Killer Klowns from Outer Space has long been one of my favorite horror movies. It’s low budget and very over the top, but I find it charming and entertaining to watch clowns wrap people in cotton candy cocoons that burn their flesh off.

A solid script and a killer score by John Massari prevent Killer Klowns from fading into obscurity like a lot of 80s horror.

The thing that stands out most about Killer Klowns From Outer Space is the level of creativity and commitment to the bit.
