Featured reviews
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.
This has to be one of the top ten worse horror films. The whole story was just bad. My cousin gave this movie to me because he said he hated it. When I watched it, I see why. Worst gore-effects, the dumbest clown and most unscary clown in the horror genre. Ronald McDonald is scarier. Don't waste your time on this.
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.
Appropriate title and a great way to ruin a week. This really is very horrible and yet a sequel! Producers , Film 2000 fair enough but Full Moon!?! Why? The movie is written by star Carl Washington. Gary Schmoeller is line producer. At only 70 minutes long it is very hard to imagine just how bad this actually is. The villain clown is rubbish (no other word for it). Apparently he is (or was) a bullied lad who for no reason what so ever wants to kill his one true love from when he was alive. The cast are not too bad. They are mainly new actors and really get into their roles and the crass lines. Fans of this will hate this review but for an idea of how nasty this is lets use the 'script'. One guy talking to a local girl "You're c**t stinks anyway". Yes, thanks for that. Maybe he should be more careful where he puts his nose (oh and Full Moon their money!)
is it just me, when people all gang up on a flick saying "its the worst movie ever", the first thing you think is,"they havent even seen EVERY movie ever made....."
killer clown fights gang-bangers, plain and simple. if snoop dogg or master p put this out straight to video, more people would've seen it. definitely in the gangsta rap/ghetto exploitation genre.not for everybody.if you own ICP's "big money hustlas" movie, you'll probably like it, juggalo.
