The Worst Film Ever

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Whoever thought it was a good idea to make this movie and put their name on it should be pitied...Mr. Jingles is, so far, the worst horror movie I've ever seen. It's shot like something that belongs on America's Funniest Home Videos. Everything looks like it was filmed by a $10 camcorder with a piece of sandpaper over the lens. The effects are what you'd expect from a low budget piece of trash like this. Everything looks like it was brought at Walmart, and they overuse the fake blood so much to the point where a gallon of the stuff will pour out of someone's mouth from one stabbing. And if all that somehow doesn't take you out of it, then the cheesy stock sound effects and horrible acting will. Not a single character in this video has any more personality than plank of wood for Mr. Jingles to plant his axe in. The only one in the movie that seems to have any acting skill to speak of is the titular killer clown, who is perfectly over the top and cheesy and makes the film much more of a comedy than a horror movie. And if you are looking for a horror that's so stupid and terrible that its funny, then Mr Jingles is perfect for you.

Hilarious when your high. This should be more of a comedy. If you have any sense of humor this one will have you smiling. Get out the ketchup, spray paints, and water balloons. Your in for a blast. Hehehehe.Mr. Jingles is the man! You got to be to squish a watermelon. Ignore all reviews that are bad for you'll regret not seeing this one. Seems like a cheap made comedy but you will be laughing to the point of busting some water in your pants. Watch out for the dinner bell sound. Lock your doors and windows and burn a big one and bring your munchies because your in for one hell of a show. His laugh is the greatest! You make my kids think clowns are actually funny.

This movie has amazing acting, some very good grammar usage, and a great use of the F bomb! :) this has really inspired me to make my own horror movie and hire all the teenage kids in my neighborhood to come be the actors and directors!! Mr Jingles has a very unique whistle that you can't miss.. this movie really depicts a teenagers life and their drug selling life.. the intro was very long but I'm glad they got EVERYONES name in this intro credits.. the band geeks are a good touch.. what a well thought out plot and setting for this entire movie! I think we need to make more movies like this to appreciate real movies. Glad all the 12 year olds finally got a movie made from their dreams!! <3

Within the first second this movie starts out on a sour note, as two and a half minutes of credits roll against a plain black background, while the music of a garage band Korn plays. When the first actual shot comes up, you will immediately be taken aback by the low quality of the image. This movie appears to have been shot on a circa 1992 home camcorder.First let me note some positive points. To be fair, by the end of the movie I was used to the image quality. Also, the director seems to have some understanding of image composition, a rarity in films of this budget. Don't expect pleasing or astounding imagery, just some competence for a movie of this caliber. The makeup on Mr. Jingles (Dr. Rudy Hatfield, Biker Zombies) was fairly decent. His secondary makeup later in the movie looks like a costume shop quality appliance, but it's still all passable. That said, the Jingles makeup is nowhere near as cool-looking as it is on the cover art. Another positive, there is some attempt at character development. Sound recording isn't impressive, but dialogue is always audible.For those wondering about nudity there are two brief instances, but not likely to cater to all tastes. I'm no puritan, but to have girls get naked for your $500 dollar budget movie just seems tasteless to me. Anyways, watch for the appearance of garden gnomes during the lovemaking scenes. I suspect there is some deep symbolism to be found in these.Writer/director Todd Brunswick (They Must Eat) fails to build suspense in his sequences. Terror sequences with Mr. Jingles are made humorous by the absurd things that come out of his mouth every time he opens it. These quips are the most entertaining aspect of the movie, but I don't think we're supposed to be laughing.Gore in this movie is quite limited, mostly blood spraying onto characters from off camera. Mr. Jingles impales a few people with his small hatchets, though it's usually not exactly impressive-looking. There's a funny scene with Jingles jumping on a goth guy's back, as the guy spits blood out, and Jingles laughs maniacally. Also, watch for the part where the cop fires a gun, and the gunfire sounds like fingers snapping! On a side note, I read somewhere that this movie is a sequel to S.I.C.K., which I have yet to see, so I can't confirm this. However, there is a confirmed sequel to Mr. Jingles, entitled Jingles the Clown (2009).For comparison, this movie is slightly better than Fear of Clowns, because Mr. Jingles has a more engaging story (you heard it here first), slightly better camera placement (close-ups are still excessive, but nowhere near to the same degree), however the lighting was better in Fear of Clowns. All in all, Mr. Jingles has more potential unintended laughs than Fear of Clowns. Mr. Jingles scores points for attempts at character development, laughs (intentional or not), and one obligatory point for the effort to make art.
