The story of a retired clown and his undying love for children
The story of a retired clown and his undying love for children
The compound is under construction. Gathering enough plywood, galvanized tin and used trailers takes time, not to mention stockpiling all the shotgun ammo, canned goods and bourbon.

Oh.
Ick.
Quite a pedigree, Red Buttons and Jodie Foster. How did I miss getting creeped out by this the first time around?
Are you kidding me? Putting aside the fact that I am totally skeeved out, I totally want to watch this!
I notice a nearly overwhelming backlash against clowns in the past few years.
I may have to drop out of clown college if this continues.
I know that chick, she gave me crabs.
They just couldn't kill his love for children? Did they try chemical castration?
Shouldn't that read "...undying love for children's blood"?
Or was he a molestor clown rather than one of those filled with a murdeous bloodlust?
I have so missed your evil clowns.
Maybe Red Button and John Hinkley could have some kind of sick clown-fight over Jodie Foster.
With a premise like that, I'm surprised there isn't Alexander fan-fic floating around somewhere.
kirby, indeed.
Johnny, I'm glad to oblige. Hey, Friday night was fun, huh?
Mob, I'm thinking molester clown, but they can turn ugly in a second.
Barbara, they don't have enough chemicals for a love that big.
Dr MVM, sorry about that. I heard they breed in those absurdly high-wasted pants.
Anandamide, don't stop believing. Believe in your dream.
Ten...it's mostly true.
Dale, I just uncovered the repressed memories of this movie in therapy. Maybe you could remember too?
Beckeye, what are you saying?
Also starring Cousin Oliver!
Aye Carumba! A candy-colored Clown from Hell!
creepyyyyyyyyyyyy
Some things sound twice as creepy when you use modern values or take them out of context...this was creepy back then.
I wonder if Jodie had all the prints destroyed and if this instead of "Taxi Driver" is what really fueled Hinckely (sp?)
That freaks me out.
Jeeebus, I can't believe I missed this party.
