When I saw this on the shelf at my local video store, I thought, "Oh, it's Wes Craven, the director of Scream, one of the best films of the 1990s, and it's a horror as well. It's got to be good!" How wrong could a young lad be? This was a horror but for all the wrong reasons. I do not think I have ever been more bored in my entire life. You can really overdose on the hammy acting, the extremely unscary clown and the annoying music in the background. It has a plot that was so thin and lame that you could hardly be aware of its existence at all. For most horror films that I watch, you can guarantee that they won't scare me, but at least they are funny!! "Carnival of Souls was not even that. It was pitiful and had no redeeming qualities at all, apart from the end credits when the pain was all over. I have watched some garbage in my time so it is unbelievable to hear myself say that this is the worst film I have ever seen.If someone paid me to watch this film again, I think I would prefer to keep my sanity.
