6/10
Clowntergeist is either the best or the most god-awful worst title I’ve ever heard for a horror film. Nevertheless, it proves the old adage – you can’t judge a film by its title. Go to Full Review Patrick King Cultured Vultures Oct 10, 2019
The acting is okay. The interactions between Emma and her best friend Heather (Monica Baker) aren't totally cringe-worthy and occasionally, sometimes accidentally, charming. Go to Full Review Larry Jameson Film Threat Oct 13, 2017

If your festering jester fetish just cannot be denied, skip this bargain-basement Bozo and Google "Pogo the Clown" instead. Go to Full Review Jonathan Edwards Starburst Sep 13, 2017

With not much in the form of scares, gore or plot, one of its biggest sins is being imaginatively dull. Go to Full Review Jeffrey Lyles Lyles' Movie Files Sep 11, 2017

Unlike It, Clowntergeist probably won't force viewers to leave a nightlight on. Go to Full Review Mike McGranaghan Aisle Seat Sep 10, 2017

It's not entirely successful, yet to dismiss it as mere schlock would be unfair. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Alondra B @RT20853586 Jun 28, 2025 The movie is really slow. I don’t really like the clown itself—it’s only mildly funny. The main actress made me feel totally frustrated; she kept playing the victim the whole time, ignoring her friends and only caring about herself. And don’t even get me started on the old man who turns out to be the villain in the end—that’s a weak excuse for the entire plot. In short, don’t waste your time.
