User Reviews

Very interesting underground flick.

Killer clowns taking over the world? Not quite. Just Frank Carroll's world. For twenty years He's lived with the guilt of doing nothing while his father, Jingles, was gunned down by two killer clowns. True, he was only nine at the time, but maybe he could have thrown dirt in their eyes, anything to stop them, if only he wasn't so afraid. Now, twenty years later, Frank will settle the score.
