Happy Halloween! I should mention that this movie is based on short film(s) that were posted on YT in 2016. That's still 3 years after All Hallow's Eve and one year after its sequel, so my comments on it being an "Art the Clown clone" still stand. It's cool to know it was a passion project for so long. If you want more spooks check out my second channel Alienbacon! We've taken the channel in a scary new direction with new branding etc: th-cam.com/video/fr1tsvAUHy8/w-d-xo.html
👾Damn Elvis has been on his Grind Lately!!👽You buying a new house bro? 😁 I sure as hell appreciate it an love to see AlienBacon back in action -"Time to Probe the Pig"
I saw someone dressed as the clown from the Terrifier, or whatever the movie is called. He was just walking around in broad daylight, he saw me carrying like 40 pounds of groceries on bike and politely moved out of the way. Needless to say my only interaction with the terrifier was not very scary.
For those that don't know The Jester started out as a trilogy of short YT videos and while they where pretty simple they honestly worked pretty well. Think one of the issues with this film is the budget and I don't mean that the budget was too low. I think one of the aspects that made The Jester work was it was made with almost no budget so the creators had to work within their limitations and couldn't use any practical effects. Of course, now that the creators had a budget they fell on simple gory kills which makes him an Art The Clown rip-off rather than the character that the shorts made him out to be.
That's a great point and I think what could save it is less physical harm and more weird magic like the shoes and the apple like a real magicians who uses magic to kill but not so much his hands like art
The jester was three fantastic short horror films and unfortunately they removed the best aspects about the jester. Which was the fact he never technically harmed any of his victims sure sometimes his actions ended up with the victims harmed but he himself never harmed them just using magic to mess around with people. Also in the short horror films he didn't ever deliberately hunt people down he'd put on a performance to people and if they applauded he'd leave them alone. If they didn't he'd put on a different performance which would always end with the person being the victim of disappearing act. The jester in this movies doesn't really act like the jester from the short horror films and i hope one day they'll go back and make a better adaptation unfortunately that doesn't seem likely. :(
I knew something felt off about this! The Jester felt like a character that would thrive with a much better script and if they stopped trying to imitate the Terrifier movies. I love the idea of a chaotic villain who just wants attention. It feels more like folklore or a Japanese yokai. (Haven't seen them myself but I have a good idea of them. Not a gore hound.)
Okay but making a horror villain out of the tumblr sexyman blueprint is actually pretty funny. He's just a silly little guy that likes a hint of murder
I legit thought they used green food coloring or something for the gravedigger's wound. I was thinking "What is the point??" I'm glad you showed the actual wound for a split second. Something so obviously fake should not get you in trouble
@Kieranfowler- Lol I was like, "They may not have had the highest budget, but damn... even ketchup would have been better than whatever green stuff they're using."
Funfact: Many movies about masked killers take place on Halloween because that is like the only night in the year where a guy in a scary mask and maybe blood on his clothes won't draw any attention at all.
The original short film was fun. I don't think that it needed a movie though. edit: it came out 8 years ago, around the same time as the first Terrifier. I don't think it's a rip-off, I think that "scary clown" is just a common trope.
Think also The Jester in the shorts was very different from the one in his film. At least The Jester motivations in the shorts was celebrate Halloween and least appreciate his magic tricks or he'll punish you making him kind of interesting. He was kind of like a spirit of Halloween a bit like Sam from the Trick r Treat film, while The Jester in this full film is just a rip off of Art The Clown.
Art the clown actually existed before the first Terrifier movie. I don’t think the Jester is copying or anything but I think Art the Clown existed first.
@@Corvus7159he was well known in 2013 Damien Leone posted the short films on YT and they both got 100k and the all hallows eve trailer has a mil. although he didn't really become an icon until 2016
Holy shit. I remember seeing the original youtube short films a long time ago and thinking they were pretty cool. Now I wake up and it’s a C tier horror movie lol.
Jester is missing an identity and passion. Art is iconic because he's easily recognizable. Even if you've never heard of or seen a Terrifier film, you'll probably remember Art's design if you see it, even if you don't know his name. Art is also sickeningly chaotic neutral. He could either be the sweetest person you've ever met, or the worst nightmare of your entire life... and the worst part is that you can never truly know what he's up to, even if it's obvious that he's gonna kill or disfigure someone. If anyone can perfectly represent a Gömböc dice, I think it would absolutely be Art the Clown.
Also too it’s helps that David was in kid shows etc… he really is chaotic 😂I would love to see a comic style Batman and he plays joker….He plays other things very well
In my opinion Jester is a great short film or show idea but I don’t really enjoy it as a movie despite being a big fan of that movie but I also I believe this is a bit older when terrifer wasn’t so popular and IMO clown/jester killers aren’t really unique but they can be good if written good like both the jester and terrifer
the way you talked about the jester though, just as a silly little guy who murders people and then dances a bit, actually made me like him... a lot more than art the clown you have made a fan of me jester
I dressed up as this for Halloween two or so years ago. I completely forgot it existed since then, lol. But I thought it was a youtube short kinda like crypt tv and them. I didn't realize it was an entire movie.
I actually remember watching the original short film the jester originated with, I liked it a lot. Surprised to see not only were 2 more shorts made, but an entire movie too? Damn. Sad to see it ain’t good lol
I get it. Am same way. but thing is. Most of these killers never do it quick. They will make you suffer so much you begin to wonder why you did not run when you had the chance.
Maybe the jester is a metaphor for grief and self hate and what that can lead us to do, maybe her dad did in fact kill himself and the jester communicating with her is a way of showing she blames herself, and the deaths around her represent how grief can lead us to hurt others around us and how it can cause relationships to deteriorate. But I might be looking too far into this🗣️🗣️
Fun fact: the Halloween festival they go to is Markoff’s Haunted Forest, a real attraction that opens every Halloween season in Dickerson, Maryland. I’ve been multiple times and highly recommend checking them out!
This movie looks cool! I'm in college and I gotta say it's hard to have money to make an amazing movie. I think that the director of the movie can do better in the future ( at least the camera and color)
What I kind of got out of it was the ending is not to let the darkness over ride your life because I think that’s what John did. He felt so guilty about abandoning one daughter, and he let it in his head not on the outside, but in his head head consume him And so the jester came into his life and then with his daughter that he abandoned, she let her dad abandoning her, consume her and have hate in her when you can have a beautiful life if you do not let the darkness consume your life that’s what I got out of it and that’s why the jester showed up
“Emma is a changed person now. Thanks Jester!” Idk why but the way you said that was pretty funny lol first time seeing a video from this channel and I liked the editing, I’ll go ahead and subscribe
I actually loved this movie. It wasn't good, it wasn't scary, but it had some real emotional vulnerability at times. It felt more like a drama with slasher tropes. And The Jester just exudes dramatic flair, and I find his performance really entertaining. Is it anything special? No. But can someone, without high expectations, watch the movie and enjoy it? I think so.
So, Jester cuts his thoat and the first thing she does is open her mouth as wide as possible while she gets sprayed. I work around patients with pee, poop, germs... the last thing my mouth would do is open wide.
I feel like I really enjoy the more goofy/reality warping powers of the jester. I think in a better movie it could work really well. An omnipresent reality warping psychopath that kills in a more humours way sounds like a super fun horror movie.
Funnily enough this originally was a TH-cam Short horror film an honestly the design and story was more fun with him there where 3 chapters before they came out around 2016 i honestly recommend checking them out this movie such a disappointment compared to the shorts
Happy Halloween! I should mention that this movie is based on short film(s) that were posted on YT in 2016.

You didn't have to pitch a subscription to the game informer magazine? You must of worked for GameStop after me
Happy Halloween 👽 you ever seen movie called "the clown at midnight"? I vaguely remember it scaring the hell out of me as a kid
Happy Halloween
for those of you saying "This would have been better as a youtube short film". That's because its based on a youtube short film of the same name
And they probably already know that, but want to sound smart.
@@johnjsalNot if they word it like that..
@@eggnognoxxy Huh?
So was terrifier but nobody says anything about it
Four comments down and I saw who you were talking about 💀💀
I saw someone dressed as the clown from the Terrifier, or whatever the movie is called. He was just walking around in broad daylight, he saw me carrying like 40 pounds of groceries on bike and politely moved out of the way. Needless to say my only interaction with the terrifier was not very scary.
His name is Art the Clown 😂
Might have been the real Art considering how much the actor has been out in public recently in full Art gear lol
Yeah, you’re not making it through the night lol
Art is often polite, before and after butchering you. Does dishes, cleans clothes, mops floors, returns your lost purse, pays for the items he uses.
He wilted your lettuce.

Yes, I liked the trilogy pretty much then, I also think the design and the character of the jester are pretty cool and unusuel.
The mask is a lit cooler in the short films
I was actually gonna mention that lol glad I am not the only one who remembered that!

wait. how did i not realise that 😭😭😭😭 IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW
The cover looks like it the black phone too, I just stare at it…and I keep seeing the resemblance 😮
What I was thinking, it has that same kind of effect with the shadows and stuff. Kinda like a old polaroid photo
@@Lucky_ghost8 ah true true
that was a really good movie
That's where I recognized it from
the grabber & art the clown's $5 lovechild
I legit thought they used green food coloring or something for the gravedigger's wound. I was thinking "What is the point??" I'm glad you showed the actual wound for a split second. Something so obviously fake should not get you in trouble
Same bro😂 a was like surely they aren't using green blood
@Kieranfowler- Lol I was like, "They may not have had the highest budget, but damn... even ketchup would have been better than whatever green stuff they're using."
Glad to see you making more content here lately, Elvis!

@@ssharkbait Art first appeared in 2008's "The 9th Circle", though he definitely wasn't well-known until 2016
I did enjoy the Jester short films. Also don't think he needed a movie!

Looks like Terrifier and Black phone mixed in one..
Jester would have been better as a youtube short film
Funny because it actually started out as 3 Short YT horror films, before the creator made this movie.
@ huh thats why it has that yt horror short film feel to it and why its kinda lacking as it goes on throughout the stretch
it was one @@Banished-rx4ol
It might seem crazy what I'm bout to say

Art is more chaotic evil.
Wouldn't a gömböc dice be the most predictable thing ever?
Also too it’s helps that David was in kid shows etc… he really is chaotic 😂I would love to see a comic style Batman and he plays joker….He plays other things very well
Art kills nearly everybody he interacts with even if it's a relatively benign interaction.
@@retsaMinnavoiGhe’s let a lot of people go, just ones who stumbled on his acts or disrespected him.
The Jester seems, somehow, like a lower budget Jack-In-The-Box
In my opinion Jester is a great short film or show idea but I don’t really enjoy it as a movie despite being a big fan of that movie but I also I believe this is a bit older when terrifer wasn’t so popular and IMO clown/jester killers aren’t really unique but they can be good if written good like both the jester and terrifer
And I feel like I’ve seen a short of this exact idea from a channel that makes scary content videos. Like CrypticTV or something like that I think?
@@PetiteChevalAmie it came from a short, yes.
You can tell by the cuts between the scenes.
It actually started out as a trilogy of short films and they where pretty good, the creator of those shorts directed this movie.
Here, have some of these lil bro: ,,,.,.,,....,.
the way you talked about the jester though, just as a silly little guy who murders people and then dances a bit, actually made me like him... a lot more than art the clown
you have made a fan of me jester
Honestly if ur a fan of the jester check out the original short films, hes even more likable in that tbh
@@SillyGooberQ4 oh hell yea i think it might just make an ULTRA FAN outta me
Maybe the jester are the friends we made along the way
Honestly, the general concept of The Jester is awesome and his outfit is great. Id love to see him brought back with a better mask and a better script
Well you’re in luck! There is allegedly a second one in the works!
The irony. I was just watching Elvis the Alien videos and now this treat dropped. Great as always. 🎭🎃
doing the same 🤣😂🤣😂
Not irony but thats ok
That's not irony
What does this mean?
That's just a happy coincidence
Ima bout to say it...
Jester is Art, but employed🎩
The og TH-cam short was dope
Kinda disappointed you didn’t research. The jester started off as a series of short films on TH-cam about 8 years ago
You clearly suffer from autism 😂
"When you can't appreciate someone's small gesture, you'll get a visit from the Jester!"
The Jester was one of my Halloween costumes this time around... it's a good B movie
Wasn't the jester originally a short horror film?
Yes
@GriffintheMKGeek I thought so and thought I recognised the name too as well also too
@Aaronrosse yea i think Cory reacted to it for sss
Yes here take a cooke.🍪
@TheHorrorAnalog thank you I love cookie's
I dressed up as this for Halloween two or so years ago. I completely forgot it existed since then, lol. But I thought it was a youtube short kinda like crypt tv and them. I didn't realize it was an entire movie.
Because it did start out as 3 youTube short films -
@justt_mythy Oh, okay. That's probably why I remember it as one then. ┐('～')┌
THANK YOU FOR COVERING THIS
Happy Halloween Elvis. Love the vid as usual. You have literally never made a bad video/review
I remember seeing the short horror films of that jester!
A movie that really shoulda remained the short film it was
Elvis upload on Halloween?! Oh hell yeah!
This is giving me Atlantic Rim flashbacks
I unironically love the jester, I have no clue why
I actually remember watching the original short film the jester originated with, I liked it a lot. Surprised to see not only were 2 more shorts made, but an entire movie too? Damn. Sad to see it ain’t good lol
This movie was actually kind of creative, if this movie had a good budget and good acting, it could probably be good
“The Terrifier we got at home”.😂

u aint funny lil bro
@@coolinspace6596 thx 😊
Just started rewatching Cory’s sss and saw the short film for this there. I knew I recognized the jester’s outfit and mask.
Just came back from your Countdown video. Glad to see you’re still alive ❤
I wached all the shorts and had no idea they made a movie, I enjoyed the shorts but no way thought this needs a movie.
Terribly 3
The quick cut to Mr. Bean copying off the dude 9:38 had me crying 😂.

So, Jester cuts his thoat and the first thing she does is open her mouth as wide as possible while she gets sprayed. I work around patients with pee, poop, germs... the last thing my mouth would do is open wide.
I bet your mouth would be wide open if your patient was a tall, good looking guy

Maybe the real jester were the friends we made along the way.
that sound effect at 6:58 hit me like a truck

jester 2 will have more lore
Please watch Mr Crockett!! Real hidden gem! Feels right up your alley!
That suit is 100% not cheap so it's a bit weird they use a spirit Halloween mask
I feel like I really enjoy the more goofy/reality warping powers of the jester. I think in a better movie it could work really well. An omnipresent reality warping psychopath that kills in a more humours way sounds like a super fun horror movie.

theres also the jack in the box
the jester was a short movie on TH-cam a few years back it was pretty sick
