CLOWN Trailer: An Unwitting Father Experiences a Terrifying Transformation

Before he becomes a blockbuster-level filmmaker with Spider-Man: Homecoming, director Jon Watts tackled a small-scale horror film called Clown. He finished the movie years ago, but it's been stuck on a shelf for a long time, and now The Weinstein Company is giving it a release this summer. It looks like a twisted version of the family-friendly Christmas movie The Santa Clause: a father rocks a clown costume to celebrate his kid's birthday, but the costume won't come off and he slowly realizes it's cursed and altering his personality in terrifying ways. Eli Roth is producing, and I imagine genre fans have been curious about this one for long enough to want to check it out when it comes to theaters next month.

CLOWN is a story of a loving father who dons a clown outfit and makeup to perform at his son’s sixth birthday, only to later discover that the costume – red nose and wig included– will not come off and his own personality changes in a horrific fashion. To break the curse of the evil outfit, the father must make grim choices with his own family facing danger.

Clown (finally) arrives on June 17, 2016.
