Undead Clowns

We feel it each year when the leaves turn brown,
The taste of pure fear when the scourge comes down,
From a carnival curse that we can't reverse,
Like a Gypsy's kiss but a whole lot worse.

See, a Circus came here and we treated 'em bad,
We ran 'em outta town and that made 'em real mad...

Look out,
Undead clowns! - All over this town,
Undead clowns! - See 'em prowling all round,

...Coming from the cemetary,
Climbing out the ground!
With their evil red noses and their demon's eyes,
Taking people down with their killer cream pies.


Freaky-ass make-up on a weird white face,
Spreading their havoc all over this place,
They show no mercy and they won't relent,
Bringing hell to those that they now torment.

Can't stake 'em in the heart, can't stab 'em in the guts,
Their only weak spot is to kick 'em in the nuts.

Look out,
Undead clowns! - They don't make no sound,
Undead clowns! - They can never be found,

...Until they're ready to attack,
Now there's more inbound!
Throwing goofy glitter bombs and exploding ci-gars,
Running people down in their funny little cars.

Gimme no 'if's man,
Gimme no 'but's,
When you got one coming at'cha,
Gotta kick 'em in the nuts.

Lol this can be made into a horror movie :) Many people have fears about clowns, I always wonder if this is because they seen some movies or is that something deeper?

Thanks TeeGee.

Ah yes, chickens and eggs, chickens and eggs.

My view is simply that clowns look very creepy. I don't have a
fear of them but certainly do not find them cute or in any way
entertaining. Unless they are being REALLY inappropriate...

I suppose you could make an historical argument based on the fact
that clowns can easily be dated to before any TV or movies (let alone
ones in which they are the subject for good or bad.)

However, then it gets interesting because "Coulrophobia" (the fear of clowns)
actually seems to have emerged late 1990's and people, including David Carlyon,
have agued that the phobia only energed in the 1960's with a blossoming
in the 1980's - Thanks in no small part to Stephen King.

Then again, Carlyon used to be a clown with Ringling Brothers back in the 1970's
so you could say he has skin in the game. Albeit creepy-ass painted white skin.

But they make good villians even if you did not start with a fear of them. I
just thought it would make a fun story based on a town treating the circus badly
and getting a curse that amounts to an annual "clownaggedon". Naturally, I'd
love to make that movie...

There was a gem of a low-budget horrror back in the late 1980's
- "Killer Klowns from Outer Space" -
Here a town was beset by blood sucking aliens who just happened to look like
circus clowns. Upshot, nobody took them seriously until it was too late. Great
cinema it is not but if you remember those nights back in the day when you had
a few friends over, plenty of booze, some pizza and a pot-luck horror on VHS
from the local video rental.... Just priceless.

(Oh, and a killer theme tune by the Dickies too!)

I grew up as a kid in the 70ies, I have no fear of cheap B or C movies :D . There was this cinema where a movie would continuously 24 hours a day, you would simply enter, and start watching from where ever it was, until you got back to where you started. Funny thing is, it never bothered me as a kid, nowadays it would drive me crazy :D
