Steve Fearon (84 KP) rated Clown (2016) in Movies

This guy ain't clowning around...
Clown is like a classic twilight-zone style curse movie, where a dad puts on an antique clown suit, which turns out to have dire consequences that essentially turn him into a child eating killer clown.
There are some great comedic moments, as you would expect, some gross body horror, gruesome kills and actually pretty good performances.
Despite the b-movie plot, the acting is very solid, and the whole feel is of a well-made, well budgeted horror film, that would not have been out of place on a decent cinema release.
There are plenty of plot holes, bad decisions and parts that drag on a little, but overall this is a pretty entertaining movie, which provides a throwback experience to an 80's style slasher but with modern production values, so what is not to like?

Creative monster design
While I'm not a huge horror fan, I do have an appreciation for this movie. The tension built up very well at some parts, but the main selling point for me was the monster design. I thought it was pretty cool and something I haven't really seen before (but, of course, I'm not well versed in horror, so what is novel for me may be commonplace for you). Also, the movie had some truly beautiful scenes due to its setting.
The move did have some scenes/shots that gave off Blair Witch Project vibes, but it didn't really take away anything from the movie for me.

Erika (17789 KP) rated Shaun of the Dead (2004) in Movies

I rewatched this film the other night, and I honestly had forgotten how funny this was. It's a great horror comedy, and it still makes me laugh. It's definitely my favorite zombie movie. Edgar Wright's direction completely works, and it's an impressive first movie. I also love Simon Pegg in this movie, but I think I love him in every film.
I think I send gifs from this movie all of the time to my friends to express my feelings.

Morgen Frances (21 KP) rated Stage Fright (2014) in Movies

It’s what I would call a hormedy or in this case even a gormedy. It doesn’t take itself too seriously, there are jokes and funny moments. A good blend of horror, gore, and comedy. If you like your horror movies scary and serious this is not the movie for you. It definitely kept my attention and I’d watch it again.
