This is not the film from 1967 by John Korty, it is a cheesey 1994 B-horror/comedy movie about someone who is "Half Jester and Half Demon!" So beware if you think (like I did) that you made a lucky discovery of this film, because you didn't! Order at your own risk!

on my way flying home to germany my girlfriend told me to find a funny film for us to watch. The title said it all, and i was fooled..... this has to be the funniest,sickest and most intriguingly bizarre film ever made; the concepts involved are beyond all diseased imagining.everyone has seen films that their friends swore would have them clueless as to what happens next but this one is the daddyman. Christopher Lee is the only actor in the film I have ever seen before.( or since come to that) There is gut wrenching cruelty mixed with bedlam humour of a type particularly suited to the english psyche, encompassing what one strives to explain on holiday as "british humour", i.e dark and twisted enough to tickle our subliminal humour valve,but too dark and over the heads of johnny foreigner. to whit: if i had explain,you wouldn't understand. I mean,seriously, i had to watch it three or four times to understand it myself. you will never,ever find a film quite this mental anywhere,anywhen.

Okay, Let's start by saying Chris Lee ain't exactly fully featured here okay, so don't buy this for him being in it. HOWEVER, this film IS BRILLIANT, it's mix of comedy AND horror are pure genius, and no one should miss out on seeing it. The funnyman slogan is "He's cheeky and he's cruel", and that is SO right. Anyway, just buy the damn thing, you'll love it, it's hilariously funny, and rather rude!

This film is brilliant, as you can probably tell by the fact that it stars Christopher Lee himself, however don't expect a massive budget extravanganzar with this film, it's basically about a man who gambles a lot and he wins a house, a house which is haunted by an evil jester, the funnyman, The jester kills the man and his family and some visitors the man has around, the funnyman is extremely crude and extremely funny, using phrases "I'm off for a toss me!" , this film is $90, sure, but it's deffinately worth it, i'd recommend it to anyone.

I searched and searched and searched and finally found this DVD. What a huge disappointment. I didn't laugh not one time. It's not as though I was given ample time, this performance was only thirty minutes long in duration. I don't recommend this DVD to anyone.

i borrowed this of a friend at school about 3 years ago and i laughed the whole way through it.im not sure if its meant to be serious or not but i just think its great.buy it what are you waiting for!
