Apocalypse Clown

Apocalypse clown 2023 has some good laughs. I laughed out loud while watching the film. Funzo the clown steals a bunch of scenes. I recommend this movie if you like comedy that makes you laugh.

Apocalypse Clown makes for a wonderful good movie night when paired with other clown films like FREAKS OUT 2021, SHAKES THE CLOWN 1991, and THE LAST CIRCUS 2010.

No, you wont turn into a clown if you watch this movie. Yes, some of the jokes are set up all the way from the start to only pay off at the end.

Other dark comedy films made in ireland that i recommend: GRABBERS , A FILM WITH ME IN IT, and IN BRUGES.

No pun intended - and somewhat aimed at Ivan Kaye - once King in the show Vikings. So no connection between those two pieces of arts - apart from the same actor, but in very different roles. A great actor and he has quite a few good people (well not "good" in that sense) surrounding him.

A violent movie that has some jokes - but even they are mostly violent/brutal. So yes clowns are not (meant to be) fun ... that should be seen as a given, if you watch a horror movie including clowns. The story is quite simple, as are the characters. But apart from some criticism, it will not really surprise you or anything. Just go with the flow and enjoy it for what it is ... it is quite decent ... which cannot be said about the characters ...

In case you missed it, there are some very strong productions coming out of Ireland these days, films and series both. A trend worth watching. Speaking of worth watching, this absurdist gem from writer/director George Kane is also in that category. Film historians will remember when this bizarre style of comedy -- non-sequiturs, inane characters, joined only by the flimsiest of plots -- was the rule, not exception. America in the 60s. Props to Kane and his team for not only retrieving that lost format, but for stretching it to the very limit. A solar flare end-of-the-world survived by roving clowns holds the attention nicely. Not every gag works, and not every character succeeds, but the off-the-wall performance of Natalie Palamides as Funzo more than compensates. Recommended. ((Designated "IMDb Top Reviewer."

I thought this film was alright and better than some reviews would give. Some down on their luck clowns go to the almighty clown the first funerals. While their my favourite clown of the bunch, funzo causes a continuous faud with a statue of liberty Nd another man. Her along with bobo, and three other clowns end up in jail with a roster but when they get out the world seems to have ended. The clowns then set out to find other humans. Put on a show and give their late friend the burial he deserves. I thought the cast was pretty good and each clown was unique and actually pretty funny. The plot was something you don't always see either. Overall a good comedy.

Stumbling upon director George Kane's 2023 movie "Apocalypse Clown" by random chance here in 2024, of course I opted to check out the movie. I have to admit that I was definitely instantly lured towards the movie, given the movie's title, cover and synopsis. It sounded very original and unique, and thus there wasn't a shadow of a doubt of me sitting down to watch this movie.

Writers Demian Fox, George Kane, Shane O'Brien and James Walmsley put together a very unique and outstanding storyline and script. This is most certainly one of the most original and unique storylines and concept ideas for a movie that I have stumbled upon in a long, long time. And it worked, because it was so wonderfully bizarre and far out there.

Of the entire cast ensemble, I was only familiar with Natalie Palamides, Tadhg Murphy and Ivan Kaye. The acting performances in the movie were good, as the actors and actresses put their heart of souls into bringing the characters and storyline to life on the screen. I was especially enjoying the Funzo character and the performance as Funzo that actress Natalie Palamides delivered.

If you enjoy offbeat movies, then I will say that you should sit down to watch "Apocalypse Clown", should you have the chance. It is a one of a kind movie, and that alone makes it worth checking out.

Visually, then the movie was fair. It wasn't a movie that relied heavily on special effects. But the effects that were in the movie were fair. And the props and wardrobe department definitely worked their magic quite well.

"Apocalypse Clown" was quite a surprise of a movie, and it is one for the books. It is a movie that I warmly and wholeheartedly recommend.

My rating of director George Kane's 2023 movie "Apocalypse Clown" lands on a six out of ten stars.
