Bowling Balls (2004 Video) User Reviews

Being a juggalo isn't necessary to enjoy this short film, but it helps.

Having fun is ICP's forte'. Weather recording albums, throwing concerts, or shooting videos, or films. This short film is no exception. "Bowling Balls" is the title of a song on their 2004 released album, "Hells Pit" which is the 2nd half of their sixth jokers card THE WRAITH.

"Bowling Balls" is about everyones favorite serial killer clowns collecting heads as a hobby. To heighten the experience, ICP put one of two DVD's in the CD, (the other being a performance from a gathering) being the short film "Bowling Balls". You can compare this to Michael Jacksons "Thriller". His big single from his album of the same name. The short film being basically a long music video.

This film was shot in HI-DEF 3-D. With the CD comes a pair of slip-on 3-D glasses so as you can see the blood splashing right in your lap. Or you can choose to view it in 2-D.

You can consider this film a comedy, and it certainly helps to have a dark sense of humor, or at least understand ICP's style of bloody humor. It runs about half an hour and it's really funny. Thats all I'm going to say. Do yourself a favor and watch this at least once.

If your not a juggalo i don't think you'll like this movie.

This movie isn't really THAT good. Its just a funny horror movie. Reminds me very much of Troma movies, the gore, the humor, the budget.

Insane Clown Posse (ViolentJ and Shaggy), the stars of this movie made a song called Bowling Balls. Its about the same thing as this movie, two guys that collect human heads. They also sing that song in the movie.

The movie starts with two girls driving on a road in the middle of no where when the suddenly hit something. They get out to have a look on what they hit but they cant find anything so they get back into there car. But the car wont start. Up pops Violent J! Hes looking real pimp and invites them to his hotel. And so it begins... *Juggalo Style!

If you liked Big Money Hustlas you'll love this!

*A Juggalo is an Insane Clown Posse fan.

Thriller... JUGGALO STYLE!

This was hands down the BEST video ICP has ever done.

As a fan of the Slasher/Horror movie genre, I thought it was funnier then *beep*! I don't think you HAVE to be a Juggalo or really even a fan of ICP to like this little mini movie.

This had all of the classic Horror stereotypes.

Cheesy, horrible acting! (but it fits and it's unbelievably funny!) The Ditsy Blond.

The Bitch.

The A-hole Jock/Stoner.

The Nerd.

The Big Breasted chick.

And of course the homicidal Killers, played by America's favorite band to hate... The Insane Clown Posse! Let's not forget the actual back drop as well and the over the top death sequences.

Speaking of the latter, I'd say my 2 favorite scenes were the very end with the BJ gone awry. And the the 1 girl who dies by having a sickle ACCIDENTALLY fall on her head.

But obviously the best performance in this was Shaggy! You could tell he probably preferred doing this more then he did Sugar Bear. Because he didn't really have any dialog to remember.

Plus the little spats, J and Shaggy's characters had were really funny.

I really hope Psychopathic Records does more stuff like this. Because this was really really funny!
