Shudder Day: Clown in a Cornfield (2025)

 A Film that was recommended by people on FB.
It is by a Director of a Film I liked.

Let's tackle our coulrophobia and kalampokiphobia in one fell swoop!

Welcome to the Town of Kettle Springs.

They love Corn and Clowns.
Our Heroine is a new Girl with her Doctor Dad moving into Town a la Arachnophobia.

She makes friends with the 'cool kids' that have turned the Town's Mascot (above) into a Horror Character via YouTube Short Films.
They make enemies of the main Adults in Town (like the Sheriff, their Teacher and a Shopkeeper) along the way.

While filming a video, she spots a masked clown in the background...
In spite of what her Dad says, she goes to a Party by the Cornfield.

However, they get company in the form of Frendo the Clown...and more!
It all leads to a reveal- which I won't SPOIL- about who is doing the killing and why.

In lieu of an actual Shot of the reveal, I'll give the next best thing.

To find out how it plays out, stream it now.
A fun Film, as long as you let it build up properly.

For better or worse, this is very much in the mold of what Modern Slasher Films are.  
If you're a fan, that's great.
If you're not, just be patient.

The Film builds up nicely to a climax involving the Clown and our Heroes.
They are mostly a likable bunch.

As always, the big selling point here is the gore and the creativity involved.  It delivers.

This one doesn't exactly break any new ground, but stomps it quite nicely.
Will posting this picture help my engagement by including Art?

A fun Film that is very much in the mold of what Modern Slasher Films are.  For better or worse, it does that exactly how you'd expect (and also well).
