Stitches – AMC+, Plex, Shudder, Tubi, Vudu

While performing at a children’s birthday party, Stitches the Clown attempts to entertain but finds himself the subject of ridicule instead. Then a freak accident claims his life. Six years later, Stitches returns from the grave to exact revenge. This slasher comedy emphasizes splatstick gore. Think Evil Dead 2 levels of gory silliness, with inventive kills suitable for a killer clown. We’re talking balloon animals made of intestines and ice cream sundaes concocted out of brains. The only aim in Stitches is to offer a good time with great kills, and it nails it.

Clown – Pluto TV, Tubi, Vudu

Presenting a new angle on body horror, Clown sees a dad trying to compensate for the cancellation of his son’s birthday party by donning a clown suit he finds in the basement of a house he’s selling. Once the party is over, he finds the clown suit is fusing itself to his body. The more it takes over, the higher his drive to slaughter children. It’s a demonic possession turned slasher movie by way of grotesque body horror. Scenes featuring attempts to remove the clown skin make for excellent, cringe-inducing horror. Look for Peter Stormare to steal scenes while delivering needed exposition on the mythos. Clown takes the body horror route to highly entertaining results.

Hell House LLC – AMC+, Plex, Prime Video, Roku, Screambox, Shudder, Tubi

The Halloween season is practically here already, right? A group of friends works to transform an old hotel into a Halloween haunt attraction in time for the season. An unexplained accident on their first night in business resulted in 15 attendees and staff members’ tragic deaths. Over a decade later, a documentary crew ventures there to answer what happened on that fateful night. Written and directed by Stephen Cognetti, this faux-documentary-style horror movie brings many thrills and chills. The maze-like setup of the home and the subtle details enhance the spooky tone of this movie. This place is haunted and will instill a deep fear of clowns.

Killer Klowns from Outer Space – Plex, Pluto TV, Tubi

It’s tough to create a clown horror list without the definitive clown horror comedy. The Chiodo brothers’ production follows a town under siege by clown-like aliens from space. These Killer Klowns set about transforming the locals into cotton candy cocoons so they can slurp them down through straws. Any conceivable clown tactic transforms into a horrific weapon or bait to lure in human prey. Throw in an earworm score, and you’ve got a fun popcorn crowd-pleaser.

The Last Circus – Hulu, Plex, Pluto TV, Tubi

Biting social satire meets brutal violence in this dark horror-comedy, where a young trapeze artist is torn between her lust for Sergio, the Happy Clown, or her affection for Javier, the Sad Clown. Both clowns are disturbed individuals, which means an explosive love triangle with catastrophic casualties. It’s grim, tragic, and violent; there’s nothing jovial about these clowns.
