A dad goes the extra mile to save his son's birthday party, only to suffer a truly evil change in the horror film Clown. Born from a mock trailer that premiered online in 2010, the Eli Roth-produced Clown will be released this summer, and the official trailer teases a creepy transformation.

Synopsis: "CLOWN is a story of a loving father who dons a clown outfit and makeup to perform at his son’s sixth birthday, only to later discover that the costume – red nose and wig included– will not come off and his own personality changes in a horrific fashion. To break the curse of the evil outfit, the father must make grim choices with his own family facing danger."

Directed by Jon Watts (Spider-Man: Homecoming, Cop Car) from a screenplay he wrote with Christopher Ford, Clown is produced by Eli Roth and stars Peter Stormare, Laura Allen, Andy Powers, and Elizabeth Whitmere.

Dimension Films and Anchor Bay Entertainment will release Clown in select theaters and on VOD beginning June 17th.
