Most people know Dailymotion has tons of great web series, and we pride ourselves in finding some of the best creative video talent out there. That being said, premiering today is our newest web series – “The Funny Man.”

Sorry comedy fans, it’s not actually funny, at all. It’s a psychological horror thriller web series in the vein of PSYCHO, featuring a compelling villain who videotapes his victims, demanding that they say something funny on camera just prior to killing them. The murder scenes bring viewers into the deranged mindset of a psychopath, and the violence is realistically chaotic and painful.

Sounds like fun – am I right?

“The Funny Man” is written and directed by Jake Barsha (creator of EUGENE) and produced by Danny Cahn A.C.E., president of The Motion Picture Editors Guild. The ten-episode series will premiere today, Oct 25th, with new episodes running daily, through Halloween, until Nov 5th.

The cast includes Leslie Easterbrook (The Devil’s Rejects, Halloween), Nikki Tomlinson (Date Night), Shaun Gerardo (X-Men: First Class, Fast and Furious, The Kingdom), Ryan Reyes (Eugene), Abby Wathen, and Domiziano Arcangeli.
