Amusement (2008)

Three former friends are abducted in different ways and brought to a cavernous old mansion where they find that a former childhood friend is out for revenge. The three different stories are ridiculous and so is the ending. There are so many things that happen that don't make sense, most importantly why the boy would want revenge on these girls after all these years. They didn't even do anything except object to his torturing of animals.

The clown on the front cover is only in one segment where the babysitter is staying in the doll room which has a life sized clown doll in a rocking chair. Seriously? There is no way I would ever stay in a room with a life sized doll. It would creep me out so bad I wouldn't dare to close my eyes or turn my back on it. But this woman gets undressed in front of it and isn't alarmed when the doll ends up looking towards her or when she hears noises from that side of the room as she tries to sleep. Damn you, foul clown!
