Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 1/4 --
A bizarre comedy that stretches its central gimmick thinner than watered-down carnival taffy.

A must-see for clown haters.

Rating: 2/5 --
The tagline is true - and so are the rumors.
Cinerina
Rating: 7/10 --
Clearly achieves what Goldthwait wanted it to, and the unapologetic bluntness of it is itself worthy of praise, however awkward and squeamish.

When it works, it's uniquely funny. When it doesn't, it's uniquely bad.

Product Description:
Shakes the Clown (Goldthwait, who also wrote and directed) drinks too much, is late to birthday parties and his girlfriend calls it quits when he misses her big bowling tournament. But things get worse when the clown dispatcher is found dead and Shakes becomes the prime suspect. He's on the run to prove his innocence, save the woman he loves from an evil clown and come to terms with the realization that he's a serious boozer. Billed as "The CITIZEN KANE of alcoholic clown movies," SHAKES also features a then unknown Sandler in a bit part as well as a scene-stealing, foulmouthed turn from Page, better know as Aunt Esther of TV's "Sanford and Son."
