It has a 'thriller' edge to it. The normally goofy and extremely hyper Robin Willliams gives an outstanding performance in this disturbing movie that shows the effects of isolation and lonliness.

CLOWN RAPE IS NOT FUNNY!! But seriously, this movie was produced by Kevin Smith and is a dark, ugly, raw, brutal drama about a down-on-his-luck profesional clown who gets gang raped.

This was MUCH better, and more personal than 'Hotel Rwanda'. 900,000 people were killed in 90 days, that's mass murder that exeeds the nazis. This was not the first genocide in this conflict, and the conflict between Hutu and Tutsi continues today.

'night, Mother (1986)'night, Mother (1986)
What would you do if your daughter sat down and told you she has decided to commit suicide by the end of the night? This is a little known gutpunch of a movie starring Sissy Spacek. If you've ever had a moment of self-dought, this movie will be painfull to watch.

The only thing that stops this film from being expliotation trash is the fact that it's disturbingly accurate in portraying disfunctional people. Beavis and Butthead in real life.
