Clayface
from Messed Up Movies Hosted by Misfit Parade
DC's Clayface delivers gruesome transformations, practical effects, and a tragic Batman villain origin story. But does it work as a horror movie? This week on New Movie Monday, our Clayface review splits the crew between a surprisingly enthusiastic recommendation and serious frustration. Griffey, Heath, Sam, and Nick dig into the film's R-rated body horror, its grimy vision of Gotham, and the influence of David Cronenberg's The Fly. We debate whether Matt Hagen's transformation delivers the emotional punch it needs, how the romance affects the pacing, and whether Clayface succeeds as a standalone horror story. Plus: the airplane bathroom scene that had us squirming, the grotesque effects that won us over, and an ending that gives us plenty to argue about. ⚠️ Full spoilers for Clayface. Did Clayface deliver the horror you wanted, or did the story hold it back? Share your review and rating in the comments. Subscribe for New Movie Monday reviews and our Friday movie drafts.
