Directed by Rob Zombie
Driving through the Southwest on Halloween night, Charly (Sheri Moon Zombie) and her carny crew are attacked and brought to a factory where evil aristocrat Malcolm McDowell announces they’ll be hunted by a series of killer clowns, including the unstoppable Doom-Head (brilliant bad guy Richard Brake, aka the Night King on “Game of Thrones”). The deathmatch set-up has been a horror-fantasy staple from 1932's THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME to THE HUNGER GAMES, but in Rob Zombie’s blood-soaked hands, the subgenre naturally receives its most unrelentingly gruesome interpretation. Contains strong language, sexual scenes, violence and gore.
A tough band of carnies are forced to play a gruesome game of kill-or-be-killed on Halloween night.
Cast: Sheri Moon Zombie, Meg Foster, Richard Brake, Lew Temple, Malcolm McDowell

Maybe I’m biased but i love the charm of rob zombie movies and this did not disappoint I really enjoy this concept of like the hunger games turned horror and I don’t see it often and i think this executed it well it was fun it kept me engaged the ending is a bit of a let down but I still love this movie so give
acting not great, ending let down, over all a good watch.
Well just for the music that’s in this movie I’d give 10 skulls.very good
The super rich employ evil psychotic clowns to hunt our heroes down a la The Running Man (with 100x the gore). I knew what I was in for and enjoyed my time with it. Unfortunately i find the "slow talking, love the sound of my own voice, crusty "scary" clown make up to be overdone, very tiring and desperately wannabe edgy. I didn't let that ruin it for me though as there was plenty here to entertain.
As visceral as I expect from Rob Zombie, the characters are always fantastic and colourful, my only complaint is that it was predictable that Sheri's character wouldn't be killed, defused a lot of the tension for me.
