How sad is this?

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

OMG This is one of the funniest short movies EVER. I first saw it on IFC's Short Film Colllection a few years back, and I fell in love with it. My sister and I even taped it and we still say quotes from Das Clown like "Then A gust of wind.......". It hasn't been on recently so if anyone knows when it's going to be on leave a message on this website. Anyway It's about a toy maker who has an evil clown doll who kills him, and the policeman,but there's a big surprise at the end ( you're going to be spending the entire 8 minutes wondering. LOL. Every time I think of this movie I laugh inside so yeah it's funny, and ridiculous, and AMAZING AT LIFE.

I really enjoyed this movie. It is really well done. The way they use the slide show and narration is ingenious. It starts out like a children's story and then goes into a horror film, and then ends as a romance. Also I enjoyed the dark humor, I find myself laughing each time I watch it. It also is cool that John Popper (Blues Traveler) is the narrator. I would recommend you see this movie. Just do a search for it, you won't regret it.

This slide-show presentation contains no movements or dialogue but there is a super plenty amount of blood. It contains a surprise ending that may take away from the believability of the show, but I am told that all of the facts within it are true. This twenty minute short was able to do what the Puppet Master movies couldn't do with nineteen full feature films. The special effects of this movie are really extra good when you stop and consider how none of it has any motion. It is easy to watch to because it beeps when the slide is supposed to be changed, which is something what was quite useful to me. I will give it several stars (at this point I am undecided as to how many I will give)

So I'm watching IFC's Short Film Collection and this comes on.It starts out like a cutesy kid movie about this sweet old man that owns an antique show and his beloved clown. Then the clown comes to life and starts killing people, what is THAT about? Despite the completely bizarre story, it was nevertheless an incredibly intriguing short film. The slide show style was something I'd never seen before and it really made for a different experience since there was really no MOVEMENT on screen, only stills. The dialogue-free narration was also interesting and made for a 'book-like' feeling to the movie, like a story being read to you. However, due to the graphic nature of the plot I would not recommend it for the faint of heart, only die hard indie fans.
