insane for a few years." Ha ha. The celluloid film quality is only a little better than super-eight film, and the sound is no better that a hand-held Radio Shack tape recorder. Skip this and find some Steven King. This could have been an idea that worked out if they handled the contrasts correctly--an orphaned teen seems non-chalant instead of horrified, police act mildly amused as the shoot the clown in the opening sequence, and the omni-present blood looks like day-glow silly string It doesn't have enough bad lines to be accepted as camp, just faulty cinema.

I knew this movie was going to be bad, but not THIS bad! I think more money was put into making the cover than the actual movie. This is beyond bad. I mean, every second of this film is crap. The acting is so poor that its funny.. Well its funny at first, but after a few minutes it just gets annoying. Its like the actors try to be bad on purpose or something. Or are they all really that lacking in talent? I don't know, and i don't care. I wouldn't even call this a movie. They tried to make one, but they failed. Sorry dudes, better luck next time. Or maybe it would be best if there were no next time. Do not watch this movie. Seriously. Stare at the wall for an hour and a half or something instead.
