    A bunch of halloween store clown costumes, and terrible masks do not a movie make.

    Its pretty funny I definitely had a good time and more than a few laughs watching it. Just so bad. So so so bad. Between the store bought rubber masks and halloween store clown costumes and I'm assuming complete lack of a script kills the horror elements. There is some nice photography the cinematographer/director of photography got some nice shots out of suboptimal circumstances but damn this movie is rough.

    I have a self defense flashlight LOL

    The male character is probably the stupidest horror movie character I've seen in a long time. He wants to go out to the middle of the woods at night and thinks a flashlight with a flashing SOS feature is gonna save him. I think his stupidity then infected his wife because of her whole " they're not dangerous they just returned your wallet" crap. At least she's really gorgeous.

    I just have to laugh at the idiot reviewer here that expected a real horror documentary instead of a found footage mockumentary.

    To the one reviewer who thinks there should be a crossover to hell house llc: why? The clown in that was a prop that the demons or whatever possessed. Has absolutely nothing to do with a bunch of psychopaths dressing up as clowns.

    Minus one star for the stupid political black lives matter crap unnecessarily thrown in.

    A waste of time

    Nonsense dialogues, the story has no substance and the protagonists are annoying af, the most amazing part is when a clown is dancing in the middle of the road with light sticks.

    I mean it was not as good as I thought but it wasn't complete trash

    The movie includes torture and some strobe lights just a warning if you're not into that. So I'm someone who loves horror movies, I've already ran out. So now I'm watching a bunch off prime. So I've always thought the whole 2016 clown thing was interesting so I watched it. Now, the actors weren't good. And the filming was poor but I mean the budget was -1 so it's expected. Watching it, I didn't have a problem because I mean, I knew it was fake and just enjoyed it. Now the plot was good, it had an expected ending though, and some stupid decisions. I looked into Todd Smith after and as expected it's fake. Sooo overall it was poorly filmed, bad acting, not realistic, but I still enjoyed it and if you can get over those three things then it won't be that bad to watch. But if you're looking for something as good as the Blair Witch, you're not gonna find it here.

    Turns out that the only real clowns here are the people who were bamboozled into wasting their time watching this movie.

    This was pretty bad and I'm usually a fan of found footage. The good reviews on here HAVE to be coming from people that have something to do with the movie because theres nothing good about this movie.
