11. Beanie (Old School, 2003)
The Clown: Suburban dad becomes weirdo clown with frizzy orange wig, red nose and polka dot nightmare of a suit.
Why He’s Funny: Give him credit for trying – Bernard “Beanie” Campbell really wants his kids to have the best birthday party even. And it’s Vince Vaughn in a clown suit – pure bitter genius.
Why He’s Terrifying: Seeing your father-as-clown smoking, drinking and talking business. At your own birthday party. No, that’s not going to screw his child up for life. At all…

I thought this was a great performance by Williams and when you look at the subject matter it was so well thought and delivered by him

You forgot the scariest looking clown of all time (well maybe after Tim Curry's Pennywise) : the living dead clown from George A. Romero's Day of the Dead. He's only on screen for a coupla frames but he scared the bejesus out of me when I was a kid.
