Interview: Gitchy Director Tom Norman

By James DePaolo

Tom Norman? I am like a lot of you guys. I never heard his name before. Thirty-three minutes after watching this short called Gitchy, all I can say is trust me fans, you just started to hear about him. I have seen all the clown horror films: the good (Klown Kamp Massacre, 100 Tears, and Killer Klowns From Outer Space) and the bad... everything else. But now, a new category. The strange. A clown who kills people by tickling them to death. After the death of his parents, David has not been the same. Obsessed with the notion a clown killed his parents, he is out to prove that everyone is wrong and this clown exists. This film is so fucking strange that you cannot give it enough credit for being so original. This is more comical than bloody. And, it is so campy fun that if marketed right, this could be a cult fun after midnight film. I think you fans should seek this out, but take it from me, let us talk to the man himself. Here's a little Q&A with Tom Norman.
