The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

This film is broken on every level, the acting is horrible and cringe inducing, the visual effects look like a 2006 YouTube video, the story is nonsensical and, the whole movie works more as a comedy than a horror movie. (Bad pun incoming) This movie killed any and all joy I had before watching it.

I'm truly shocked that some folks actually liked this movie. I can't think of one thing in it that could possibly be considered good. The acting is horrible, the dialogue is cringe inducing, the story....did a six year old write it?You'd hope that at least the movie would make up for it's lack of everything else by making the monster...Killjoy...interesting. Maybe a few gory murders or something. Nope. Even the death scenes are lame. You won't root for the characters or the killers, you'll just wish you hadn't watched this terrible movie. Amazingly this movie had a sequel. I really don't get it...did this movie actually turn a profit? (Maybe it did, as the budget looks like it was around 200 bucks.) It reminds me of Patton Oswalts rant on making a movie.

one of the worst movies i have ever seen. There are literally no redeeming qualities to these movies. I watched the first and was bored as hell. I understand what full moon pictures is all about and can find something interesting in some of their movies. I thought gingerdead man was hilarious and killjoy follows in the same vein except that it is not funny at all. Terrible production, absolutely brutal acting and the kill scenes arnt even good. I think the first involves a guy turning to ash from ugly cg. I didn't like the first at all and fast forwarded through the second just to see if it was basically the same garbage and it does appear that way. I will be pawning these movies off.

i really really liked this film. which was a big surprise judging by the trailer i saw and a lot of the negative comments here on IMDb. this movie has to be commended for it's revamping of the evil clown genre in a new age blaxploitation style of cinematic vignettes.the make up team for killjoy deserve a lot of credit, i haven't seen a clown that menacing since the TV adaptation of Steven King's IT! the same show of respect goes to the colour co-ordination in the scenery, backgrounds and character clothing.sure it's not a Hollywood cgi gore-fest, but it has everything the average horror fan needs: black comedy, cartoon like protagonists, a charming villain, creative story lines with just enough predictability to make the viewing experience worthwhile and bringing the psychological aspect of fear into play rather than relying on low budget techniques for scare tactics. and if you really wanna get critical, yes there were copyright free sounds used throughout the picture such as the infamous "open and closing jail door slam" or the "cartoon network like punch and kick combos" but for me the end result is still solid. i definitely felt empathy towards Michael, the lonely outcast that bares the brunt of bullies and solitude and struggles to find love in the one person who could possibly help get his life in a better situation.for the sceptics.....you like krusty the clown from the simpsons? did you like that one Halloween episode where he becomes an evil doll? have you seen the first hellraiser film by Clive barker? can average acting ability be enhanced in a teenage slasher flick during the year 2000? if you can answer yes to at least 3 out of those 4 questions, i recommend you watch this film - or at least give it a test drive for the first 20 minutes...then you can start giving a thumbs down to reviewer's comments and down rating a film to under 2 stars!!10 outa 10, only heard about it from various youtube videos, i've already downloaded the 2 sequels (which i'm now definitely interested in finding time to watch!!)
