If our collective fear regarding clowns had to begin somewhere, then doesn't it stand to reason that this little film knew it first? On this day in 1988 (in Canada and the U.S.), Killer Klowns From Outer Space delivered a fright worth laughing at ... and more! Written (in part) and directed by Stephen Chiodo, the film starred Grant Cramer, Suzanne Snyder, John Allen Nelson, and others. According to our friends at IMDB.com, here's the plot summary:
"Aliens who look like clowns come from outer space and terrorize a small town."
For the record:
At the 1990 Saturn Awards, Killer Klowns received nominations in the categories of 'Best Costumes' and 'Best Music.'
