Off to the good stuff first. * The killer clown is the creepiest and scariest i have ever seen. * Considering its budget, the cinematography, gore, effects and make up are outstanding. * The killings are amazingly enjoyable. In this part the movie does not hold back! * It starts out very promising.

Now for the bad stuff: * They kill the main actress at the half of the movie. So.... there is no one really to care about. * The killer clown could have EASILY been killed AT LEAST 5 times during the movie. Once you realize the pattern as a viewer (the clown hurts the victim, victim fights back, knocks off the clown, runs away, the clown re-hunts the victim), it becomes extremely boring and predictable. * They put supernatural stuff crap at the end of the movie, so the clown can be resurrected at any time, hoping the producers to have an easy sequel excuse.

The worst thing of the movie is the "pattern" as i mentioned. I ruins a movie that had the potential of becoming a cult classic.

After reading all the fuzz of people fainting and/or vomiting, leaving the theater for Terrifier 2 I have to admit I was curious about the whole thing. I do like a little gore movie every now and then and my wife is terrified of clowns so that's a good reason to watch that movie. But first I decided to watch this one, the first one, just to be into the story and to be sure not missing anything from the whole plot. Well that was a big mistake. What a piece of crap this was and like I said before I do like gory movies but this one was so dumb I got bored after only fifteen minutes. Damien Leone gets two stars from me for the butchering parts that were okay considering the extremely low budget this movie must have. But the story, if you can call it that, was just so annoying to watch I already don't feel like watching the sequel. If it's of the same level I will probably not leave the room terrified but bored to death. I get it that this one was low budget but that doesn't necessarily mean you need to have bad actors but in this case you get your fair portion of very mediocre actors. The worst one was by far Pooya Mohseni. Please find another job and spare us from this garbage in the future. I hear McDonalds is hiring so there you go, there still hope for you. I will watch the sequel but to be honest I don't have high hopes. Hopefully I'm wrong. Verdict tomorrow...

Here is a film that will induce a big frown, as a marauding psycho wanders around town, with oversized boots and a dark crooked smile, a bag full of tools to remove and restyle, expresses emotions with gesture and mime, will take all you've got when you've just reached your prime, no mercy or pity, as you beg and you plead, feasting on all features, as you drain and you bleed.

If inflicting and unleashing violence and pain on another individual utilising a range of tools is your thing then step on in and enjoy the disturbing world of Art the Clown as he carves his way through several torsos while teaching Takashi Miike and the butchery trade a thing or two about carcass dissection.
