فيلم جيد!

But not as in "check out the movie" ... rather checkout, before it starts. All kidding aside (and as always no pun intended), I have seen worse movies. And for me a 3 is not the worst rating a movie can get. But even though we have Tobin Bell here (who always elevates the movie he is in - but also reminds the viewers that he has been in way better productions - namely the Saw franchise - which is the most famous one to date) ... the movie never really takes off. The beginning is kind of intriguing .. building a background story and making us wonder what is behind it all. But that curiosity will be gone quite fast. Replaced by our hoping something will happen that excites us. Action scenes are not too bad, but CGI is (money wise) not helping the cause of the movie either ... shame the poster did look way better than the movie turned out to be. Too much (or too little) clowning around ...

The clowns in this movie reminds me of the arab-palestinian occupiers on the jewish homeland of Israel. The clowns are Hamas, PLO and islamic jihad. The thousands years of jewish history is deleated by a murderous and evil force and thats excactly who these clown are! Its a really really B A D movie! It would be best if this movie instead become forgotten so the world dont have to see it. I cant understand how the actor from the Saw movies would accept this role. I guess he needed the cash. But to be honest, No role as bad as this one is worth taking. Especially in this extremely bad movie!

The last Randy Couture movie I watched called the Bell Keeper wasnt good either, but it was probably better than this one. This one drags hard with a monotonous muddled plot about some kind of tribe land dispute. Honestly, so little happened in the first 40 minutes, i was struggling to keep my eyes open and pay attention. You would think with Tobin Bell in here there would be something exploitive or interesting, but it just doesnt really ever amount to much, even in the last 40 minutes. The clown hotel itself is kind of an odd prop in and of itself but the haunted clown decorations were quite pedestrian. Nothing to see here.

Right, well stumbling upon this 2023 movie here in 2024, by random chance, and seeing that the movie had Tobin Bell on the front cover, of course I opted to sit down and watch it. Sure, I had never even heard about the movie prior to watching it, so I wasn't sure what I was in for. And I have to admit that the movie's title struck me as being very ridiculous. Yet, I still opted to check out what writers Christopher Malone, Alexander Nistratov and James Tamburino had to offer. And it proved to be a rather bland and somewhat dull script and storyline. There just wasn't really a whole lot of anything interesting going on throughout the course of the 84 minutes that the movie ran for. The pacing of the narrative was slow and monotonous. And not even Tobin Bell himself could do much to salvage the train wreck that is "Clown Motel". Aside from Tobin Bell, the movie has a couple of familiar faces with the likes of Richard Grieco and Randy Couture, neither of which I can claim that I am much of a fan of, so I wasn't particularly thrilled to see them on the screen. "Clown Motel" is a dull horror experience, and it is definitely not a movie that I would recommend you waste your time, money or effort on. Some of us suffered through the ordeal, so you don't have to; you're welcome. My rating of directors Asif Akbar and Lance Kawas's 2023 movie "Clown Motel" lands on a three out of ten stars. It was every bit as laughable as the title was.
