October Horror Challenge - Killer Klowns From Outer Space (1988)

Because the movie I'm watching tomorrow is so heavy, I wanted something life to "Sci-Fi Horror" so I went with Killer Klowns From Outer Space.

Plot

Mike, a teen, and his friends witness a shooting star crash outside of their small town. They investigate and find that it's actually a space ship inhabited by horrifying alien Klowns. They do their best to warn the authorities and save their town.

Review

Confession time... this movie is one of the reasons I was afraid of horror movies until I was in my early 20's. I saw the dinosaur shadow puppet scene on HBO as a kid and it scarred me. However, today I think this movie is a well-crafted loving send up of retro-sci-fi horror covered in Klown makeup. The movie is genuinely creepy, despite also being goofy as Hell. The costume and set designs are fantastic. There are thrills, chills, and laughs to be had if you check this one out. 

The Klowns are still around. Spirit Halloween creates merchandise based on the property(product page). There is a new asymmetrical horror game coming out (watch here), a short film (watch here) was released a few years ago, and the creators would love to do a series (read more here).
