"BAD CLOWN RINGWORM CIRCUS"
is the pilot for a cartoon TV show, made by a SubGenius, Rev. Jason
Dubin.

Sunday, October 6, it's being shown at
Two Boots Pioneer Theater's Short Film Slam
155 E. 3rd Street Ave. A
New York, New York
2 p.m.

I saw these cartoons and they are TRULY fucked up. I mean in the good
way. The protagonists are 5 extremely dysfunctional clowns; the plot
is, they must travel by car across America to retrieve the corpse of a
dead relative so that they can collect an inheritance. The art is
minimalistic and very clean looking, which accentuates the
fucked-upedness of the characters. It has a strange, jerky pacing which
gives it a Lynchish spaced out quality. The clowns' dialog on the other
hand has an almost S. Clay Wilson lilt to it.

As a long time explorer of the Evil Clown and Fucked Up Clown motifs
since high school, and as a compulsive low-tech animator, I give Bad
Clown Ringworm Circus an A plus in both evil and befuckedness.

"Bob" makes a cameo appearance on the side of a truck.

The NYC clench might make a party of it.
