Yeah probably better to set a timer on those hangs and then just close your eyes and go inside your own head. I tend to try that with all of my fascia stretching I find I can get into it better. Also if you can, try to keep your face relaxed. It relaxes something in you when you relax your face instead of clenching or grimacing and the like.

So far I am an hour in (30 minute increments on bike)... agreeing with Thomas. The clown is dorky. Maybe it will get better.

Do you have a link or template you could send me?

 

[Hyde]

I mean a movie about an evil clown is kind of inherently cheesy, or at least I wouldn’t expect too much lol

 

[MrKleen73]

So far I am an hour in (30 minute increments on bike)... agreeing with Thomas. The clown is dorky. Maybe it will get better.

Yeah it seemed they went for more gore but also made an effort to make him so absurd that he was not scary.

I mean a movie about an evil clown is kind of inherently cheesy, or at least I wouldn’t expect too much lol

Yeah, and it doesn't really have to be scary if you are already afraid of clowns... a lot are cheesy, but they tried to use more special effects for the scary here instead of relying on the clown being menacing. Did not have the creepy Steven King feel to it at all.

 

[wasme]

Shoot me an email, Ill send you the program.
