S.I.C.K. (2003)

Serial Insane Clown Killer, or S.I.C.K. for short is about a small group of friends who pick up a hitchhiker and are soon being hunted down by a killer cannibalistic clown. To be honest I didn't have a whole lot of hope going into this movie, but I found it to be decent with some redemable qualities. While it did seem to be a cross between It and Texas Chainsaw Massacre, it did have some originality. I really dug the camera angles and characters in general. They had a nice 'real' quality to them. The gore was moderate, but nothing too heavy. Go ahead and check it out. 3.5 out of 5.

Characters:

• Brandon: Seemingly nice fellow who invites his crush on a weekend camping trip with his friends. Soon a killer clown shows up and it all goes straight to hell from there.
• Tracey: Co-worker of Brandon's who goes on the camping trip with him on there first date. It goes from bad to worse, but then better... but soon goes bad again. Assumed eaten, and not in the good way.
• Denise: A hitchhicker the group picks up who is trying to escape a psycho truck driver. I mean, come on, you're asking for trouble right there!
• Mark: Brandon's friend from college. The kind of guy who has sex with another woman while searching the woods for his missing wife. Axe to the back.
• Susan: Mark's wife who gets abducted and tied to a tree. Eventually gets decapitated with an axe.
• David: Brandon's pushy cross-dressing boss. Presumed eaten.
