I love horror movies. I have never found clowns - in and of themselves - to be scary. Of course, if you twist and distort their makeup, give them demonic blanked-out eyes, and put a chainsaw in their hands, they become scary. But so would Bambi if you plastered his face with demonic makeup, blanked-out the little ****er's eyes and strapped a chainsaw to his hooves.
It must be hard for Bell to find shoe manufacturers for his size 26 clodhoppers...Which can be no small feat.
