Wrinkles The Clown

[Richard Channing]

This is the best documentary I've seen in a while. Wrinkles The Clown is a real life bogey man who is just a phone call away if you want him to come scare the shit out of your misbehaving kids, although usually just dialing the number seems to do do the trick. We get to meet some of the kids, most of whom are pretty hilarious, who've been most affected by the phenomenon, whether that means being a fascinated fan or scarred for life. And it certainly raises some questions about the parenting choices of those who use Wrinkles to traumatize their kids into good behaviour.
I won't say much more as I don't want to give away some surprises the doc has in store, but I found it very original and cleverly done.

Here's the trailer and the full doc is below.

If anyone is in the mood for a Halloween appropriate documentary I can recommend this dark, twisted, yet funny little gem.
