HEY EVERBODY ITS ME, (4) and today we review - my 6th year birthday party , the movie !!!! -

so here we have a 2019 killer clown release ... no not from space ..sorry .. this ones from ohio ? ... milwakee ? I dont know someplace with some grassy fields and abandoned towns / dirt roads .....now in the midsts of recent killer clown movies like "terrifier" and "circus of the dead" etc ..... its expected to see a upswing if the genre of clown flicks .... well i guess its not REALLY likes its gone away to begin with lol.... killer clown flicks have been around for a while now .... and in fact i just learned that THIS is a sequel ??? Ill be danged YUP sure is ... SO that means ill have to go watch the first one now ......

WELL just knowing this one for what it is and not seeing the other one ....

the acting ......hits and misses .....the cop lady ...wow ..... wow ....no ... im thinking she was the directors mom ....girlfriend .... something becuase no offence but jesus christ my morning cereal box acts better when im pouring a bowl of cap'n crunch .... AND she literally hands a (nurf) gun to a civilian to stay trained on a baddy ? ..lol... like ...your a terrible cop lady .... your going to be one of those youtube videos of why everyone says cops are bad ....lol.... the clown guy ...okay ...he has his good moments .... his design , personally i think might have been a bit over played , i mean the human face apron was covered up and you couldnt even see it really .....so what was the point ? ...seems a bit try hard then discarded .....a much simpler REALLY grimy clown suit would have been perfect ....nothing to clowny BUT something almost homemade looking .... but hey thats my opinion ....

very basic character development in the story line ...thats fine .... no one cares about the throwaways LOL .....

lighting was alright ..... the technical stuff was "okay" except the sound ....ugh ... as per usual sadly the indies DIE because of bad sound ...and when you have a scream that clips in the red ....it kills it .... the distortion zone (cue the bad 80's music).... but trust me i DO understand how hard it can be BUT ALSO the audio at times sounded like you were recording it INSIDE OF MY CEREAL BOX !!!!!!!!! I open it up .....start digging for my cap'n crunch space man decoder ring .....and next thing i know im getting yelled at by a D. P. to "shhhhhh quiet on set" ?????? My bad bro ......

oh and MAYBE stop walking straight down the trapped hallway if you know its trapped ...just sayin ....

so this one ... imma give it a 4/10 solely because its nothing really NEW .... and doesnt really throw anything out there special .... its a decent watch for lovers of the killer clown genre and does have its moments ....but if your not down wit tha clowns ...then you probably will pass.

'Cleavers: Killer Clowns' is a Welsh production, with the cast putting on decent American accents. Director MJ Dixon's cast also includes a couple of names often associated with fellow countryman Andrew Jones's prolific North Bank Entertainment. The cinematography, either coincidentally or by design, reminds me of the style used on an early Jones' project, 2014's 'Theatre of Fear'. Lots of tight close-us and a sickly colour palette don't just obscure the limits of a low budget, but also give the film a feel all of its own, a claustrophobic atmosphere which is good for horror.

Dixon's writing isn't quite as successful, with some fairly repetitive dialogue. The storyline meanders a little too - but on the whole, I enjoyed this.

There seem to have been a lot of films recently similar to 'Killer Clowns'; names like Jones, Louisa Warren and MJ Dixon can be found behind the growing list, and this is one of the better ones. Of course, it won't impress those who are eager for fast-moving CGI and a few more bangs and whistles, but I've seen a lot worse.

Slow moving it may be, but it's competently made and has a certain queasy atmosphere which is pretty unnerving at times. 7 out of 10.

The end of my night last night led me to discover that there was ANOTHER Cleaver movie. Its not quite the same as the first one, its less colors and more of a gritty style. It feel a lot like Leatherface movies.

The characters in this one were more interesting I think, and they were all very broken and devastating characters. The clown looks better this time and the little clown girl is REALLY creepy.

I loved it. More of these please.
