Clown dolls downfall comes from the acting which was pretty bad from several of the actors present, because other than that its pretty decent for what this film is. Lane is going to be a seragate mother for her brother and his wife. Her mother takes her to a charity shop to get some bits for her house as she will only be there a little while. But she spots something she likes. A very creepy clown doll that is the same size as a person and she gives her 50 quid for the thing. Im sorry but its not worth it. However whoever actually made this doll did a good job. Its very creepy and unsettling and is exactly the job it intends to do. Its a little laughable when it walks to kill people but it does add to it. Sadly there is a scene at the beginning with him attacking two people but its not expanded upon who they were or why the doll was there. Still overall clown doll is a creepy if not a little cheesy horror.
Kept distracted as the protagonist's mother buys her an old fashion phone but it doesn't have the cord attached to the handle and drove my friend and I a wee mad that the set person didn't know how phones were designed ...
In the first few minutes of the movie we see a clown doll kill a bunch of humans who work very hard to keep their back turned to him and ignore him, despite already seemingly knowing he is a killer doll. This continues through out the movie right up until the end, when the killer doll is walking towards someone and the protagonist merely states "move, you have to trust me, move". It is about as bad as a parody. As far as the rest of the film goes, its lackluster all around. Mediocre acting, painful plot, weak effects, un interesting kills.
...not completely unwatchable either. Its got a "cheap" feel to it. Poorly written script (like why in the hell would she buy the doll in the first place?). The acting feels forced and wooden. None of the characters have any depth and have not been well thought out. The subplot of her being pregnant with her step brothers child is lame. Worse, the clown is just not scary. Its clearly a man dressed in a clown suit pretending to be a doll. It's stupid. I made it all the way through and there were a coupe of decent practical effects but overall this is poorly done. Look elsewhere for clown scares.
This movie is available now just fyi. Another very good film about a Killer Klown. The story is excellent and directing is solid. Definitely worth watching.
