Clown Motel Joseph Kelly Ari Lehman

Out in the Nevada desert there's a place that's a tourist attraction because of how creepy it is – the Clown Motel. As if a motel with a clown theme wasn't already unsettling enough, this place also sits right at the edge of an old cemetery. Writer/director Joseph Kelly saw the horrific potential of the Clown Motel and decided to make a genre movie set there, a movie that also happens to be titled CLOWN MOTEL.

Starring Ari Lehman, who played young Jason Voorhees in the original FRIDAY THE 13TH, and Tony Moran, who was the unmasked Michael Myers in the original HALLOWEEN, CLOWN MOTEL follows 

a group of Ghosthunters coming from an old ghost town and a bachelorette party returning home from Las Vegas. When the groups meet up by mistake at this motel, they must discover whether it is really abandoned or haunted by the souls of the clowns that once lived there? 

Also in the cast are Martin Klebba, Chalet Lizette Brannan, Robert B. Oliver, Elinor Price, Amanda Kott, Angeline Mirenda, Alyssa Howell, Donald Schell, Steven Vogel, and Eric Prochnau.

CLOWN MOTEL is set to receive a theatrical, VOD, and DVD release on June 4th. Copies of the DVD can be pre-ordered on Amazon, or through a fundraising campaign that Kelly is running to cover post-production costs.

We'll have a review of CLOWN MOTEL to share soon, but in the meantime check out this trailer:
