Clowntergeist

This movie cured my clown phobia.

I found this movie to be extremely predictable. It's like the writer searched online for horror movie clichés and used every single one of them in this movie.

Cashing in on the renewed popularity of killer clowns Clowntergeist tells the story of a demonic clown who kindly provides you with a red (Shocker) balloon with the date/time he's going to kill you on.

No poltergeists here, just a really dreadful clown (Not even the one on the poster) who grunts like an animal and has variable supernatural rules.

The cast are quite competent but don't have much to work with and the finale twist is laughable. Would have worked better as a horror comedy.

Want a decent clown horror? Watch Clown House (1989)

The Good:

Predictable but decent opening "Twist"

Some quite original ideas

The Bad:

Crap antagonist

Poor twist

Lore makes little sense/isn't explained

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

The redneck weapon of choice is the crossbow

Warning, this review is more of a rant.

This movie is clearly a Mockbuster that is coinciding with the release of the new Stephen King It movie. Watching the trailer itself plainly displays the directors lack of creativity and originality, and like many wannabe directors/writers, he chooses instead to piggyback off of higher budget movies. This makes the director/creators, by it's very definition, a parasite. And quite honestly, I don't understand the logic. You want to be a director/writer and make movies, but you can't think of and create your own content? Clearly, this movie serves more along the lines as a cry for help than anything else. This entire situation would be different if the movie served as a sort of parody of the "It" franchise, but it's clear that it doesn't; the movie tries to take itself very seriously, thus infringing on copyright and intellectual property.

I rated this movie a 1/10, and I highly suggest that if you appreciate movies and respect the art that they inherently stand for, that you also do the same.

If you think its a IT mockup you,re wrong, it,s not!

Don,t expect a fantastic story, it,s a B movie, but the story works far better then in most of such movies.. After all, a few surprises, engaged acting and a twist at the end - take it for what it is and it will be alright.

I am sorry for the loss of the leadactress,....rip!

A Young girl who's dangerously afraid of clowns get's her worst nightmare to reality when a clown serial killer comes to town. Clowntergeist is one of the worst of 2017, with some of the worst acting I've seen in some time and a horrible script and direction.
