Wrinkles the Clown

I was excited to see this after I saw the trailer, but was severely disappointed. This documentary could've been 10 minutes long. There really is no point. The production quality is good, but that's it. The "twist" in the final half hour is lazy and only served to make me angry. Save yourself the hour and a half and watch something else instead.

Is this documentary about "Wrinkles the Clown" as a person? Sorta. Is it about the clown hysteria from a few years ago, and how people reacted to it? It could've been with more focus. Is it about the behind the scenes of making modern day folklore? Again, it could've been with more focus. This documentary, as a concept, could've been incredibly interesting if it decided what it wanted to be. Instead it meanders on "clowns are scary" for a good portion of it's runtime. It's shot well, but with odd (and occasionally bad) editing & pacing. If 30-50 minutes were cut from this it would be a much more solid piece (but if they did that it wouldn't be considered "featured length" anymore.) Ultimately, this probably would've been better as an episode of a mini-series about some related theme (modern day/online horror and how people react to it, etc.)

Not the best documentary but worth checking out. Had some good horror moments and if your like everyone else and hates clowns you will be creeped out.

I like the concept of the documentary, it was just boring at parts

I hadn't had a chance to watch this movie until recently when I actually had a day off from work and other personal obligations. Honestly, I should've just worked that evening. This is BY FAR the worst documentary I've ever seen. The topic itself obviously was enough to get me interested in watching, but that's about it. The overall flow was awful... and focus was primarily on random people who have either come across Wrinkles or who have researched him themselves.. either way, none of the children nor adults featured say anything illuminating or interesting at any point. Just crap.
