Apocalypse Clown

This is not something I thought would be genuinely enjoyable, yet alone really good! I figured it would be cheesy and cringy. However, the performances are spot on, and the dark humour is perfect! There are plenty of laugh-out-loud moments, and some clever hooks. It has the feel of so many movies that have come before it, yet it is most definitely unique. In combination, I'm not sure any of these elements would have worked in the same way if they weren't in Ireland. It is a movie I would watch again, and one I'll be recommending to friends. Testament to the skill of the director in pulling this off.

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.

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.

The setting is simple, and yet so bizarre, that it's a wonder that this got funding -- but thank God it did! A group of washed-up clowns find themselves embroiled in a plan to save the day (or ruin it) when the power goes out from a supposed solar flare and everything goes to chaos.

While at times silly (though intentionally so), this film is packed with humour, both in the setting, the writing, and the very physical performances given by several of the actors.

It is this latter that makes this film really shine, elevating it from a fun romp to something more impressive. Natalie Palamides as Funzo and Ivan Kaye as the Great Alphonso are particularly outstanding, and not only deserve strong praise for their portrayals here, but deserve more major roles elsewhere to showcase their talents.

There's plenty of very Irish humour and references here that others might not get, but that's part of its charm. It's good to see Ireland put out interesting and odd cinematic experiences.
