    John Candy as You've Never Seen Him Before

    Another early film role for a then-unknown John Candy in this psychological drama/horror film about a kidnapping prank gone horribly wrong. If you're expecting Candy to be funny, look elsewhere. His character is a pathetic wuss who is caught in the middle of the situation, but his acting is pretty good in a non-comedic role. The film itself is decent, but goes in several directions, throughout.

    I had this movie on VHS...

    and the tape broke. Believe me I was very glad that it did. This movie is very boring and stupid. I do not plan to get this movie ever again even to rent it. Take my advice and be smart not to have anything to do with this movie.

    John Candy not at his finest

    This movie is really quite pathetic. It is a movie about a murderer. The plot is confusing and jumps around so much it is hard to follow. The only reason to actually watch this movie is because John Candy is in it. It is his first of only two dramatic roles that he ever did. There is an embarrassing scene where John's character has a nervous breakdown, and he is seen rolling in the mud in his underwear, blubbering like a baby. The movie aside, I thought John pulled that scene off quite well.

    At any rate, if you are a real John Candy fan, then you have probably already seen this movie. If you are not a fan, don't waste your time.

    A Feminist Slasher From Canada Featuring John Candy.

    Canadian horror icon Stephen Young stars alongside John Candy, in this 70's slasher flick.

    Where a group of friends plan to stop one of their more douchey brethren, from exploiting his wife, in order to cash in on a lucrative land deal.

    Knowing that she owns the property, and must sign over the deed...they plan to dress up like clowns, and kidnap her, until the deadline passes at midnight, on Halloween.

    However, none of them expected that what starts off as a joke will end up progressing to murder.

    One mistake leads to another, they all start turning against each other.

    Just as the cops are beginning to hone in on them.

    Because on top of the scuffed kidnapping...a nefarious actor is hiding amongst them...trying to kill them off one-by-one...

    While the woman they've kidnapped is doing whatever she can, in order to survive.

    Things go from bad to worse as paranoia sets in amongst the group.

    Will any of them make it out alive?

    Or has this sick joke gone too far already?

    Either way, it looks like they've stopped the land deal from going through...

    It's certainly not your average slasher flick.

    Because, while the motives of each character are pretty clear...the way the plot plays out is really quite bizarre, and slightly confusing.

    Because even though the end game of each player is effectively the same...it becomes a kind of proxy war to control- even possess- the victim.

    As they've all desired her, at one point, or another.

    Luckily for her, she is clearly more grounded than any of them.

    And, having realized this, she uses it to her advantage...to play them against one another.

    So, while the men all end up bruised and broken...if not dead...she walks out of the whole ordeal generally unscathed...arguably, even stronger than she was before.

    Thus, hidden beneath the layers of drama is a moral tale with an underlying feminist message.

    A very interesting little flick, indeed.

    5.5 out of 10.

    "It's A Donut, A Plain Donut!"...

    In THE CLOWN MURDERS, a prank goes wrong, resulting in madness and death.

    While this may sound exciting, don't get your hopes up. This is an unexciting, non-entertaining, and fairly silly movie. Worst of all, it commits the unpardonable sin of being extremely boring. The viewer will wait, pray, beg for something, anything even remotely interesting to happen. All for naught.

    It takes until the midway point of the movie for the maniac to -finally- put on the clown mask and get down to business. By the time anyone meets their maker, you'll be ready for death yourself!

    Astonishingly, the final 10 minutes are pretty intense. If only the other 86 minutes had been this good it might have been endurable!

    Co-stars John Candy as Otis. Beware the Otis "love scene"!...
