Killjoy 3

Does anyone NOT know that this is a low low low budget horror movie? OK good, that's out of the way. Now having said that, if you're still interested, you'll find that this film is a weird, campy, good time. The clown characters are charming in their own demented way and Trent Haaga is perfect as the lead demon clown, Killjoy. If you're looking for a bloody slasher type movie, this isn't it. There are funny gruesome killings but they are almost secondary to the set-up. This has a heavy fantasy element to it. I guess the best way to describe it would be horror/fantasy/comedy. I think it would have played out even better with a longer running time but they did the best they could with the budget they had, I'm not complaining. It has many faults but it's mindlessly fascinating and I enjoyed it. Looking forward to part four.

House-sitting for a professor, a group of friends receive a magical mirror containing Killjoy and his brethren of demonic clowns inside who lure them within to torture and kill them forcing them to find a way of stopping the creatures from satisfying their urges.

This one here was quite the enjoyable and impressive entry in the series. One of the better features here is the fact that this one carries on the series' utterly funny and twisted mangling of the traditional clown torments that are featured throughout here. There's plenty of utterly demented clown puns and sight-gags that are present which are just the right side of morbid to be hilarious while managing to go for a rather frantic series of encounters which are truly demented and somewhat chilling as well, from the one-sided boxing match between the clown and one of the group, the spiraling stairway that keeps twirling around in on itself and the whole dinner basting sequence that features the clowns lavishing her with all sorts of broth and vegetables in preparation for a feast makes this seem like a truly demented and disjointed killer clown effort. Likewise, the finale in their dimension where it goes for the seduction of the group by the two clowns, the different brawling tactics over the dinner preparations of their friend while the whole affair descends into a massive fight with their super-powerful weapons being utilized in a demented yet rather silly manner. With all these providing this one with some solid and rather fun gore effects for the different kills, these here make this one quite an entertaining blast that works well in holding off the few minor flaws here. The biggest issue with the film is that it really doesn't seem to have any kind of coherent plot line present, tending to go bouncing around from scene to scene without much connection between them. Once the mirror arrives and the kids are aware of the creatures within it, they don't tend to do anything which really sets it up from the beginning of how the film begins bouncing around without any sense of coherence and it's quite a goofy set-up to have this carry on throughout the whole film. The other rather big problem with this one is the rather obvious goofy and cheesy time throughout here, from the outrageous creatures, the set-up in the clown's dimension and the wacky action that ensues here doesn't really have a universal appeal in which will allow everyone to get into it easily. It's mostly for the fans of these particularly goofy and cheesy types of efforts only who will get these types of efforts. These here are what hold it back.

Rated Unrated/R: Extreme Graphic Language, Graphic Violence and Brief Nudity.

This is hands down the absolute worst movie I have EVER seen in my entire life. I can't even fathom how the other person that reviewed this could possibly have anything good to say. I went into this expecting a short, bloody, funny, cheesy, horror film with some entertaining blood and guts. What I got instead can be described as "Stephen King's IT: The after school special. If the horrible acting in the first 10 minutes doesn't convince you this movie is the worst thing you'll ever watch... just wait. Honestly, I think this movie would entertain a 3 year old, and they would not be scared. Pitiful and just God awful. Please save yourself and do not watch this video. It has nothing to offer. NOT funny, NOT scary, NOT Gory, zip, zilch, nada, Nothing, The end.

Killjoy 3 is in my top 10 horror film lists for many reasons. John LeChago is the first reason, Written and Directed, he brought a whole new aesthetic to the Killjoy universe it desperately needed.

New characters like Punchy the Hobo Clown (The Behemoth) Played by Al "Mr. Outrageous" Burke, a dimwitted juggernaut who loves bunnies and speaks "carnie." A comic relief and bad-ass brawler also, this is what you do to make your movies better, create fun characters!

Freakshow the Mime played by Tai Chan Ngo, another creative character(s), he also has an undeveloped twin attached at his side! His twin can launch at his victim and drain them of blood, it's bloody horrifying, and he never says a word so you never know what he's thinking!

Batty Boop (The Succubus) played by Victoria De Mare, the sexiest demon in movies I've ever seen. Absolutely loved her in this movie, silly and sassy, great character! Wish she had more to do in the movie.

Killjoy (The Demon Clown) played by Trent Haaga, his performance in this movie made it a success, perfectly cast for this role, especially since he was in the last movie and it was way below par. The small bits and jabs by Killjoy are great!

The combination of the Writing, Directing, and cast made this movie a glowing example of how to do it better! And with the low budget no less, creativity is the key, and actors who can sell the characters on screen!

What essentially hurt the Killjoy movies was the first 2. Part 1 was awful and 2 wasn't much better. Killjoy 3 turns this around and does what the franchise should have done with to begin with. Gone is the urban setting. Gone is the shoestring budget. Gone is the horrid script. Gone is the annoying main character. This one actually makes Killjoy ghoulishly demonic and semi menacing. The story evolves around Killjoy being resurrected once again but not told the victim he is to kill. So in turn he and his newly formed minions are trapped in a mirror which serves as a portal to their world. The mirror gets delivered to a house a group of kids are house sitting and as you can guess they get sucked into Killjoy's world. Full moon seemed to set out and make a decent Killjoy movie which they did. Is it great? No but its entertaining. Killjoy's minions are also a welcome addition (especially Batty Boop) and add some to the movie. Granted this is for fans of the genre or fans of full moon but it works in its own way. 5 out 10. Hopefully these movies keep going this route. It seems Killjoy can't be kept down.
