Step aside Pennywise… These Killer Klowns from Outer Space are outta this world – literally! – and they’re packing deadly popcorn guns and cotton candy cocoons!

When Mike and his girlfriend Debbie warn the local police that a gang of homicidal alien-clowns have landed in the nearby area (in a spaceship shaped like a circus big-top, no less), the cops are naturally sceptical. Before long however, reports are coming in from other anxious residents detailing similar run-ins with the large-shoed assailants. There can no longer be any doubt – the Killer Klowns from Outer Space are here, and they’re out to turn the Earth’s population into candy floss!

Written and produced by the Chiodo brothers – knowns for their work on a host of special-effects laden hits such as Team America: World Police and the Critters movies – Killer Klowns from Outer Space is a cinematic experience unparalleled in this galaxy, now newly restored by Arrow Video for this stellar edition.

And all this time we thought Scream Factory was going to release this. Looks like a solid package.

[Jay Mammoth]

Yep, getting it.

Oh they will, just give it some time

[movieben1138]

As John Vernon would say, "Well, whoop-de-goddamn-de-doo!"

[Fairfax]

What a great cover.

[jmb1381]

I'll definitely be double dipping for this one!!!

[GODHOOD]

Could have been better as a steelbook but it is a brand new transfer so I'll likely buy it.

[WaverBoy]

Welcome news, but it looks like the Dickies music video for the theme song is still MIA...??? Do we really still need to hold on to the VHS?

[meglos]

I love this movie but will wait for reviews to upgrade. I'd like to see Arrow start to release 4k discs which would make the upgrade decision easier for this movie, Ronin, and A Fish Called Wanda.

Not gonna happen for a while (If at all with some indie labels).

[El_Fez]

Well, looks like I'll be double-dipping!

[Respectjuice]

Looks like I'll be buying this again.

Come on man! I just bought the blu for this last month and haven't even gotten around to watching it yet. I can't imagine double-dipping on this...but per usual I am going to keep track of this thread, read all the comments and slowly but surely get sucked into it.

Yea, I hate the cover on that release (the one I just bought).

[meremortal]

Loving all these collector's releases of cult movies.

[GeoffOliver]

I knew it was only a matter of time for this to get picked up by someone. Was expecting it to be Scream Factory, but I’ll still gladly get this. I’m holding out on MGM’s Last House on the Left BD for the same reason.

[JMDiaz718]

I prefer this poster..........



This one is awesome too. I think it's from England.

I also want to see if this is going to be region free. Pretty good movie, actually creepy in some spots.
