"How about a little ice cream, Frank?"
—Evan, before attacking Frank

Evan MacIntyre, also known as Stilts the Clown or Evan the Clown is one of the new psychopaths who appears in Dead Rising 2: Off the Record. He is the brother of the clown Adam MacIntyre in Dead Rising.[1][2] He appears in the mission Snow Job

Location

Evan appears on the Platinum Strip between Cases 6.1 and 6.2 in front of the arena, where he has his Clown Car parked. 

Snow Job

As Frank walks near a clown car, behind him is a clown named Evan. Evan thinks Frank is a customer who wants ice cream. Frank exclaims he doesn't think he will sell a lot of ice cream "right now" and he will not get in his car. A signed photograph of Frank West blows out of the grasp of the dead TiR Employee and lands in front of Evan. After he remembers Frank was the one who killed his brother, he then points a modified Snowball Cannon at Frank.

After a brief fight, Evan is knocked down to the ground as Frank comments on Evan and as Frank leaves, Evan then gets up revealing himself to be a dwarf. He then charges at Frank but misses. He then yells at Frank and charges at him.

After being defeated a second time, Evan stumbles to his car as he grabs his Snowball Cannon but it doesn't work. Frustrated, Evan tries to jump for his Freeze Grenades. After multiple jumps in which Evan continuously bumps into his car, a Freeze Grenade falls and lands on Evan's face. Evan exclaims in pain and says "You... scream... I... scream... We all... scream for... ice cream!" as he turns completely frozen in which Frank kicks him down and he breaks into multiple pieces.

Weapons

Evan is on stilts, with which he will kick with if Frank gets too close. He also uses a special type of Snowball Cannon. It can freeze Frank and slow him down or stop him in his tracks completely until he wiggles free. He also throws explosive canisters of liquid nitrogen at Frank. When Evan is knocked off his stilts, he attacks Frank with his bare hands.

Battle Style

  • Snowball Cannon: Evan shoots Frank with his unique variant of Snowball Cannon, capable of drastically slowing Frank down or even freezing him completely. Frank can be seen turning pale blue with this effect.
  • Stilts: Evan is on stilts, with which he will attack with if Frank gets too close. Sometimes, after succesfully freezing Frank, Evan will kick Frank with his stilts or stomp him. Both inflict similar damage, 1 health block each. When Evan is knocked off his stilts, he attacks Frank with his bare hands.
  • Bomb: Evan will throw one of his canisters, and if Frank gets too close, it will explode, causing Frank's leg to be cemented to ground with ice, and if Frank did not manage to escape in time (wiggling the stick), Evan will kick him with his stilts.
  • After chunking off a portion of his health (most likely a half or more), Evan falls from his stilts. He will attack Frank barehanded. Keep in mind he's the fastest psychopath when fighting barehanded, so dodge his attacks often and hit him with a low strike (the jump attack from the Defiler or the skill move Front Kick usually works).
  • Tackle: Evan will tackle Frank, capable of knocking him to the ground. After the attack connects, he will taunt Frank for a moment, this can be exploited by counterattacking him.
  • Grapple: Evan will jump on Frank's head and punch him on the head. To escape this grapple, the player must wiggle the stick and if succeeded, Frank will retaliate by kicking him away.

Trivia

  • Since his only appearance is in a non-canon game it's unknown if he actually exists in the Dead Rising universe. If he was in Fortune City during the original Dead Rising 2, he might not have survived or has yet to even truly appear in the Dead Rising series. 
  • Judging by his intro cutscene and how he desires revenge against Frank West for the death of Adam, he may not of been aware of Adam's insanity, the fact that Adam was killed in self defense or the fact he had a hostage with him but it's possible that the witness only saw the fight without knowing the reasons behind it. 
  • Both Evan and his brother have 4-lettered names, which in both cases consists of two vowels and two consonants in an identical order.
  • His picture can be seen on the back of the Clown Car, which is available to drive and is found around Uranus Zone.
  • Evan is the first dwarf character in any Dead Rising game.
  • Evan is the first psychopath in the Dead Rising series to have an on-going grudge against Frank.
  • During the second cutscene (when he loses the stilts) "Mall Music 3" from the first Dead Rising will play and Frank will be whistling it.
  • Out of all the psychopaths in the series (other than Snowflake), Evan is the fastest on-foot psychopath (after he loses his stilts). However, Chuck and Leon also were one of the fastest, as they used slicecycles.
  • During the fight, one of Evan's quips is "Now YOU'RE the walking punchline!" His brother called himself a "walking punchline" in Dead Rising.
  • Evan wears a Servbot patch on his clothes, much like his brother Adam (who wears an identical pin) from Dead Rising.
  • He is also one of the few psychopaths to be biologically related to another psychopath. The others being Isabela and Carlito Keyes, Amber and Crystal Bailey and Roger, Jack, and Thomas Hall. However, he and his brother are the only psychopaths to not be fought in the same game as their relatives.
  • Evan was 35 when he fought Frank, which is the same age his brother Adam was when he fought Frank.
  • Both didn't have any desire to injure Frank until he did something that upset them. For Adam, this was attempting to stop the Space Rider rollercoaster, and for Evan, this was because Frank killed Adam. 
  • In the final cutscene, he attempts to reach the canisters of liquid nitrogen that are resting on top his clown car, although he has one remaining on his belt. It is possible that it was empty, or that he simply overlooked it. He might have also been simply reaching to grab more canisters.
    Evan

    Evan has a nitroglycerin canister clipped onto his belt.

  • Evan (after he loses his stilts), Sullivan (if you get close enough to him), Red, Ted Smith, Snowflake, Jherii Gallo, Brock Mason, Gary Finkel, Sgt. Dwight Boykin and General Hemlock are the only psychopaths in the series that fight with their bare hands.
  • Evan called Frank as a "young man", even though Frank is 6 years older than him, in contrast to his brother Adam, who called Frank "gramps", even though he was one year younger than him.
  • There is an absurd glitch that can happen during the second part of the boss fight, though quite rare. Evan will attempt to grab onto you while a survivor gets in his way. If done right, he'll glitch through the survivor, causing them to stand in a bent over position, and he'll be on your head, attempting to hurt you. However, you won't get the action to kick him off, and you'll be able to roam around the area while he is still on your head. You wont lose health, survivors won't be able to hurt him, and the only way to get rid of him is by going to another area. If you decide to kill the glitched survivor, they will still be in the bent position, and they will appear as Located in the notebook.
  • Although Evan and Adam are brothers, they are actually very different. Adam is tall while Evan is short (uses stilts to appear tall), Adam mainly uses fire weapons while Evan mainly uses ice weapons, Adam mainly uses melee weapons and Evan mainly uses range weapons, Adam calls Frank "gramps" and Evan calls Frank "young man", Adam's voice is high pitched whilst Evan's voice is more deeper and Adam is an entertainer while Evan is a salesman.
  • Using fire-related weapons can burn Evan's stilts and give you a few seconds to attack him.
  • Evan's death is similar to his brother's death as when they are dying (from being cut up by the chainsaws or freezing to death), their voices become very deep.
  • Evan has a "rolleyes" emoticon on the front right side of his vest. In promotional images, this appears to be a three-dimensional object,[3] while in the cutscenes it seems to be printed on the vest.[4]
  • Evan is voiced by Gabe Kouth, the real life brother of Sam Vincent, who voiced Carl Schliff.
  • Evan's character design seems to be based on Violator from the Spawn comic series due to the fact that they are both dwarf sized, are themed around clowns, wear blue face paint and have similar hairstyles. 
  • For some strange reason, Evan's notebook portrait seems to be messed up. The left side of his hair is spiked up, he's cross eyed, and his upper teeth are clipping through his mouth. As he appears to be in Chuck/Franks default stance, it's likely they used a normal male skeleton for his portrait. Why they did this is unknown.
  • The actor who voiced him is known for his role as Victor Criss in the film adaptation of Stephen King's It, which also included a psychotic killer clown as an antagonist.
