3.0 out of 5 stars I ENJOYED, July 21, 2008
This review is from: Final Draft (DVD)
THIS IS A VERY SHARP AND INTERESTING FILM. THIS IS ABOUT A YOUNG WRITER PAUL TWIST PLAYED BY JAMES VAN DER BEEK. HE HAS TO WRITE A HORROR MOVIE IN 18 DAYS. HE LOCKS HIMSELF IN HIS LOFT AND BEGINS. THE HORROR IS HE IS HAUNTED BY HIS PAST. A DARK CLOWN, A MENACE A NIGHTMARE FROM HIS CHILDHOOD. HIS EX- WIFE, HIS BROTHER AND HIS OWN DARK DEEP SECRETS.

I THINK WHAT STANDS OUT IN THIS MOVIE IS THE ACTING AND THE WONDERFUL MIND TRIP OF A PLOT. YOU SEE THE REALITY OF MAN TURN UPSIDE DOWN AND TWIST INTO A WORLD THAT HE SEEMS TO IMAGINE YET CAN NOT CONTROL.
AS HE WRITES HE SEES THE PEOPLE IN HIS LIFE WHO HAVE CAUSED HIM PROBLEMS THERE WITH HIM IN THE LOFT. HIS MIND STARTS TO UNRAVEL , HIS THOUGHTS BECOME CLOUDED BY IMAGES OF VIOLENCE AND INSANITY.

I WAS VERY WELL PLEASED WITH THIS MOVIE IT WORKED IN SO MANY WAYS. I LOVE THE ONE ACT FEEL TO THE MOVIE. THE END WHEN HE IS LOCKED INSIDE THE LOFT WORKS THE MOVIE WITH BEAUTY AND A TWISTED SENSE OF HORROR WHICH IS INSANITY ITSELF.

THE STORY BECOMES APART OF HIM AS HE ACTS OUT THE HORROR THAT HIS MIND HAS CREATED. THE DEPRESSION OF HIS LIFE, THE FEEL OF FAILURE BECAUSE OF WRITERS BLOCK. THIS MOVIE IS NOT ABOUT GORE OR MASSIVE BLOOD, IT'S THE MIND AND THE AFFECTS OF HOW FAR THE INNER THOUGHTS CAN BECOME REALITY, HOW EACH ONE IS MIXED INTO THE PUDDLE OF DARKNESS AND HOW THAT DARKNESS CAN TAKE OVER.

I REALLY SEE NO FAULTS WITH THIS MOVIE ACCEPT SOME SLOW SPOTS AT TIMES BUT THE FILM COMES TOGETHER IN THE END AS A WELL PLAYED OUT ONE ACT WITH MORE TO IT. IT SHOCKS ME FROM ALL THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS I HAVE READ ABOUT THIS AND I WONDER WHY PEOPLE WHERE SO NEGATIVE I THOUGHT THE MOVIE CAPTURED INSANITY TO THE POINT AND MADE THE VIEWER TAKE THAT TRIP ALSO.

3.0 out of 5 stars I'm not sure, September 30, 2007
This review is from: Final Draft (DVD)
This is without a doubt the weirdest movie i've ever seen. When i first picked it up and looked at the cover i automatically thought (evil looking clownusually equals good horror movie) But this is kinda the opposite. I'm not saying this is a bad movie, just very hard to write about as it's so strange. A writer locks himself in his appartment to write a story about "Punchy the Clown" ( on the cover) A clown who he saw kill himself at a circus by accidently burning himself to death. From then on he begins to lose his mind. He starts talking to pictures of people he used to know and then he begins to see them as if they were really there. The people include. His ex wife, a sexy callender girl, a high school bully, and a former friend who stabbed him in the back when his brother died. One by one he types on his computer the fate of each and has the clown do the killings. I don't want to give too much more away, nor can i say i recommend this movie or not. Just don't expect to understand it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Could have been better...perhaps they should have made the movie he was writing instead!, July 27, 2010
This review is from: Final Draft (DVD)
James Van Der Beek - best known as the titular character on 'Dawson's Creek' - grows a beard to show us he's all grown up in this psychological thriller. Van Der Beek is very good, but the film isn't. Van Der Beek is a writer who tells his actor friend he has an idea for a horror film about a dead clown taking revenge on the children who laughed at him when he accidentally immolated himself at the circus. His friend gets him an appointment to subit his script to his agent and gives him a deadline as to when it has to be done. So he locks himself away in a loft and sets about writing while being haunted by some not-so-traumatic events of the past (which aren't very well-explained).

Two big problems - one is that the actor character is far more interesting than Van Der Beek's character (at times I wished the movie would shift gears and make the movie about the edgy, self-absorbed actor instead of the needy, bland writer). The other problem is the story he's writing about the killer clown is a far better story than the main story. I would have rather seen THAT movie!

It starts off good, but after too much time goes by with nothing happening it becomes tough to keep caring or even stay awake.
