The Jester

I am a big fan of horror films. So I love to support independent horror movies. So, consequently I noticed this one could be interesting as very similar movies like the great Terrifier. But I was wrong. This can not be categorized as a cheap copy of Terrifier.

First, The Jester as a villain is great. I mean for a b-horror is acceptable. I've watched tons of worst things, including Zombie's strippers. Yes, it's a movíe. So, the big letdown here is the script. It's only interesting 15 minutes. Then it becomes incoherent and impossible to believe if your brain still works. A lot of plot holes, bad acting and the ending is ridiculous.

Second, overall the whole thing is a mess. A wasted opportunity to create something at least decent. So, much potential wasted. C'mon.

Last, I do not recommend this one, even for people that need to choose between washing dishes or watch this abomination.

This movie is very obviously a sad attempt at recreating Art the Clown from Terrifier. The first 5 mins of the movie there are 3 not so terrifying deaths. Nothing original about this movie. If you want to see a movie like this that's actually good I suggest to sticking with All Hallows Eve franchise. The absolute boring overtone of this movie is clearly evident the longer you watch. The mask should have been a dead give a away that this movie was going to be as dull and uneventful as The Black Phone. There was a lot they could have done to make this movie a success. Sadly it seems they put little to no effort into creating a new concept. Like all other scary movies that have come out post covid, this is surely a flop.

Honestly what in the ever loving flip was that? Whoever wrote this film should never ever ever and I can't express this enough EVER step foot in a writers room again. It was terrible. I mean it was so bad I can't even give it extra stars for the kills that were somewhat good because the rest of the film was just bad. It's a cheap knock off Terrifier and that's pushing it because it couldn't touch it with a 1000ft barge pole. Honestly don't waste your time

Don't even get me started on the acting either. They literally killed off the only person who can actually act in the first five minutes.

I didn't pay a penny to watch this film but I feel absolutely scammed. I honestly would have rather spent my time staring at a wall doing absolutely nothing than wasting my time with this absolute rubbish. I'd give it a 0 if I could.

The movie is good until 3/4 the way through and then, it gets confusing. It lost me. I got bored. The Jester guy is a great villain. I wish the rest of the movie was better. I can't put my finger on what it needs. Something is missing. Maybe better music would have given it more momentum? They could have added more Jester scenes and lost some of the boring conversations. The actors were good. The special effects were great. There was some really creepy stuff. It is a great movie for Halloween. I enjoyed the atmosphere. I couldn't tell what was real and what was here imagination and then, I didn't care. It's too bad. I really wanted to like it.

Not in the the Halloween way either..I give it a generous 3 for the Jester and costume. The movie lacked substance. Towards the end of the film it just got worse. I was hoping the reviews were wrong. The low reviews were pretty much spot on. It wasn't comical it wasn't funny so it's like what was it? It is not worth a second look I can say that much. It was kind of what I expected but a little worse. I didn't think he was going to try to pull pranks into murders though. It could of been so much better if it went slasher route. It was a wannabe be Black Book and just fell flat. As I said 3 for the Jester.
