Back in October, we shared the news that Jonathan Lipnicki, now twenty years removed from being the kid in JERRY MAGUIRE, had signed on to star in director Christopher Douglas-Olen Ray's creepy clown film CIRCUS KANE. The movie has since made its way through production, and now a teaser has been released online as the filmmakers get CIRCUS KANE ready for a screening at the Cannes Film Festival in May.
Scripted by James Cullen Bressack and Zack Ward (who also have the Shannen Doherty / Tom Green horror movie BETHANY coming out soon), CIRCUS KANE sees
a reclusive circus master invites a group of social media stars to his house of haunts. Anyone who can make it out before being scared into submission will earn $250,000 — but the stars soon learn they are not only competing for money, but also fighting their lives.
Lipnicki's co-stars include Bill Voorhees, Mark Christopher Lawrence, and Nicole Fox.
The trailer can be seen below and features one of the craziest looking killer clowns this side of KILLER KLOWNS FROM OUTER SPACE. While some parts of the movie seem a bit too "Jigsaw under the big top" for my taste, the clown guarantees that I'll be watching CIRCUS KANE.
