...

This movie actually may be THE absolute WORSSSTT movie i have ever watched in my entire life This is saying a LOT because i am someone who enjoys very movie, like I enjoyed Madame Web.

The use of modern gen z lingo is cringy causing me to not take the movie seriously whatsoever (and IM GEN Z) Nothing makes sense??? AT ALL The acting is horrible and all of the actions and saying of the characters like nobody acts like that in real life.

The actions of the main character are so random it's insane im so mad I paid 7 dollars to watch it on youtube. I just wanted to watch a good new horror movie and this was NOT it. So cringy that it's impossible to find it thrilling or frightening.

Not sure why the ratings for the movie are so high because it is genuinely bad.

Thank you for your time.

Bowie is far from hunky dory.

Having starred in a killer clown movie, emotionally fragile actress Bowie (Jenna Kanell) finds herself harrassed by obsessive perverts who inundate her with obscene messages via social media. When her more successful girlfriend Jessica (Danielle Lyn), star of a hit TV show, leaves for a job in London, Bowie is left all alone, and is targeted by an intruder in a clown mask carrying a pair of garden shears; however, Bowie is able to overpower the prowler and deals with him using extreme force, an act of violence that tips the already unstable woman over the edge...

Like Zoe Termelis's character in Ms.45, Bowie flips her wig when attacked by a man. However, unlike Abel Ferrara's movie, Faceless After Dark is less 'satisfying and stylish feminist revenge fantasy' and more weak 'torture porn', the film largely comprising of a series of premeditated acts of violence perpetrated on a series of helpless individuals who, while not exactly upstanding pillars of society, aren't really deserving of such punishment. It's like a rape/revenge movie, but without the rape to justify the revenge.

If an hour or so of a flaky nutjob off her meds luring people to their deaths is what you're after, then have at it, but I was hoping for something a little more substantial.

4.5/10, rounded up to 5 for IMDb.

Faceless After Dark

After starring in a killer clown horror flick, Bowie (Jenna Kanell, Tara from another killer clown movie, Terrifier and Terrifier 2) is held hostage by an unhinged fan posing as the slasher that she survived in her movie, which has now become her life.

Directed by Raymond Wood and written by Todd Jacobs and Jenna Kanell, Faceless After Dark starts with Bowie stuck working conventions and doing Cameos, barely holding on to any fame that she may have had. Meanwhile, her girlfriend Jessica (Danielle Lyn) is really enjoying getting to star in a superhero movie. It gets so bad that fans ask Bowie to take photos of themselves with Jessica, which really gets at her.

The man in the clown mask (Max Calder) has, however, found the wrong final girl for the movie in his head. Bowie has had it with her place in the world and is way more dangerous than the character she played on screen. After killing off one fan, she feels something she hasn't felt in some time. Some level of control. Some level of being alive. And that clown won't be the last. Bowie begins to invite all of the worst comments on her social media to Jessica's house and then kills them, one by one, all while neon colors play on the screen and blood sprays.

Is it a home invasion movie if you invite them into the house?

You're either going to see this as a cathartic blast of getting back at horrible people or an entitled woman who just can't get it together. I'm on the former side of the argument, but I can see some loving this and some just hating every minute.

That said, Kanell is great and the movie looks absolutely gorgeous.
