Help me please with the title of this movie. My brother & I watched this movie back in the late 80's early 90's but, I can only remember bits & pieces of it. My brother said it was the scariest movie he ever saw. A man dressed up like a jester (with black finger nails & triangles under the eyes) trying to take revenge on someone. There's a face drawn out on the kitchen floor that looks just like the man in the jester suit.These men he's trying to get back at try everything to kill him but, he just doesn't seem to die. Till, finally they end up killing him putting him in a trash bag ( or something) cleaning up the picture of him on the floor & throwing him in the river. The scene cuts to the next day with some fishermen in this river. One of them hooks on to something pulls on it and it's the jesters body that comes floating to the surface out of the bag. The final clip of the movie is there's a little boy squating down with his back toward the camera and his mother calls to him & when he turns towards the camera he has black nails, triangles under the eyes like the jestered man and they flash to the kitchen to where the boys face is now drawn out on the kitchen floor and the credits roll with this image as it's background. Please help me with the title to this movie

IMDb synopsis:
A modern-day politician is faced with an incomprehensible in this mystical fantasy. Senator Rast is a very powerful man, but his is nothing compared to the extraordinary power of the enigmatic stranger who mysteriously comes to visit him. Possessing uncanny magical prowess and miraculous psychic abilities, the peculiar but seemingly benevolent visitor quickly gains a spellbinding hold over the senator and his family. But, a power-lusting political backer also is vying for control over the up-and-coming senator, and he would kill the influential stranger without question for that power. However, he and the senator are about to be enlightened.
