Nevada’s Infamous Clown Motel has Spawned Its First Movie

I suppose it was inevitable that the infamous Clown Motel of Tonopah, Nevada was bound to spawn a movie.
It’s creepy enough to find a motel in the middle of the desert that is filled to the brim with clown memorabilia, but when you consider it also sits across the road from an isolated cemetery…well, we’re not sure why it took so long for this to happen.
Clown Motel is headed direct-to-video on June 4, 2019 according to Dread Central, and it appears to have taken everything about the location and turned it up to 11.
Listed as Clown Motel: Spirits Arise on IMDb, the film stars Tony Moran, who was the un-masked Michael Myers in Halloween 1978, and Ari Lehman who played Jason Voorhees as a child in the first Friday the 13th film. It was written and directed by Joseph Kelly (Bloody Island).
The film centers on two groups: a pack of ghost hunters and the members of a bachelorette party. Unfortunately for both groups, their lives intersect at the mysterious Clown Motel. What starts out as a party soon turns to terror as the angry and violent spirits of the clowns who once stayed there rise from the cemetery across the road.
The clowns are definitely not here to entertain you!
Honestly, this film looks like a total cheesefest, but I mean, would we expect anything less?
Check out the trailer below and decide for yourself whether you’ll check into the Clown Motel on June 4, 2019!

Vomit Bags Handed Out in Theaters as ‘Saw X’ is Called Worse Than ‘Terrifier 2’

Remember all the puking folks were doing when Terrifier 2 was released in theaters? It was an incredible amount of social media showing folks tossing their cookies in theaters at the time. For good reason too. If you have seen the film and know what Art the Clown does to a girl in a yellow room, you know that Terrifier 2 wasn’t messing around. But it appears that Saw X is being seen a challenger.
One of the scenes that is apparently bothering folks this time is the one in which a guy has to perform brain surgery on himself in order to hack out a chunk of grey matter that weighs enough for the challenge. The scene is pretty brutal.
The synopsis for Saw X goes like this:
Hoping for a miraculous cure, John Kramer travels to Mexico for a risky and experimental medical procedure, only to discover the entire operation is a scam to defraud the most vulnerable. Armed with a newfound purpose, the infamous serial killer uses deranged and ingenious traps to turn the tables on the con artists.
For me personally, I still think that Terrifier 2 owns this crown though. It is gnarly throughout and Art is brutal and doesn’t have a code or anything. He just loves killin’. While Jigsaw deals in revenge or in ethics. Also, we see the vomit bags, but I haven’t seen anyone using em just yet. So, I’ll remain skeptical.
All in all, I gotta say I like both films since both are sticking with practical effects instead of going the cheapy computer graphics way.
Have you seen Saw X yet? Do you think that it rivals Terrifier 2? Let us know in the comments section.

Billy Gives a Tour of His Home in ‘SAW X’ MTV Parody

While SAW X dominates in theaters, we here at iHorror are enjoying the promos. One of the best SAW promos that we have seen is hands down the one that features Billy giving us a tour of his home in a MTV parody approach.
The latest SAW film brings back Jigsaw by taking us back into the past and an all-out revenge plan on his Cancer doctors. A group that counts on making money off of sick people messes with the wrong guy and undergoes a whole lot of torture.

‘The Last Drive-In’ Changes to Single Movie Approach Over Double Features

Well, while I always enjoy more Joe Bob Briggs in my life I am not sure about AMC’s latest decision for Joe Bob Briggs and The Last Drive-In. The news going around is that the team would be getting a “super-sized” season. While it does go on a little longer than we are used to, it comes with a huge bummer as well.
The “super-sized” season will also include the upcoming John Carpenter Halloween special and the Daryl Dixon Walking Dead series’ first episodes. It also includes a Christmas Episode and a Valentine’s Day episode. When the true season begins next year it will give us one episode every other week in place of the much-loved double-feature.
This will stretch out the season further but not by giving fans extra films. Instead, it will skip a week and skip out on the late-night fun of the double feature.
This is a decision made by AMC Sudder and not by the team at The Last Drive-In.
I’m hoping that a well-placed petition may assist in getting the double features back. But only time will tell.
What do you think about the new line-up for The Last Drive-In? Will you miss the double features and the string of consistent episodes? Let us know in the comments section.
