To prepare for Andy Muschietti’s new adaptation of Stephen King’s It, I watched Tommy Lee Wallace’s original two-part tv movie from 1990 this weekend. Like the characters in the movie, I didn’t recall how horrendous this relic from my past was. Hokey, obvious, derivative, horribly acted, incompetently directed, It is…
It—a Stephen King masterpiece that is all three a miniseries, extremely large book and recently-released film—isn’t just terrifying for those forced to encounter Pennywise crawling out of a storm drain. Turns out the real victims here are actual clowns, who are tired of their good (?) names being dragged through the…
Are you the sort of person who is keen on clowns? Would you even maybe—possibly—say that you’re down to clown? Well then, my buddy, do I have the real estate property for you: the Clown Motel.
In the trailer above, get your first taste of the upcoming film adaptation of Stephen King’s It, which floats into theaters Sept. 8. Directed by Andrés Muschietti (Mama), this second motion picture adaptation of King’s 1986 novel is expected to be rated R and split into two parts, according to an interview with…
Maybe because it’s close to Halloween, maybe because the world is spinning off its axis straight into hell, but creepy clowns have become the theme of Fall 2016. And I don’t just mean Donald Trump and his sons—ba-dum ching!
A clown named Judy has written an op-ed for CNN defending her career, and arguing that the “scary clowns” terrorizing our nation’s children are not, in fact, clowns at all.
As we’ve previously opined on this website, this scary clown hoax bullshit needs to stop. Stop dressing up like a clown and lurking around to scare people. Stop pretending you saw a scary clown and filing false police reports. And for the love of God, don’t ask the White House about these fake clowns. What? You…
Okay jokers, listen up. Maybe you think dressing as a psychotic clown seems like jolly good fun. Maybe you see it as some larger commentary on the macabre absurdity of human existence. Maybe you didn’t have to sleep with the lights on for an entire summer after watching Stephen King’s It at a slumber party. I don’t…
Scary clowns have been coming out of the woodwork in the last month, inspiring copycats, false alarms, and police warnings that dressing up like a clown to scare children is completely idiotic.
One of the worst things about fall, besides everything, is that it’s clown hoax season. Without fail, as soon as the leaves start to drop from the trees, terrible people all over this country start dressing up like circus demons in order to scare kids and go mega-viral. Or, in the case of two people in Georgia, they…
A person (or persons) dressed as a clown is reportedly posing a threat to the child residents of wooded towns in both North and South Carolina.
If your particular phobia is that of scary clowns (coulrophobia) then I urge you to back away from your computer or mobile phone and run, very quickly, the other way, because JESUS GOD: Madonna dressed up as a vintage British clown and riding around on a baby’s tricycle is marginally more terrifying than the guy who…
The verdict is in: Michael Derrick Hudson, you are a motherfucking clown.
What's going on with clowns these days? Roaming small towns in California, terrorizing people in France, missing entire mouths on American Horror Story? I don't know about you but I think the French town of Vendargues that has banned all clown costumes for the foreseeable future has the right idea.
If Twisty, American Horror Story's resident clown of creepiness and doom, hasn't given you enough of a reason to stay home this Halloween (although he will get you there, too. He's a clown), consider this chilling news: French police are warning citizens of violent attacks perpetrated by clowns with guns and knives.
If you have coulrophobia, or even an aversion to clowns, you may not want to read this. Because there are a lot of clowns here and they're all doing something strange in the town of Wasco, California: They're wandering around late at night, clown-style.
American Horror Story's writers and creators excel at exploiting our deepest pathologies and paranoias, so it was only a matter of time until they debuted that oh-so-ordinary childhood terror: the scary clown. And Lana del Rey!
Some complete and total jerkface is sneaking around a cemetery in New York dressed as a super creepy clown is hiding in Brooklyn's historic Green-Wood Cemetery, trying to "surprise" unsuspecting cemetery-goers.
Being a famous pop star must get boring sometimes. At least, that's the feeling you get after watching Katy Perry's video for "Birthday," which she's used as an opportunity to really pushed her acting skills to the brink by disguising herself as various birthday party entertainment professionals who end up ruining a…
Julia Louis-Dreyfus, a 53-year-old woman who is so hot and awesome that it almost seems unfair, stars in her very own photo spread in next month's issue of GQ wherein she fucks a clown.
