However, the old theater holds disturbing memories for Kate (Sarah Lassez); her mother was a classical vocalist who was murdered 15 years ago in the opera house's dressing room after a performance of Pagliacci, appropriately enough by a stranger wearing the clown's costume.

The Clown at Midnight also stars Christopher Plummer and Melissa Galianos. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

    Not the best or even scariest movie in the world BY FAR. If your afraid of clowns though, there are some terrifying images of them in here. I contribute about 25%of why I hate clowns to this movie.
