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.
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
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.
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.
