Still not sure, as this was a documentary, whether it's real or fake. Either way, I had searched for a horror film and it's not that. Maybe for a 10 year old. If it's a true life documentary then why not just show it on tv? I persisted, expecting a twist, an actual horror, but no, nothing. DO NOT WATCH IT!! Watch HAUNT instead.

This is one of the extremely rare cases where I turned a movie off. It was such an interesting idea, and they completely squandered it. There's no sense of order, you could recut the majority of this movie and it would not make a difference, if it weren't for a twist that rendered the first half of the doc a waste of time. This is the cinematic equivalent to reading the comments on YouTube video called "scary 3:00 AM challenge". It is largely just kids yapping into cellphone cameras about spooky clowns. They even often fail to give an opinion. It fails at exploring its topic with any kind of depth and comes across as extremely lazy. Let me save you 78 minutes. See that guy on the poster? Parents can hire him to scare misbehaving children. You learn nothing more by watching this film.

What started off as YouTube video of a clown sliding out from underneath a little girls bed in 2015 turned an unknown man into a viral fascination across Florida. Wrinkles the Clown is based on an unnamed man who dresses up as a horrifying looking clown and pimps himself out to parents to scare their misbehaving children. If that sentence doesn't sound terrifying enough, then all you need do is to have one look at this guy you'll instantly understand what nightmares are made of. The documentary goes around to the people across Florida, and we hear their personal opinions and encounters with Wrinkles. The crew interview the man behind the clown makeup, but keep his face out of every camera frame to withhold his identity and build mystery. He goes on to explain how Wrinkles became a character and the responses he has received from the community. Most interviews are focused on the younger children who either share a strong hatred toward Wrinkles or surprisingly idolise the clown. Some kids even go to the lengths of wanting to be just like Wrinkles. A role model if you dare to label. The documentary doesn't really reveal too much and honestly left me questioning if I learnt anything from Wrinkles besides him being an old man living every day like it's Halloween and scaring young children to make a quick buck. A very interesting choice that may be linked to the clown sightings back in 2016 where people disguised themselves as clowns around schools, side of the road and nearby forests, and would scare anybody who crossed their path. The idea of Wrinkles the Clown as a character and his objective is interesting, but I feel as though it would've been better off as a small Netflix series that dug deeper into the life and secrets of this man and his stories. I'm intrigued by this mysterious story as I felt there could've been more to share, but on the other hand I wouldn't lose any sleep if I never heard of this character again.

This was such a waste of time and money. Not only were the interviews complete crap, there's some in appropriate material as well. You basically just watch people talk about this clown and then watch some old guy sweating and eating food. Do not watch this.

I hadn't had a chance to watch this movie until recently when I actually had a day off from work and other personal obligations. Honestly, I should've just worked that evening. This is BY FAR the worst documentary I've ever seen. The topic itself obviously was enough to get me interested in watching, but that's about it. The overall flow was awful... and focus was primarily on random people who have either come across Wrinkles or who have researched him themselves.. either way, none of the children nor adults featured say anything illuminating or interesting at any point. Just crap.

After excitement about an actual horror documentary about an actual fear of mine, after forcing myself to watch waiting for a scary moment, I was left an hour and a half later wondering what the point of the whole movie was.

...and the south just proved its intelligence level once again.

Not the best documentary but worth checking out. Had some good horror moments and if your like everyone else and hates clowns you will be creeped out.

Is this documentary about "Wrinkles the Clown" as a person? Sorta. Is it about the clown hysteria from a few years ago, and how people reacted to it? It could've been with more focus. Is it about the behind the scenes of making modern day folklore? Again, it could've been with more focus. This documentary, as a concept, could've been incredibly interesting if it decided what it wanted to be. Instead it meanders on "clowns are scary" for a good portion of it's runtime. It's shot well, but with odd (and occasionally bad) editing & pacing. If 30-50 minutes were cut from this it would be a much more solid piece (but if they did that it wouldn't be considered "featured length" anymore.) Ultimately, this probably would've been better as an episode of a mini-series about some related theme (modern day/online horror and how people react to it, etc.)
