Surprisingly incoherent and boring

People are voting emotionally.

I gave it a 7.5 out of 10

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

"Night of the Clown" was given to me along with crappy "Evil Night" DVD for free by my friend Lobo.I must say this is among the worst horror films I have seen in 2012.It's strictly amateurish home movie production with some of the worst special effects ever captured on screen.Creepy looking clown killer is murdering various brothers of Todd.Is the killer his wife Lisa or maybe some supernatural entity?"Night of the Clown" is an endurance test for slasher connoisseurs.The acting is abysmal as is the sound.The killings are weird and include fake-looking decapitation.The VHS-quality of DVD is truly ugly and grainy.The film was made by Todd Jason Cook and his wife Lisa and it shows.Todd likes heavy metal,mannequins,dolls,dummies and cats and I like these wonders too,but I wasted 70 minutes torturing myself with "Night of the Clown".A generous 3 out of 10.Meet me in the mosh pit!

Unbelievable, but Todd Jason Cook did it again. After such a nightmare like 'Evil Night' he managed to release on DVD most of his home movies and I was dumb enough to believe this is something else, something better perhaps. Well unfortunately it's not. 'Night of the Clown' is even more amateur than 'Evil Night' (only 'actors' are director himself and his wife). There is no real plot, just killer dressed as a clown killing everyone in Cook's character's house(there is explanation for that but you really don't want to hear it). Death scenes are very original but that doesn't really matter since they are done so badly, there is no fun from them at all. DVD has same quality like 'Evil Night'.Image is little better though. We have some extras like an interview with director Cook(in the movie credited as Vladimir Theobold, Man this name just couldn't be real). From this interview we can see that Cook is very good comedian or very self impressed person. He believes this movie has a cult status(well for him and his neighbors...maybe) and people wanted him badly to release it on DVD. He also confirms it was shot by him and his wife only and never supposed to be real movie which it isn't. There is also an interview with a cat who was in the movie(quite funny actually). 'Night of the Clown' is pure garbage, but for some reason it made me laugh few times(because it was so idiotic, but still...I was laughing) so I will give it two. I promised myself I won't ever again buy any Todd Jason Cook movie(he made a few more of them). They have great titles, but they are simply not worth ANY money. I know that titles like 'Demon Dolls', 'Death Metal Zombies' or 'Evil Night' may look like proper fun, but believe me they are not. It's not a low budget, It's a home movie made by director and his wife. If you have to watch home tape go with Paris Hilton sex tape. At least it has some action...
