Item Name: Drive Thru; Studio: Lions Gate
Product Description
High schooler Mackenzie Carpenter thinks her biggest problem is dying of boredom in the bucolic wasteland of Orange County... until her classmates start dying of massive blood loss, and Horny The Clown, the mascot for local burger favorite HELLA-BURGER, begins madly stalking her with cryptic messages hidden in 70's kitsch toys. It isn't until Mac discovers her unbelievable connection to Horny and his victims that she realizes, if she's going to live to see 18, she must come face-to-face with the killer clown in the bloodiest week Blanca Carne, California, has ever known.

Ok what is with all the bad reviews for this movie? Does no one have a sense of humor anymore?
Mackenzie (Gossip Girl's Leighton Meester) finds herself to be one of the many targeted kills of Horny the clown. Since he only communicates with her through innocent childhood toys, its up to her to save his next possible victims- and ultimately herself.
This is not a serious horror movie. And its not MEANT to be a serious horror movie. That fact is made blatantly clear with the plot: A knife wielding clown? Named HORNY? But that doesn't take away from the overall fun of the movie!
If you liked the horror movies of yesteryear, this movie is a really good homage using plot devices from Nightmare on Elm Street, Carrie, IT, Chucky... plus there's some good comic relief sprinkled throughout the film as well. The acting is definitely NOT bad. The woman who played Mackenzie's mother made me cringe a few times, but besides that, I think they all did a pretty good job with what they were given!
So bottom line: If you're looking to watch a serious horror movie, I would stick to Stephen King. If you're into kitch and stupid/funny horror (like me), then you'll like this.

Drive Thru is neither a good nor a bad film, existing merely to entertain by its brainless and clichéd storyline and silly comedy aspects. Offering a decent-looking killer clown, but some uninspiring deaths, it's a movie that has few positives and many faults, but in the end if you're simply looking for a cheesy slasher entry to waste an hour-and-a-half on then you can do a lot worse than this.

If your into slashers, especialy sadistic clowns, this will not disappoint.
A mentaly challanged boy who was burned alive in a drive thrue resteraunt comes back for revenge against those that wronged him.
Full of Sadistic comedy, great killings and a wonderful plot full of revenge and judgment. I was suprised by the quality of the film compared to such films as Mr. Jingles this is a good step up.

Saw it once on late night TV, couldn't get it out of my head
A rather silly, very gruesome horror movie this is more of a fun ride that takes you by the perverbial balls and pulls you through the story of one crazy *** clown. Read more
