Killjoy

Killjoy was one weird ride through the Hood with a crazy evil supernatural Killer Clown but it's ridiculous trashy fun a typical straight to video type very low budget movie but entertaining!!! That clown cover artwork always stood out to me at the blockbuster video store, it looked extremely low budget trash & years later i finally got it very cheap on dvd & i enjoyed it for exactly what it is a supernatural-slasher type urban set B-movie with a cool looking clown!!! Yes there was mistakes or goofs & most of the acting was terrible or very poor but i liked the urban hood setting & the old school blaxploitatation feel it has & the crazy funny killer clown Killjoy is actually a cool Horror villain & i liked the weird chilled flow of the film with chillout R'n'B background music it's very cool. Killjoy is just fun/silly late night entertainment & you will laugh but it's made with it's Horror heart in the right place. Good fun.

I am one of those people that loves a movie like this, not because of what it is, but because of what it could have been. In this day and age, when everything is getting a big budget reboot, why not throw some money at the writers and turn this into a good movie. The rough outlines of the plot are there, it's not actually a bad story. Just needs a little fleshing out, ya know? Imagine the story if the kills were exciting, and the characters a little less two dimensional. Also, Arthur Burghardt is absolutely brilliant as the homeless man, I think he had a lot of potential. All in all, on my list of "cheesie movies that I could love", this is an 8 out of 10 for me.

My girlfriend picked out this movie. We were in the mood for a corny horror movie. And corny it was. In a bad way. First of all, the film quality looks like it was filmed in 1972. Killjoy is not scary. He is annoying as all hell! He just hops around and laughs like an idiot, hooting and hollering like a wounded dog. His kills are lame, and his one-liners are even worse. The acting, boy, don't even make me get into that. Pay a drifter $5 and they'll do a better acting job than these people. The blood is very fake, the special effects are just... goofy! Another 300 votes and this movie will end up on the Bottom 100 list where it belongs.

How did Killjoy ever get funded in the first place? I cant fathom who would allow this movie to be made. Full Moon productions is always bad, but this was low. Bad acting, ludicrous plot, haggard props, and one ugly clown to boot. It's worth watching just to understand how terrible it really is. Damn my roommate for renting it. There went 90 minutes of my life which I'll never have back.

If you like cheesy B movies, add this to your watch list.

The acting was terrible. To a point where I actually couldn't tell whether the characters were lying to fool the bad guy and intentionally trying to make that obvious to the viewers or not. They were not. It was just really really bad acting. Also, at parts where it was only people having a conversation and no real action happening, the camera man like to wave the camera around wildly. It seemed like it was to make it look more mysterious or dream like, but it really just made me dizzy. However, the clown and the acting of the guy who played the clown were excellent. Most evil clowns in movies are either just plain evil with nothing funny about them, or try to be funny but fail completely. Killjoy has the perfect sick sense of humor for an evil clown. If you enjoy dark humor, I'd suggest watching for his lines alone. The good parts were really good, and the bad parts were so bad that it made them funny. I fully intend to watch the sequels.
