A place for lovers of B movies to come together and talk about them.

Rules:

  1. Be most excellent to one another. (Don't be a jerk)
  2. Try not to repost movies that have already been posted. (If it has been over 12 months feel free to repost)
  3. If posting links for people to watch the movies let them be legal ones. (Free is best but not when it's shady, you dig?)
  4. Have fun and enjoy all the awesomeness that B movies can bring you.

When teenagers Mike and Debbie see a comet crash outside of their sleepy town, they go to investigate and discover a troop of murderous aliens who look like circus clowns.

This is unironically one of my favorite movies. I especially like showing it to people who have never seen it before. It's so much fun.

I watched this when I was wayyyyy too young and couldn't understand what was happening, and it's the one of the big reasons for my lifelong fear of clowns.

Now I like to watch it every Halloween even though I am still freaked out by clowns lol

Easily one of my Halloween staples. Arguably it still holds up well to this day.

Fun fact: some of the clown costumes were reused a few years later in another great Halloween film, Ernest Scared Stupid (1991).

My daughter (13) loves Killer Klowns from Outer Space. I just bought her a Killer Klowns shirt which I had to make her take off after two days because she's a teenager. But I guess that shows how much she loves it.

Great theme song by The Dickies too.

I watched his a few years back after much insisting from a friend. Actually, oddly, good.

The thing is, if you're looking for a horror movie this isn't it. If you're looking for something profoundly stupid and hilarious this is the best movie in the world.

It's kinda your fault if you think a movie called Killer Clowns from Outer Space is gonna be scary. Same with Attack of the Killer Tomatoes.

[–] Algaroth@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Absolutely. This movie lives up to the poster.

The theme song is a complete jam as well.

[–] xyguy@startrek.website 2 points 1 year ago

Love all the practical effects. The tone is a little all over the place though.

The police chief is the best mean authority figure in any movie.
