Hey everyone,
This question has been with me for years, and hopefully I've finally found the place where it can be answered...
Back in the early 90s, I lived in London, England. There was a poster in the subway station that looked like it was for some kind of horror movie, it had a bunch of cards and dice all over it and a strange/evil looking jester laying across it. For some reason I think the movie may have had sexual overtones. It was rated "18," so I imagine it was rated R in the US. The timeframe that it was released in London was some time between 1992 and 1997.
It might be a horrible movie (probably so, since I haven't heard of it since), but I would appreciate any help anyone could offer me. I wasn't allowed to see it back when I was a kid, but it intrigued me for some reason, and here I am attempting to track it down. Thanks!

:confused: :crickets chirping: I have no clue. If it has a jester in it though, I may be interested. I'm collecting evil clown/jester/mime movies. Hmmmmm......

I think I might have figured it out...thanks zwoti for prompting me to look up Christopher Lee...he (barely) played in a movie called "Funny Man" that came out in 1994. It fits perfectly, but I can't find the original movie poster...but I'm pretty sure that that's it. This makes me really happy :).
So anyways, if you're looking for a jester/clown movie, this might be a good one. If anyone knows where I can see some kind of promotional poster that'd be cool...I saw the cover of the box though and it looks spot on.

Geez! I had found this movie awhile back by going to blockbuster's website and typing "Killer Clowns". I'd have never guessed this was the movie you were describing.

Though skillfully managing two posts on this thread, I am left wondering how you have enough time on your hands to waste by spending it saying absolutely nothing. Stick to the f*cking topic.
Everyone else, thanks for your help.
