Rubber Nose Massacre

By Alan Ng | March 30, 2026

Sam Gaffin’s Rubber Nose Massacre, the first release under the Night Flight Pictures imprint, is a story of killer clowns and the Florida men willing to hunt them down. We open in backwoods Florida, where a psychopathic serial killer clown has been terrorizing the community. The said clown has been abducting young women, and the body count keeps climbing with no sign of anyone stepping up to stop him. The authorities are nowhere to be found, leaving the neighborhood at the mercy of the face-painted killer.

Into this mess stumble Everett (Samuel Williams) and Diesel (Charles Harris), two self-appointed Florida Man vigilantes who decide to take justice into their own hands. When a suspicious new neighbor moves in next door — one with an unsettling resemblance to the killer clown — Everett and Diesel convince themselves they’ve found their man. Without a badge, a plan, or much of a brain between them, the two launch their own amateur investigation.

Their half-baked detective work quickly spirals into full-blown chaos. It starts with breaking into their neighbor’s home and stumbling upon what appears to be an underground clown group meeting. The deeper Everett and Diesel dig, the more blood-soaked and dangerous things become.

Everett (Samuel Williams) is surrounded by killer clowns in Rubber Nose Massacre.

“…a story of killer clowns and the Florida men willing to hunt them down.”

Rubber Nose Massacre is a film for a very specific audience. If you like clowns, sexy women in danger, and Big Top gore, this is your movie. The killer clown genre is alive and well, and Sam Gaffin’s film dives headfirst into it with the unapologetic flair of a classic B-horror picture — low budget and proud of it.

What’s surprising is where the money actually went. Despite the shoestring feel, the clown makeup, costumes, and gags got all the love. The filmmakers made a deliberate choice, and the cast and crew are completely game for it. They lean in hard. Each kidnapping plays out as its own comedy sketch, and the whole thing lands as bloody, silly fun. Think Full Moon Features with a Florida Man twist.

The script isn’t trying to win awards. It exists for one reason: to give the killer clown an excuse to snatch up girls, put them in danger, and kill everyone who tries to rescue them. Rubber Nose Massacre leans more toward comedy than outright gore, and every scene lands somewhere between a clown bit, a slasher riff, and a send-up of redneck Florida culture.

In the end, Sam Gaffin’s Rubber Nose Massacre delivers exactly what it promises — no more, no less. It’s bloody, it’s silly, and this clown cabal has absolutely no regrets about either.
