Killing Giggles
Teaser:
Short, Horror / 6 min / 2017
Tommy Dos Santos wasn’t born a psychopath, really, nor was he made into a sociopath, per se. He was something entirely new, and he was walking his own path – a path that will run red with the blood of the foulest most fiendishly frightening creatures ever conceived by man – CLOWNS. No longer the madmen and monsters that nightmares are made of, it is the clowns who are the victims now, running for their lives from a killer who won’t stop until every single one of them is dead. As Tommy‘s body count rises, he finds himself getting closer and closer to what he thought was a ghost, the once great clown king known as Giggles, and wonders: If laughter can’t die, how about Giggles? From the mad movie-making mind of writer/director Jaysen P. Buterin (Between Hell and a Hard Place, Don’t Let the Light In, The Corner) comes KILLING GIGGLES, the proof-of-concept short film version of the harrowing Hitchcockian horror story that will take a timeless terror trope and turn it on its rainbow wig-covered head. Next summer, it’s time to send in the clowns – to die.
Written and directed by: Jaysen P. Buterin
