Clowning Around in Films

Warning.

Extreme content.

Viewer discretion advised.

Oh, other variations need not apply, so Jack Attack (Demonic Toys) and Jester (The Hole 2009) miss out.

Miscellany

Blood Fest
Zombieland
Hellhouse LLC
The Cabin in the Woods
Hellbound: Hellraiser II
Poltergeist (1982)


Poor old Robbie.

Silent Hill: Revelation


Jesus Christ, that film was BAD.

Clownhouse

From left to right, Cheezo, Bippo and Dippo.


The real clowns are actually innocent, but escaped mental patients (dubbed Lunatics) murder them, assume their identities and stalk three young brothers.

Director Victor Salva was convicted of sexually abusing Nathan Forrest Winters (who was only 12 at the time) during post-production.

Absolutely fucking disgusting.

Film was released on VHS and Laserdisc in 1990, but the 2003 DVD release was pulled from shelves and genuine copies are near impossible to find.

Anthologies

Fucko - Scary or Die (Clowned)
The Laugh - Amusement (Tabitha)
Art the Clown debuted in 2008 short The 9th Circle, but I'd suggest All Hallows' Eve (pictured) introduced most to psychopathic bastard.
