I’ve Already Decided I Don’t Want To Play ‘Basement Crawl’
Hello, my name is Adam, and I have a fear of clowns.
Polish developer Bloober Team has unveiled their next game, a mysterious PS4 exclusive launch title called Basement Crawl. We don’t know really anything about it outside of the above picture of an intensely freaky clown and the strong possibility that this creepy little bastard may or may not be chasing my screaming ass through a basement. I’m going to go ahead and hand over all future coverage of this game to TJ from now on — I need to go turn on every light and start thinking happy thoughts.

Eli Roth’s ‘Clown’ Finds Parents, Shooting Underway
Peter Stormare (Hansel and Gretel Witch Hunters, Fargo) and Laura Allen (From Within, The Collective) will also star in the Eli Roth-produced Clown, THR adds this afternoon.
Produced by the Hostel and Cabin Fever director, and to be distributed via Dimension Films, production is underway in Ottawa.
The film co-stars Andy Powers, Christian DiStefano, Elizabeth Whitmere and Matthew Stefiuk.
Jon Watts is directing from a screenplay he co-wrote with Christopher D. Ford. It became an internet “thing” when a spoof trailer circulated back in 2011. In it, “A loving father dons a clown outfit, wig, bulbous nose and pancake makeup to entertain at his son’s sixth birthday after the clown-for-hire is a no-show. Unable to take off the clown garb, dad’s personality changes in horrific fashion. He and his family race to break the curse of the evil outfit before he undergoes a complete transformation into a homicidal killer with over-sized shoes.”
Clown is scheduled for release next year.

His completed starring feature Aftershock (which is soon having its world premiere at the fest) and his yet-to-be-filmed Clown.

These are two Eli Roth-produced genre films. Roth stars in ‘Aftershock’. I’ve heard that the minimum guarantee commitment is upwards of $2 million for each film, plus a guarantee of a wide theatrical release.”
In Aftershock, “In Chile, an American tourist’s vacation goes from good to great when he meets some beautiful women travellers. But when an earthquake ravages the underground nightclub they’re in, a fun night quickly turns to terror. Escaping to the surface is just the beginning as they face nightmarish chaos above ground. Starring Eli Roth and Selena Gomez.”
In Clown, “a loving father dons a clown outfit, wig, bulbous nose and pancake makeup to entertain at his son’s sixth birthday after the clown-for-hire is a no-show. Unable to take off the clown garb, dad’s personality changes in horrific fashion. He and his family race to break the curse of the evil outfit before he undergoes a complete transformation into a homicidal killer with over-sized shoes.”

Slipknot’s Corey Taylor And M. Shawn Crahan Shot In The Head?
Slipknot‘s Corey Taylor and M. Shawn Crahan have released a short film entitled Thy Shalt I to promote their film production company Living Breathing Films. The short film depicts Corey and Shawn being bound, their heads covered with potato sacks, and walking through a dead forest. Let me reiterate: A LOT of walking. As thrilled as I am that two obvious horror fanatics are putting themselves into the film/TV world, this is not a good start. The shots are overly long with no real creative angles as well as unnecessary rehashing of previous footage. For a 15-minute film, it could easily have been trimmed down by at least half. Check it out for yourself below.
Meet ‘Stitches’ the Undead Clown in First Ever Image

He falls victim to a fatal party mishahp at the hands of a group of particularly nasty children. Years later, the group of now teenagers attend a party at which Stitches is the uninvited guest of honor, returning to avenge his untimely death.” READ MORE

Can Slipknot Make Up Their Mind?
In a recent interview with Kerrang! magazine, Slipknot percussionist Shawn “Clown” Crahan stated that the band will be recording another album: “No one will push it, because it’s going to be a big one. It’ll be closer to ‘Iowa’, but it’ll be sadder and crazier. And really thought provoking, it could even be conceptual. We’re still taking some time to reflect on our brother [Paul Gray]. Everybody needs to be collecting thoughts so they can get it out and no one has really had time to collect thoughts yet. But we’re the fucking ‘KNOT. And when we come out, you’ll know your band is done.”
However, singer Corey Taylor has many times said that he is unsure if the band will record another album. In fact, speaking to the same magazine in August, Taylor said, “It’s still too soon. At least that’s how I feel. I’m not ready to make a Slipknot album.”
Guys, no offense, but you all need to get your story straight within your own camp before releasing conflicting stories. I’m all for a new Slipknot album but I need to see every member have the same energy and conviction as the other. Take your time, collect your thoughts, grieve, do what you need to do. Then come back and show me what you all can do. I know you’ve got it in you.
Slipknot’s Clown Posts Video For Black Dots Of Death Project
Slipknot‘s Clown has released a video that is meant to discuss his Black Dots Of Death project. However, the video is such a garbled mess that I couldn’t watch more than two minutes before shutting it off in disgust. After hearing ‘Let’s Get F**ked Up‘, I didn’t have high hopes. Now, whatever hopes were remaining are dashed. I’m happy for Clown that he’s expanding and still doing work, but I just can’t get on board with Black Dots Of Death. Anyone of you guys into this?
Slipknot’s Clown Presents ‘The Black Dots Of Death’
Slipknot’s Clown has founded a side project entitled ‘The Black Dots Of Death’. The debut album will be released January 11th, 2011 (1/11/11, get it?). You can check out their first single, ‘Let’s Get F**ked Up’, as well as a video teaser for the same song at their Official Website (heads up, you have to be 18 or over to enter the site).
When asked about ‘The Black Dots Of Death’, Clown eloquently stated, “This is my new project, this is my new pain. Enjoy.”
Eli Roth ‘Clown’ Short Becomes Feature, ‘Aftershock’
Back in October we brought you a pretty awesome Halloween treat: a mock trailer for Clown, which was assembled using Eli Roth’s name as the crux for the joke. While it was funny, it was actually a pretty sweet idea for a feature as it followed a dad who puts on a clown costume for his kid’s birthday, only to have it transform into an evil clown creature. The treat is now a full blown bag of candy as a feature film version was financed, with Roth coming aboard to produce. You’ll find the full details inside, along with info a second project, Aftershock, which takes place following the Chilean earthquake.
