January 12, 2012This is how you make a movie that is supposed to be bad, enjoyable. Spoofs and satires of the past ten years need to take a good long look into the mirror and ask themselves why they didn't use alien killer klowns for their premise instead of whatever lame brained ideal they came... read more

July 25, 2011Much more entertaining than I expected. I'd heard so many strange comments about this one, I finally had to check it out. Glad I did. These clowns are pretty damn scary, for real, and even if this falls in the Below "B" category, it's worth watching.

June 13, 2011Hey look, it's Christopher Titus! If you rent a movie called Killer Klowns from Outer Space, you deserve exactly what's coming to you. If you don't like stupid movies, stay away from this one. I for one, actually DO like stupid movies though, and this one is a lot of fun. It's an... read more

May 13, 2011The title sums this one up perfect. Yeah it's silly, cheesy and childish and it really depends on your taste and humour whether you enjoy this or not. I thought it was good amusing fun, never a dull moment and it's one to have a late night laugh with. The alien "Klowns" did look ... read more

March 12, 2011So horrendously bad, it's fantastically hilarious and I love it! It's literally what the title says, so that will give you a good idea of how crazy this movie is.

November 23, 2010With a title like Killer Klowns From Outer Space you know you're in for something special. Invading aliens done up as clowns land by a town and start killing the local towns people with cotton candy ray guns and guns that shoot popcorn. The film is quite original and is a fun one... read more

October 11, 2010This movie is about alien clowns here from space to harvest people in cotton candy cocoons. It's an 80's cult classic, fun and who doesn't like clowns as killers?!

August 18, 2010Alien clowns arrive in a flying circus tent armed with popcorn guns and a penchant for wrapping victims in cotton candy. Intentionally outrageous and completely silly.

November 25, 2009"See a rubber nose on a painted face, bringing genocide to the human race, It's time to take a ride, on a nightmare merry go round, You'll be dead on arrival, from the likes of the Killer Klowns from outer space"

November 14, 2009The title pretty much says it all; killer klowns invade earth and disturb teenagers' make-out sessions. The one joke premise is enough to turn it from a formula yawner into something watchable and reasonably entertaining, if lightweight.

It's a one-gag movie, but while some of the iterations of that gag are about as hilarious as a squirt in the face from a plastic flower, a few are genuinely rib-tickling. Full Review

The title says it all...and is the only reason to see this misfire.

Andrew L. Urban, Urban Cinefile
This krazy, kooky movie strings together the creature feature with the alien movie, and pumps it full of dark humour Full Review

Warped fun with memorably weird ideas, effects and costumes
