Blood soaked, creative and just a damn good time to be hunted by a psychotic clown, Clown in a Cornfield lives up to its name and then some.

| Apr 15, 2025

Funny, terrifying, and with some surprising heart, Clown in a Cornfield is a definite treat for horror fans.

| Original Score: A- | Apr 10, 2025

… a fast-paced, amiable slasher flick with a handful of big laughs.

| Original Score: 14/20 | Apr 7, 2025

Clown in a Cornfield is frustratingly by-the-numbers...until it very much isn't! Fun characters, satisfying carnage, and some nice surprises makes for a very entertaining clown slasher. I'm interested to see more from Friendo!

| Original Score: 3.75/5 | Mar 31, 2025

Anyone who has a passing interest in either horror or comedy should rush out to the theater. Craig has crafted a great horror-comedy that actually delivers on both fronts.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Mar 21, 2025

'Clown in a Cornfield' doesn’t just pay homage; it brings its own flavor to this blood-soaked buffet, proving that the slasher genre still has plenty of fresh rows to harvest.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 20, 2025

It delivers some pretty effective subversions of genre expectations without being obnoxiously meta or feeling like it’s trying too hard to be clever. The ending lands hard with a sinister twist that elevates it above your typical slasher or horror comedy.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 20, 2025

“Clown in a Cornfield” deserves to be seen on the big screen with a massive audience. It promises to be a killer communal experience.

| Original Score: B+ | Mar 20, 2025

I found Craig’s film much more interesting when it was just allowed to be chaotic instead of when it was explaining the chaos.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Mar 14, 2025

The film is at its best when it offers a droll critique of the current culture.

| Original Score: B- | Mar 14, 2025

This movie did not help me get over my fear of clowns.

Clown in a Cornfield has so many inspired kills among the carnage that it’s hard to not have a good time. It’s also effortlessly funny as it takes us through familiar territory...

‘Clown In A Cornfield’ is ‘Scream’ for the digital era: a dark horror comedy unafraid of slaughtering its darlings in the name of skewering a collapsing society.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Mar 13, 2025

A fun slasher flick for teens

Clown in a Cornfield feels like the kind of movie you'd find playing on tv in the middle of the night that makes you scared to leave your bed.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Mar 13, 2025

A lesser mix of Children of the Corn, Hot Fuzz, The Wicker Man, and any number of cursed small town films, Clown in a Cornfield is not the blast it should be, and that’s a bummer.

| Mar 13, 2025

The film, in its trivial way, exudes a dyspeptic downer vibe, the result of everyone in it being so testy and unpleasant.

| Mar 12, 2025

Clown in A Cornfield has a lot of heart, and not just of the bloody variety.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 12, 2025

Tucker and Dale vs. Evil director Eli Craig tackles the mostly faithful adaptation with aplomb, bringing the right balance of gore and comedy for a zippy, lean slasher.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 12, 2025

Packed with sharp dialogue and impressive performances (Douglas being particularly good), this one doesn’t clown around.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 12, 2025
