      It's not even bad, though. They took a bizarre and goofy premise and ran with it brilliantly. They were clever throughout, subverted expectations all over the place, played with genre tropes; what more could you ask for?
      There's a difference between a bad movie and deliberately-trashy one (no disrespect intended to KKfOS; "trashy" can be smart and a lot of fun!). I'm almost not sure it's a b-movie, either, as b-movies are defined by their limited budgets. KKfOS kinda is, too, but the cheesiness of some of the props and sets seems almost deliberately calculated to work with the premise. I don't think KKfOS would be nearly as fun if the effects were slick.

    Honestly, I love this movie. It's one of those weird 80's horror-comedies with a whacky but unique concept, but I think it's really good for what it is.
    It doesn't try to be too serious and it has some genuinely creepy parts as well, like the scene with officer Mooney as Jumbo's puppet.
    Maybe I'm being a bit biased as this movie holds a nostalgic value to me (I saw it for the first time when I was 10, over a decade ago now), but it left a lasting impact on me, and I find myself coming back to it every now and then. Definitely a comfort movie for me, and perfect for the fall/Halloween season.
    I also noticed you said that you haven't seen Police Academy, and I'd recommend watching it! It's very 80's humor, but definitely one of my other comfort movies.

    The score for Killer Klowns From Outer Space was composed by John Massari, and the title song "Killer Klowns" was written and performed by the American punk rock band the Dickies and was released on their album 'Killer Klowns from Outer Space' in 1988.

There was even talks of a Sequel,Return Of The Killer Klowns From Outer Space in 3D, where the lead character Mike Tobacco, was going to be a conspiracy theorist, trying to prove that the Klowns might come back for revenge, until a group of teens learn he was right. They them team up with Mike to fight back against the Klowns. However, it's been put on hold, but we might even get a spin off TV series on SYFY soon.

There are bits that I find scarry shocking and disturbing, like the klown drinking blood through the crazy straw, the giant klown, those worm klowns, the mere appearance of the klowns in general, the pie-pelted guy melting, and the klown with the big concealed mallet attempting to draw the little girl. Sure, it's ABSURD but THAT doesn't exclude frightening (not in my book at least).

    My 3rd favorite movie of all time after Godzilla (1954) and Friday the 13th (1980).
    My favorite parts are when we see the klowns trap Debbie in a giant balloon, along with other girls trapped in balloons too' yeah all of them didn't make it when the ship blew up, that's the only sad part there!
    But since we didn't get to see any of them it not so bad' as for some of your questions there's no sequel yet but they've been trying, I'm hoping they will have one ready to go in 2023 which will mark the 35th anniversary since the first one.
    As to what the budget was for the film' it cost them around give or take about $2 million.
    If you wish to find out more they got special features on their dvd' lots of good stuff.

    Dead Alive (1992) is a great horror/comedy and was directed by Peter Jackson before he did The Lord of the Rings movies.

    John Vernon played Mooney. He was a very good character actor who had worked with John Wayne and Clint Eastwood. He was dean Wermer in Animal House which was a very iconic role as the always irritated, aggravated dean. He was the Star power behind this film and gave it some credibility.

    The Chiodo Brothers also created the "Critters" for the saga of the same name (for what it´s worth, Part 2´s my favourite). Also, as a side note, this week in my podcast we were talking about "To Sir, With Love" with Sidney Poitier, and mentioned the fact that Lulu sings the theme tune, and thus, the title, about 50 times in the movie. Then, out of nowhere, despite my podcast being in Spanish, I exclaimed "Hey, THAT´s the name of the MOOOOVIE!". Cue me having to explain Reel Reviews With Jen. So, highly unlikely, but if you suddenly get an influx of Spanish viewers, that´ll have been me!

    My favorite character in Killer Klowns From Outer Space is Debbie Stone because I think she looks beautiful and is also not evil. My least favorite characters in Killer Klowns From Outer Space are the Killer Klowns and Curtis Mooney because they're evil. My least favorite part in Killer Klowns From Outer Space is the part where the girl who I think looks beautiful dies after thinking the Klowns gave her real pizza because I don't like it when girls who I think look beautiful dies.

    Have you never seen "Animal House"? John Vernon (office Mooney) plays the dean of the college, his most iconic role.

    The striped tubes probably weren’t pool noodles - I don’t think those had been invented yet.
    There are so many horror movies and horror-comedies with wacky concepts that just don't follow thru, so it’s great to something like Killer Klowns that makes the most of its concept with barrels of creativity. Killer Klowns is also a testament to the power of committing to the bit, in both horror and comedy - taking something absurd and treating it (relatively) seriously can produce some really funny or unnerving stuff. And Klowns is mainly a komedy, but…the klowns are still pretty unsettling. Also I love that they use the ancient aliens theory to explain clowns. 😂
    For another weird horror comedy, Terrovision would probably make good reaction fodder.

    I'm one of the people who mentioned to watch this movie. I knew it was exactly what you were looking for. Another movie to look for is Return of the Killer Tomatoes! 1988. Its a sequel to Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. (AOTKT) Attack is... well...different. Hokey and really, really very low budget. The sequel is 100% better and has John Astin (Gomez from the Adams Family TV show) and George Clooney, yes that George Clooney. If you want something with a little meat on the bones try Return of the Living Dead. Its gory but also has a great cast. Be warned it is rated R but such a top rated classic and funny!

      @@mikesilva3868 Return of the Killer Tomatoes is certainly different. The acting is waaay over the top. Maybe it was me that i did not like the original..when i saw it in the 80s i was more likely expecting something else. Still cant go wrong with John Astin. He was having fun and hamming it up in this movie!

    Royal Dano (the old man with the dog) was famous for his role as "Elijah" in MOBY DICK (1956) which also starred Gregory Peck, Orson Welles. and Richard Basehart. His role was so different from this and his role in GHOULIES II (1986) you wouldn't believe it unless you saw it. So here: ruclips.net/video/o5r3g5zhKIM/видео.html to compare. He was one of our great character actors and he passed away on May 15, 1994.
    Incidentally, the lines Elijah speaks in the movie are pure Ray Bradbury. Though the character appears in Melville's book (of course he does look up Ahab and Elijah in the Bible) his lines are more gibberish.
    Which may explain why Bradbury wanted him to play the lightning rod salesman in the film version of his novel SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES (1983)
    And GOT him! ruclips.net/video/MEaGTwJrBKk/видео.html
