    Appreciate it for what it is

    You have to know what to expect when watching these low budget movies. They are made with a passion for the genre using friends and or family to help with every aspect. With that said this is an excellent addition to Scott Schirmers catalogue. Ellie Church is amazing as always as were Jason and Arthur in their roles. This story is a sad one and probably happens in all parts of the world. Unless you understand exactly what it takes to put together a film, any film, regardless of quality, its tough to sit on a couch and just trash the effort. Kudos Schirmer and crew !!

    lunacy en masse'

    Ive seen a few clown movies latele, from the best performances in the batman movies, to the lowest issued here in the film bad man, a clown with utterly madning needs and cravings set into a mad mans system, trying to make a living doll out of a woman and a dog out of a man,via chemotherapeutic injections of different kinds, and peaking the curve when the he-dog get an injection of viagra, so imagine a dogman on steroids well its a footish gallore of gutwrenching sickness.

    the movies first 10 minutes are of a nice soothing kind, and it is in fact a very romantic prelude of extremely well built interaction between two people who really in love. but when they open the door to hell by letting in a stranger all hell breaks loose.its not a bloody and messy gallore of a horror flick, more a sado-masochistic freakshow, with a lot of psychpathia and sadism evolving the two lovers. if this is your fetish,and if you get wet and hard viewing this madness, then please take contact with your local medical practitioner, because you really need help to rebuild your senses and ill stricken mind. if youre barely normal, dont watch this lame and kindergarten hans ont gretchen medical compound scientific exploratory weirdo business.

    why did i,the grumpy old man watch this sickening ning ning,charade, well mostly due to the rviews,and i now know whos false and whos real, and whos the sick one.and i regret wholeheartedly that i gave 80 minutes of my precious life to this illstricken directed s/m romp.

    Movie stays with you

    Crazy creepiest movie, very intense, the low budget is over shadowed by the great acting from the main characters and greatly put together intense movie. It Starts with little boring and low budget B movie type feel but gets intense and you'll never look back

    what could be a nasty horror turns in a joke

    Nowadays with the revival of the killer clowns productions are trying to make money out of it. And let me say, some succeed and some, like this one doesn't. The story looked promising and even original. Bring in some kinky story with fetish, latex, SM and all that stuff and you do have a story...I thought.

    Sadly this one fails bringing in the horror. It brings in the typical scary jump parts with the clown but once he does invade the home this flick drops down into a boring thing. Even as the clown is doing it's best to make it scary somehow it doesn't. What happens is in stead of having the heebee jeebees I became ridiculous and funny which wasn't intended. The horror just moves away after a while.

    At the end with the rock, you will see, even that part is done off-camera to only show the result and even that is so wrong. Is that the only flesh left behind?

    No, the bad man is more a joke.

    Waste of time and space.

    Based on the synopsis I thought this was going to be pretty dreadful- and it did not disappoint at all.

    I suppose you could call it a brave move for the filmmakers to work out their own, er.... "issues" in public like this, but I really wish they had'nt. It's a film without a single redeeming feature- the acting is poor, the writing execrable and- the worst crime of all- it's incredibly slow, repetitive and boring. I nearly said it was pretentious, but that would be unfair- it has no pretension to do anything than just exist It's like watching paint dry. It goes nowhere, because it has nowhere to go. It doesn't even have the guts to be truly offensive.

    There must be jobs waiting tables that would be more satisfying than making this kind of dross. Probably going to pay better too

    Would not be unfair to say I didn't like this much....
