ClownTown

I tend to grade a movie on a different metric based on where it's coming from. It would be unfair to hold it to same standard as a big budget movie or a known director or production company with years of expertise under their belt. So with clown town I'm being a little more generous than others may be willing to be. Also I've recently seen Clown Motel and Him so those movies showed just how bottom of the barrel killer clown films can go. This film is fairly generic , it doesn't pave any new ground or contribute anything we haven't already seen . However there are some pretty competent moments scattered throughout for a first time director,writer,and producer. The clowns are fairly intimidating as they mostly wear greasepaint and old dirty clothes, rather than full on clown costumes . There are some legit jump scared and some fair gore scenes ,that at least didn't choose digital blood effects. So overall it's still a low budget regional indie horror film that's nothing new , but is very far from being the worst movie I've ever seen.
