Writer-director Colin Krawchuk saddles us with a poorly written, lead-footed plot delivered in stodgy lumps between killings.

While it attempts to explore a relationship that strengthens amid panic, The Jester is a superfluous record of a figure who, far from frightening, is a lackluster copy of infinitely superior characters of the genre. [Full review in Spanish]

This American horror film has arrived in Britain too late for Halloween this year, and I’m not sure its bogeyman will be well enough remembered to inspire many costumes next October.

Like Art the Clown, the Jester is a great, simple concoction that is creepy enough to enter the imagination of fans.

With nearly a decade of shorts in the book, The Jester finally gets a showcase. The result is a mixed bag. It showcases Krawchuk’s talent as a visual storyteller but stumbles with disconnected kills.

The jester was an interesting character with creative deaths. After that the acting was terrible and the ending was poorly done.

Giving this movie even half a star is generous. Terrible execution of the plot, horrendous acting, and a complete waste of my time.

42 minutes into the movie and only three people have died whoch is super lame for a slasher. It’s such a bad Terrifier rip off. The actors are soooo bad but you can’t even dog on them too much cause the writing is some of the worst I’ve ever seen in my life. The only good thing about this movie is that it’s so bad that you just laugh your ass off watching it. EVEN THEN there’s so much emptiness in the writing and directing that sometimes you sit and watch people talk about stupid stuff that doesn’t matter. ITS. SO. BORING. The beginning of the movie was my favorite part cause that is when you can turn it off without wasting too much of your time.
