Killer Klowns has a pretty good DVD, but it's so cheap you should be able to get it and Total Recall: SE.

 

 

Here's the features...which are great for a $10 DVD

 

Audio Commentary with the Chiodo Brothers

5 Featurettes: The Chiodo Brothers & the Making of the Film, Behind-the-Scenes & On-the-Set, Komposing the Score, Visual Effects with Gene Warren Jr. and Chiodo Brothers' Earliest Films

2 Deleted Scenes with Director's Commentary

Bloopers

I'm going out to try and find this and Troll 2 on DVD this weekend.

 

I don't own enough comically bad movies.

F*ck you and your elitist attitude, Ripper.

 

I don't know about you, but when that little clown put on his boxing gloves to fight that biker I was petrified.

 

And that balloon search dog -- I never reacted to a dog's bark the same ever since...

I do admit to still having nightmares about being turned into a ventriliqist dummy by a fat clown.

Don't compare KKFOS and Troll 2. Troll 2 was made to be serious and came off as cheesy & lame. KKFOS was a satire on the UFO paranoia of the 50's.

 

I own the KKFOS DVD and the soundtrack.

Ah but did the ACTORS know that they weren't suppose to be serious. They were trying and they sucked at it. Troll just out funny-baded Klowns.

I hardly think Killer Klowns was meant to be taken seriously as a horror film, though it might spook some people who are afraid of evil clowns.

 

I don't have the DVD of it, but I do have an old factory tape. Really cool movie, great design as well for a low budget production.

I didn't see KKFOS for years until my better half got me the DVD for Christmas last year. She also got me the Dirty Harry DVD collecton (Or was it my birthday? Whatever.) Anyway, I had finished watching KKFORS one night and then put in "Dirty Harry," and there was Mooney as the mayor of San Francisco! One of the few times in my life I genuinely marked out...

Man, I saw that movie when I was NINE YEARS OLD. Imagine what a movie about homicidal clowns did to me at age nine. My family was on vacation, and since we were hella poor we stayed at what was probably THE crappiest beach hotel on the east coast. The TV's channel buttons were broken, and there was no remote. It was stuck on one channel! At one point my parents left to get food, and I was left with my sisters, brother, and grandmother. Everyone was taking a nap but me, and guess what came on TV? Oh man, when the clown punched the bikers head off I started to freak out like Al Sharpton when he's out of hair spray. I almost turned it off when the fat clown was beckoning to that little kid, but I just couldn't stop watching. The only other movie that ever scared me so badly is Carrie.
