Adam the Clown

Adam the Clown is a psychotic clown that acts as a boss in the videogame Dead Rising - he is a homicidal maniac who juggles active chainsaws and has toxic-gas filled balloons which he tosses at the protagonist while cackling madly. The reason for Adam's insanity is a tragic one, once a happy clown he was driven over the edge when he witnessed the children he had entertained being killed by zombies: unable to cope he had the children's corpses put on the Space Ride and plays it constantly, killing anyone who tries to turn the ride off.

After battling Adam the player is greeted to one of the game's more disturbing death scenes as Adam falls over, cackling madly as he is disembowled by his own chainsaws.
