Funny Man

1994 · 92 min

A gleefully silly, gory pantomime of a slasher where a wisecracking killer winks at you between cartoonish murders.

Tagline: He's cheeky & he's cruel!
Overview: When Max Taylor wins the ancestral home of Callum Chance in a game of Poker, little does he realize that the game is far from over. One by one, Max's family are murdered by the Funny Man, a demonic jester with a varied and imaginative repertoire of homicidal techniques and an irreverent sense of humor. Meanwhile, Max's brother is on his way to the mansion with a bunch of hitchhikers who will be lucky to survive the night.

Content: Strong violence and gore. Mild sexual content and language.
