About this episode
The twelfth episode of our season on the awesome movie year of 1992 features our future cult classic pick, Bobcat Goldthwait’s Shakes the Clown . Written and directed by Bobcat Goldthwait and starring Goldthwait, Julie Brown, Tom Kenny, Blake Clark and Adam Sandler, Shakes the Clown was a critical and commercial failure that has since been reappraised and appreciated by a cult audience. The contemporary reviews quoted in this episode come from Roger Ebert ( https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/shakes-the-clown-1992 ), Marc Savlov in the Austin Chronicle ( https://www.austinchronicle.com/events/film/1992-04-24/138820/ ), and Chris Hicks in the Deseret News ( https://www.deseret.com/1992/7/24/18996089/shake-any-impulse-to-go-see-tasteless-shakes-the-clown ).
