Tagline – “Everyone loathes a clown”

This movie was making a lot of buzz among horror sites and forums a few years back.  The movie, from what I seen, had mixed reviews among those viewers.  The likes and dislikes were at complete extremes.  People really loved the movie or just utterly hated it.  That made me avoid it because I am sick of mediocre flicks that are being produced by the bulk.

I finally sat down and watched it after reading a review online and it sparked an interest. So I caved in and gave it a try.

**Spoiler Alert**This flick follows two tabloid reporters who want to break away from the alien abortion stories and focus on real crimes.  They focus all their attention on a series of murders committed by a clown dubbed the “100 tears murders.”  The killer, Gurdy the circus clown, was wrongly convicted of rape and returned to settle the score for those that falsely accused him.

While investigating the story, the two tabloid reports come in contact with a carnie that fills 100t2them in on the story behind Gurdy.  Gurdy, being the sick sumbitch he is, knows that the small carnie told them about him and pays him a little visit.  It is here that the carnie gives Gurdy a paper with something unknown written on it.  It is then revealed that Gurdy has a daughter and evil runs in the family.**Spoiler Alert**

I liked this movie…for the most part.  The kills are insane and the killer is probably the most brutal killer I have ever seen in a film.  When it comes to the brutality of the kills I honestly think he gives Jason Vorhees a run for his money.  Unfortunately the story is kind of weak and the music during the kill scenes almost ruins it for me.  The music is fast paced trance/techno bullshit which is really annoying when your trying to focus on this film.  To be honest it is this fact alone I gave the film a 2.5 instead of higher.  The music is so horrendous that it kills the horror atmosphere of the film and adds the feel of a European porn or snuff flick.  If  you can get passed the crappy music then give this one a try.
