Trivia
David Howard Thornton was the sixth person who auditioned for Art The Clown after Mike Giannelli retired from the role and acting altogether. During the audition, he began miming tasting his beheaded victim's blood, but then added salt to it to improve its flavor. This is what won him the role.

Goofs
When Art the Clown murders the first exterminator by stomping on his face, his skull is shattered and his head is left completely destroyed. When his body is shown in the morgue near the end, however, there is noticeably far less damage.

Quotes
EMT Roman: How can you eat a greasy croissant while you're cutting up dead bodies?
Coroner: Sweetheart, I've been doing this twenty-two years, alright? Once you've seen an eight-month-old microwaved to death... everything else is just old hat.

Alternate versions
There is a heavily edited version on YouTube which removes the graphic violence and gore, as well as the nudity.

Better than expected

I didn't hold out much hope for this movie. Was expecting the usual bad acting and shoddy plot. However I was mildly surprised. If you like gore, a little bit of nudity and a killer clown that kind off pulls of crazy without saying a word then this could be for you. Don't expect a Spielberg plot though.

Better than the wonky cam, let's run through the woods movies.
