Shakes the Clown Review

“A clown, down on his luck with the world turning its back to him and his own degrading stability leading to a tragic tale of losing friends, losing those you care about and finally, things turning dark in the big city.” Eh. Probably already seen that.

I was thinking exactly that lol

Joker? I know he a comedian in the new movie but same thing

[@ironmaster6496]

this is joker but fletcher has friends who support him so his life doesnt go south

[@dave.p153]

There is nothing like shakes the clown.

[@deadaccount7520]

That ain't Binky the clown. Binky was always screaming "HEY KIDS" comically waking up sarcastic orange cats.

[@shizuwolf]

The the cat says the clown should be dragged into the street and shot

[@cartooncritique6625]

Ah, those were the days! XD

[@MALKMIN_THE_MILKMAN]

I thought the name sounded familiar and now I finally remember Garfield and friends

[@GanonGhidorah]

Holy crap...I raised an eyebrow when he said Adam Sandler was in this. He got my attention when he said Tom Kenny was in this...But the fact that Robin Williams was in this? That just made me smile... And oh great...Decker is totally doing Joker next.

[@Jackie-McCann]

Likewise. When I heard those names pop up during the review, I was like, Wait, what? 😯 Wait, What? 😳 WAIT, _WHAT?!_ 🤯

[@jojushabadoo2722]

My feelings exactly, in that order

[@weirdguy1495]

And this isn't the first clown thing Robin Williams has participated in. Anyone remember that piece of shit Patch Adams?

[@thelaughingrouge]

Bobcat and Robin were very close. If you haven't heard it I recommend you listen to when Bobcat was on Joe Rogan talking about Robin's life at the end. It's pretty sad but he lays out what really happened with his friend.

[@kaeh6807]

EXACTLY my reaction!!

[@さくら-l8t]

Finally, a movie about clowns that doesn’t portray them as scary killers or monsters. It’s nice to have a clown movie that takes a different approach that’s more centered around comedy and drama.

[@jordancarpenter6816]

A serious dramatic, non horror movie about a clown that isn't Joker starring Joaquin Phoenix?! Nice!!! :)

[@RThyrring]

He actually did a review/reaction video on Joker when it was playing in theatres

Fun Fact: Bobcat Goldthwaite and Tom Kenny were best friends in school.

And they still ARE!

[@jareth1969]

I went to the same high school they did (a few years after) and a lot of the stories that were told were funnier than most of their skits!!! (Bobcat also got banned for life after coming back to do a show and dropped his pants (private schools....sheesh) LOL)

Decker reviewing a movie about clowns that isn’t a horror movie, what the heck?

[@jujutaylor2186]

Any movie with clowns is a horror movie tbh

[@journeytotheotherside]

Juju Taylor can’t disagree

[@caxolog]

Journey To The Other Side yeah but, it’s still pretty funny as a joke

[@theterbear9915]

This is the oddest group of actors I've seen in a movie. Also can't help but hear SpongeBobs voice in Binky.

[@sarahok6589]

lmao!

[@mrmusickhimself]

I always dug this movie. Tom Kenny's performance as Binky provided one of the best evil clowns in movie history. The scene where he glares at a helpless Julie and says "You piss me off" was legitimately bone-chilling. It sucks that Bobcat's attempt at making an actual horror film with Willow Creek was an utter disappointment.

To be fair their are many princes claiming that title, but I think Decker Shado and Brandon Tenold are effectively the next heir apparents to the dead king Doug walkers (nostalgia critics) thrown. Granted no one holds a candel to our emperor cinema sins, but the roll of prince is ever up for grabs! We just haven't seen the Texas horror mop head and Canada's pride do a cross over fight to the death for the iron play button throne yet! LOL

I had no idea bobcat was still alive let alone still doing stuff! What's great is that your videos wont feel dated because you arent mentioning quarantine. Your witty and slightly awkward humor is refreshing and unique. Cheers!

[@docsnake]

I used to be a cocktail waitress at a comedy club a long long time ago in San Francisco. Practically all of the comedians in this film used to perform there at the beginning of their careers, Marc Maron too. When this movie came out Bobcat was so excited. It is just so awesome and crazy to see how far they've all come.

[@judsongaiden9878]

Binkoid's jacket has the same color scheme as that zebra gum from back in the day. Is that still around? 8:12 Who was it who said that a clown and a mime in the same room is like a snake and a mongoose? Was that from a classic '90s episode of 'The X-Files'? 16:22 No Primus reference?! Denied! 16:36 That's not a truck, yo! Maybe Bobcat flubbed the line but kept it anyway.

[@mindisfrozen]

I actually believe I've seen this before on TV during late night. Turned it on during the Clowns vs Mimes brawl and went "what the fuck did I just turn on?". Sadly I didn't finish it but now, I need to hunt it down.

[@mistermatix8241]

Bobcat Goldthwaite and Tim Kazurinsky......Zed and Sweetchuck from the Police Academy films reunited! Surprised that wasn't picked up on....

[@GaryTurbo]

I never expect a movie about clowns to be so depressing (10:08) That's the first time i seen someone drink beer with a straw

[@dhnation4975]

This is the Big Lebowski of clown movies.

[@hunterivey]

I find it interesting that Tom Kennedy is serial killer in the movie, It probably be interesting see him as the next Joker.

Three words: Found. Footage. Film.

[@trevorbrown1964]

I can already tell that you’ll be able to tell scary campfire stories

[@striderreborn1467]

Bobcat has stated in interviews that this was his jab at the backstabbing nature of Hollywood and the clowns represent the comedy community and how cutthroat comedians can be in attaining fame and success when they no longer look out for each other.

[@jasonharding96]

[@balamtheknowledge9578]

That anodized knife Is wicked cool looking.

[@JetScreamer_YT]

I love this movie! My friends and I got real high one night, and watched it. We loved the hierarchy of clowns. Mrs Brady showing up would tell us that this is a perverted world. Bobcat is a capable director. He's much more than a funny voice This wasn't a blockbuster hit, maybe not even a rental hit. I worked at a video store and it was hardly ever out. But this movie did have something. It was very frank and in-your-face about alcoholism. Shakes is a wonderful clown, and he loves his girlfriend. The only thing in his way is alcohol. Will he be strong enough to land the girl and the job?

[@DokkaChapman]

I wonder what year this came out? *sees Kathy Griffin* Woah! THAT long ago?!

[@rickykeim2005]

Have you ever considered reviewing UHF Decker? I can't be the only person whom has asked you. all you'd really need to look like Weird AL is a Hawaiian shirt and maybe some glasses.

[@dave.p153]

[@GriffinPilgrim]

I'm guessing clown superpowers are like Roger Rabbit toon powers; they literally do only work when it's funny. Makes me think the mimes can create physical invisible objects but only if they don't talk.

[@_victaris_8581]

I have vague memories of watching this movie when I was very young. I remember walking into the video store and seeing a clown on the cover and thinking it was a kids’ movie. My mom apparently thought so too because she let me rent it xD. I don’t remember any of the movie though.
