Clownhouse (1989)
3/10
It tries, but yeah it's bad

I would like to start by stating an opinion; This is the worst film I've seen yet. Clownhouse has an interesting concept of escaped mental patients taking clown disguises who then follow a group of children, but it is not presented and executed effectively. This is due to the lowlights: acting; which is prominent, the writing and story. These drag down the proposed fear factor which was to be three kids in a house who are not sure if there really are clowns trying to kill them, and instead turns the creepy feeling the other way round--disrupting the flow established with the worst performances given by the script and acting. I would say that this cannot be the worst film ever as it did show some talent in the directing of scenes. The lighting was suit for the situation giving an atmosphere and the shots were good for a film without the focus on cinematography.

But really, I gave this film a 3/10 which means I wouldn't watch it again and you shouldn't watch the film but if you wanted to; you could mute it for a silent film which would be better.
