As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

The spirits of three evil dead clowns who had a "pact with Old Scratch" are revived and raise havoc. Their resurrection happens by accident when Tyler (Jason Crowe) a car wash clown dresses up as one of the trio with the aide of Bryon (Dan Nye). Christy (Jessica Schroeder), Tyler's unfleek girlfriend doesn't think it is funny.The film was low budget. They had money for blood, but not much gore. You see the arm swinging, but not the hits. There was some good dialogue moments, but overall the plot trod along and the dialogue lacked. The acting was hit and miss.Guide: No F-bombs or nudity in the version I saw.

After meeting his new future brother-in-law, our main character, after now hearing an old legend, involving the town they live in, Wasco, decides to poke fun at the said legend, by taking pictures of himself, dressed as one of the three clown killers from the legend - only to resurrect said clowns, of which cursed the town, and swore their revenge. First off, this plot just didn't seem to make much sense. I found it unique, but not in a good way. Having killer clowns resurrect because of some pictures posted on social media? Really? The plot resolved nothing, building barely any story, and, or any character development. The entire plot just seemed really boring, and dull, as said before, it heads nowhere, and on top of that adds no real excitement, thrills, or really anything that'll have the audience entertained, only to throw us into boredom. Following that, the pacing of this film. The pacing was just really bad, in all honesty, we literally get pointless character convocations more than anything. It's true too, barely any of the constant chatter really mattered toward this film / toward the supposed town legend. It's as if the writers ran out of ideas, and decided to make this more of a drama than horror! It truly felt more like an MTV drama, rather than a clown themed horror film, as this film heavily seems to focus more on the characters bonding, rather than anything else. Moving on, through out this movie, we get some clown activity, but it's quite pointless. We literally see the clown run around killing completely random, thrown - in characters that we could literally care less about. Having the killer randomly thrown in kill scenes, with characters that we've never seen before is just random, and does nothing for the movie. Even with that, we barely see any on - screen kills, and the gore factor is practically at a complete 0, we get some syrup thrown about, but that's about it. However, an actual pro to point out. Around the end of this film, the gore / kills became decent. Finally, the characters we have to put up with are bad. Honestly, the actors of the main characters had their moments, but at points seemed to be all over the place with their executions. I personally felt as it, also, these characters were quite clichéd. We have the weak, yet faithful hero, the innocent, worried girl, and the tough, yet strong hearted guy with secrets. Sound familiar? They overall seemed clichéd, and their deliveries as actors were mixed bags, but in all honestly could've been so much worse. In conclusion, sorry, by the way, if the review seemed a bit jumbled, this movie was puzzling to review; This film didn't succeed. As said before, this felt more like a drama, and not a horror. Almost all the decisions of this film resolved nothing, and added no suspense, and no thrills. The characters were clichéd, and even with that the film decides to randomly throw in characters that come in just to die, adding more pointlessness. The plot was odd, and not in a good way, once again resolving nothing, and shaping this film to be extremely hard to follow. There's barely any gore, and no on-screen kill excitement. Would I recommend this? No. I personally think you're better off seeing a better known film, because this wasn't great, becoming underwhelming, and headstrong disappointing.

When I rent what is obviously a low budget horror movie out of the local Redbox, my expectations are generally pretty low. I'm happy to say that The Legend of Wasco exceeded my expectations. It's a pretty decent movie! The acting was good, especially Jessica Schroeder as Christy and Jason Crowe as Tyler (or Peanut). The production values were better than I expected for a low budget indie, and there was a decent amount of effective humor. The music fits the movie well, and the set decoration was great, because it looked like an actual lived-in house, not just someone's spare room. The clowns themselves were menacing and twisted, just like a horror movie clown should be! My only complaint would be the editing. At times it felt like the characters were talking and repeating themselves just to fill time, which slowed down the pacing. All in all, not a bad watch, and definitely worth the Redbox rental!
