Killer Klowns from Outer Space actor Harrod Blank

[@yungugh1-689]

Yup it was very low budget but I was invested af. The music that plays when they make their way into town is badass

[@cap10zomb]

It was produced with 2 million dollars that's not very low budget. The Evil Dead was produced for 375 thousand dollars just 7 years before Killer klowns.

[@yungugh1-689]

@@cap10zomb no way and it still looked low budget af

[@SuperTiaanBro]

@@cap10zomb 2 million dollars is pretty low budget for a film in 1988.

[@cap10zomb]

@@SuperTiaanBro I guess so. Evil dead is a much better movie and it had a fraction of that budget. 2 million sounded like a lot for a "low budget"

[@3baxcb]

​@cap10zomb You need to consider the amount of costumes, stunts, and bigger special effects when thinking about the budget for such a movie. Both The Evil Dead and Killer Klowns From Outer Space are considered low budget. It's all a matter of what is required to deliver the goods.

Those masks sound scary too wear lol

Like your first time putting on a football helmet or motorcycle helmet shyt scared me like hell 😂

Nothing wrong with wearing masks

[@Ligmanuttz]

I’d do it

[@botdfbvb]

​@@GettbaccThat's not even close to comparable. One mask is glued shut, and you could barely see out of it. The others are extremely open at the face and easy to remove.

What a cool story and such a lucky guy to show up as an extra and be permanently cemented into Hollywood history. I also had no idea they glued the mask shut on the actors. This movie has seriously only gotten better with age.

Yeah this is how cult classics are made. No matter how campy or stupid some moments are. If you put love and time to make the movie an enjoyable watching experience people will love it. Movies like this and Rocky Horror will always find an audience in each generation.

Well played sir and you are right. While this movie didn’t make a splash initially, it was so well done that it couldn’t be denied and over time people have come to appreciate just how good it was. From the set design, to the costumes, to the music. It’s all played to the hilt.

[@revolvermaster4939]

[@darkskull8938]

@@gregmeyer1805 how would a single player story work here

[@gregmeyer1805]

@@darkskull8938 Easy. All of the lore and the imagination of the film is already established. Perhaps the clown planet sends an even bigger mothership/ circus tent to finish what the original ship failed to do. It could pick up immediately in 1988 back in Crescent Cove. It could be first or third person, survival horror with all the zaniness of the film. Even the national guard could get involved to show how grand a scale it has become. Mike, Debbie, Dave, the Terenzi Brothers, could all be included in some form or another. And I'm just spitballing ideas here. Obviously a narrative adventure would require a bigger budget, story specs and scripts that require much more work then throwing a bunch of people into a map and having them fight it out. My opinion of course.
