Wrinkles The Clown

Wrinkles The Clown

It started with a surveillance video uploaded on YouTube in 2014. The video's description claims that the clown's name is Wrinkles, that he lives in Florida, and that he is hired by children's parents to punish kids who misbehave. After the video went viral, other mysterious videos popped up online...Wrinkles pushing a cart through a parking lot. Waving alongside a busy highway. Holding balloons in front of a suburban home. The unsettling clips launched WRINKLES THE CLOWN to internet infamy. Cryptic stickers with a phone number were plastered on telephone poles and in bathrooms across the state, promising to terrify misbehaving children. Over 1 million voicemails were left. Wrinkles the Clown follows this eerie real-life character and explores the unpredictable spread of imagination in the internet age.

With its droll humor and bittersweet emotional heft, the feature debut of writer-director Greg Mottola announced the arrival of an unassumingly sharp-witted new talent on the 1990s indie scene.

Beneath the Planet of the Apes  end credit

Negro Credit: Beneath The Planet of the Apes

This weekend I was watching Beneath the Planet of the Apes on TCM. I was horrified to read the end credits. I was quite surprised to see actor Don Pedro Colley billed as Negro. I found this to be offensive even for 1970 standards. I think 20th Century Fox (Walt Disney) should correct this offensive credit.
