Adam Krause's Gags Brings More Clown Sightings to Chicago's Cinepocalypse

In 2016, throughout Wisconsin, several clowns were sighted around the state. The figures would appear in alleys or dark spaces, holding black balloons. These sightings were part of the clown roaming craze, which took place throughout the year. Some of these sightings were part of director Adam Krause's publicity stunt, which hoped to draw attention to his horror short "Gags." In 2018, this short film has been developed into a feature film. This title will have its World Premiere at the Cinepocalypse Film Festival, in Chicago, Illinois. The film stars: Lauren Ashley Carter (Imitation Girl, 2017), Tracy Perez (Devil May Call), Aaron Christensen and Evan Gamble. To show in late June, a preview of the feature film Gags is hosted here.

The film is an anthology. There are at least four tales, which cover socio-political issues. The short films loosely follow: a reporter, a right wing podcast pundit, a pair of cops and a trio of troublemaking teens. Everyone will experience coulrophobia this Summer as Gags begins it film festival run.

Cinepocalypse will show several other films. Several titles will have their World Premiere at this event, including: the post-apocalyptic frightener The Domestics, Brad Michael Elmore's Boogeyman Pop, Empathy Inc., the ghost story Malicious, the sci-fi feature Await Further Instructions and many more. The festival begins this June 21st. And, this film event looks to be one of the best of the Summer, with more details below.
