Grindstone Acquires Tim Curry Horror Comedy ‘Gingerclown’
Grindstone has acquired North American rights to Hungary’s first 3D movie (in English), Gingerclown, the horror comedy with animatronic monsters.
From director Balázs Hatvani, “1983: A group of high school students are having a great time near Hollywood Hills at the weekend when they bump into the Loser from their school, Sam, who’s just on his way home.
Sam would do anything in order to get Jenny’s attention, one of prettiest girls in school. Unfortunately she’s also the girlfriend of the school’s bully, Biff, the quarterback of the football team.
Biff and his buddies are keen to take Sam to the old abandoned amusement park to make him prove his courage as part of their initiation ceremony. They involve Jenny in their cruel game as the grand prize of the competition. Sam accepts the challenge but the girl wouldn’t let him go in by himself, she follows him into the amusement park and a night they’ll never forget.
Because in the old park, hidden in the darkness are frightening and somewhat eccentric monsters, who love to torture innocent human beings while intensively annoying each other.”
Tim Curry (Rocky Horror Picture Show) voices “Gingerclown,” while Brad Dourif (Child’s Play) voices “Worm Creature,” Lance Henriksen (Aliens) as “Braineater,” Michael Winslow (Police Academy) as “Stomachcrumble,” and Sean Young (Blade Runner) as “Nelly the Spiderwoman.”
The wait for this stylish horror comedy isn’t very long as it will hit cinemas this fall in 3D.

When best friends Glen (Stephen Dorff) and Terry (Louis Tripp) stumble across a mysterious crystalline rock in Glen’s backyard, they quickly dig up the newly sodden lawn searching for more precious stones. Instead, they unearth The Gate — an underground chamber of terrifying demonic evil. The teenagers soon understand what evil they’ve released as they are overcome with an assortment of horrific experiences. With fiendish followers invading suburbia, it’s now up to the kids to discover the secret that can lock The Gate forever . . . if it’s not too late.
If you’ve never seen The Gate, it’s now streaming on Prime Video and Tubi.
