Klown Kamp Massacre is a 2010 American horror film written and directed by Philip H. R. Gunn and David Valdez. They have been writing and directing films together for over fifteen years.[1]
Plot
Fifteen years ago, Edwin (Jared Herholtz) went to clown camp to fulfill his lifelong dream of bringing laughter to the world, however nobody laughed. Humiliated on graduation night, Edwin viciously murdered the entire camp before vanishing into legend.
But, despite the warnings of the town drunk, Bonzo (Mike Miller) has reopened the ranch and a new class of clowns have unwittingly signed up. When their die-hard instructor Sgt. Funnybone (Miguel Martinez) is found dead in a puddle of cream pie and blood, the curriculum changes from comedy to survival. Edwin slashes, stabs, strangles, and disembowels the clowns while laughing insanely at his own bad jokes.

Reception
HorrorNews.net gave the film a favourable review mentioning that it "delivers the gore while maintaining a tongue-in-cheek atmosphere.[2] Ryan's Review gave the film an 8/10 with a good review.[3] Jeremy Biltz from DVD Talk gave the film 3/5 stars, writing, "Klown Kamp Massacre is a film that goes for the gag with delighted abandon, and doesn't really care what taboos or sacred cows it runs down in the process. It's not exactly a high quality endeavor, but it delivers enough laughs and fun gore effects that it works for the thin slice of the slasher comedy genre it's aiming at."[4]
