I don't think I have watched a worse piece of crap masquerading as a scary movie. The acting was rubbish, the clown was about as scary as Pinocchio and the story was just ridiculous. Love revenge? You've got to be kidding me!!
... View MoreThis movie is atrocious beyond comprehension. As a fan of the sillier side of horror, I was actually really looking forward to watching this movie. I wish I had read up on some reviews before I wasted £3.50 on this awful film. From the cover, Killyjoy looks like a terrifying clown who could easily create bloodshed amongst the protagonists...but this movie is anything but scary, or funny. With laughable dialogue, bad acting, horrible special effects and a stupid plot line; this movie takes the cake. The only thing even remotely frightening about this movie is that it was even allowed to be made in the first place. It looks like it was created by a group of teenagers using Windows Movie Maker. Honestly, I would not recommend this movie to anyone whatsoever. Spend your money on better clown movies. Killer Klowns From Outer Space is the perfect example of what a silly, scary horror should be and Killjoy is anything but.
... View MoreOh, the amount of times I passed this film by in Poundland, figuring that a quid was waaay too much to spend on what was bound to be virtually unwatchable garbage. Well, I finally bagged a copy of the film for a mere 10p, and let me tell you, it was worth every penny (truth be told, I would have paid double that had I realised it wasn't quite as atrocious as I had at first believed).A very cheap and cheerful supernatural urban slasher with an entirely non-white cast (meaning that the black guy most definitely dies first!), the film stars Ángel Vargas as Killjoy, an evil wisecracking clown with very silly hair brought to life by occult-practising teenager Michael (Jamal Grimes) to wreak vengeance on the thugs who have been making his life a misery.Incredibly corny with a logic-free script, crappy sets, lousy special effects, weak performances, and virtually no gore, Killjoy is bound to disappoint anyone looking for a genuinely experience, whereas fans of hokey low-budget nonsense might just find that the trashy nature of the flick (which includes some gratuitous female nudity for good measure) makes for just about passable entertainment.
... View MoreFor f*ck's sake! This was torture.Some girl called Jaka or something is going out with Lorenzo, a local gang-banger/rapper who hangs around with T-Bone and Baby boy, who are a pair of stereotypical ghetto tw*ts. Jaka also has a stalker named Michael whom we're supposed to feel sympathy with, but he really does come across as some sort of stalker. Naturally, Lorenzo don't like Michael hanging around with Jaka, so he ends up giving him a kicking, which leads Michael to conjure some annoying bastard called Killjoy into the world to solve all his problems. The thing is, Killjoy is one of the most annoying horror monsters ever. Imagine Tim Curry's IT filtered through Michael Jackson's corpse via Chris Rock. Killjoy is total sh*t. Me, I am utterly, utterly terrified of clowns without a word of a lie, but I was not scared by Killjoy in the slightest. He just looks like a tw*t in heavy makeup. Anyway - Michael gets shot dead by accident which unleashes Killjoy (one year later, for some reason, who then goes on to lure people into his ice cream truck and kill them in a rather non-gory way. He kills all the gangstas and then concentrate on Jaka and her mates.This film is truly crap. After the initial establishing of characters and what not, it takes twenty minutes to get to the first kill, and it is all done in the most bloodless manner. Add to this the endless stalk and slash of the last half hour, and the truly sh*t ending, and you have a goreless, tame attempt to create a Freddy for the 'urban' culture, but all this does is make urban culture seem cheesy and hackneyed. Truly abysmal. The ending made things worse. It took me four nights to watch this crap, as I kept turning it off to do something more exciting. Take this as a warning - do not watch this film. It's truly crap.In the struggle of Man vs Film I would say man won. I didn't want to kill myself during this film but I would say that you would truly suffer if you sat through this one. It has very few redeeming qualities. And it spawned a sequel!
