The Day the Clown Cried (1972)
I WISH I could see this one!
I am fascinated by this film and the story behind it.
Allegedly Lewis has the only copy (or copies) in existence.
It is unknown who is truly keeping the film under raps. Some believe Lewis hides the film because of the reaction he received to it. Some believer O'Brien will not accept payment in any way to sign over the rights. What's certain is that neither will discuss it publicly.
Either way it is likely we will never be fortunate (or unfortunate) enough to see it like Harry Shearer and other noted exceptions.
For Joan O'Brien, it must have been a nightmare. She supposedly was horrified to the point of tears upon seeing one screening of the film.
I suppose it could never live up to the hype of how truly awful it is.
It's probably better that the tastelessness remains in our imaginations.

Blood Circus (1987)
I am one of the few who has seen this!
I affectionately call it "The Worst Movie ever made".
I ran a test print for Mr. Rigatuso, or Bob Harris as he is known. I was a projectionist at the time. He was very excited about the movie and paid the theater to run the movie while the theatre was closed.
I managed to sit through the whole thing. It had no recognizable plot and starred his friends and family. It made very little sense and scenes and characters were injected for no apparent reason.
The most bizarre thing though, was the credits. Inexplicibly they rolled over a large baby photo of one of his kids. The music playing was written by another family member and had the refrain, "Jesus Christ was born on Christmas Day". Huh?
