I would pre-order two copies (if I had the money). Hopefully the DVD will sell enough copies to show MGM that there is a cult following for this film and it will let the brothers make a sequel to Killer Klowns. Hopefully on the big screen and not direct to video (not such a bad thing really... look at Tremors 2: Aftershocks) or on television as I'd love to see the Klowns on the biggest screen in Vegas.

Well if you were the head of MGM and the Chiodo brothers came up to you wanting to do to a sequel to their film that didn't sell well enough for you on DVD or VHS, would you allow them to do a sequel?

What in the world does that have to do with sending a sealed copy for signing instead of an opened one?

 

[Todd Terwilliger]

Scott,
I also have a space on my shelf reserved for Klowns, Krull, and BBTS. How sick is that?

Unless everyone bought a second copy (highly unlikely, I think)to send unopened, how is this going to affect the quantity sold?
I'd love to get mine signed, bur is it worth another $10 plus freight? Not to me.

To encourage people to buy a second copy, of course. More copies sold = better chance for MGM to put some cash towards a sequel.

Hey Scott!! Remember me?...I was the big guy at Scooterpalooza!! No, I havent picked it up....yet!! I totally agree with you on this film and was real excited
when I knew it was coming. The only problem was last
weeks releases cost me 147.00!! It was a REAL hard week
for DVD's!! I am sure the same guys that snaged this one
had to grab Scanners, The Howling, Carrie, Dressed to Kill
and...see what I mean?? Next month is going to REALLY
break my wallet. Oh, Killer Klowns rocks!!

 

[Scott Weinberg]

Yo, Darrin! What's up, man? Based on our conversations, I'm betting that Killer Klowns is right up your alley, if perhaps a bit gore-free for your tastes!

Just watched this with a buddy for the first time last night. I really enjoyed it, as did he. This will look nice on the shelf, sitting right next to C.H.U.D.

I bought mine over the weekend and loved it. It's still as cool and cheesy as it was back then. Great extras on this disk. Anybody who loves b titles/cult films should pick this one up since it's only $10.
I talked to a bunch of my friends about the movie (which I thought they would hate it) and all of them considered it a classic. That made my day.

 

[Todd Terwilliger]

Damn it, I have C.H.U.D. too! What is wrong with me?
By the way, the commentary on CHUD is hilarious.

I am also guilty of owning this fine art!

But I love this movie, I remember seeing it when I was 4 (i'm young) and I've seen in about 100 times since, I swear. Most of the time when it was on the Si Fi channel.
I hope the sequel pans out, it'll be awsome!

I've never seen this "classic", but based mainly on this thread (and the $9.98 price tag) I snagged this at Best Buy tonight. I have to admit, the kicker was the tag line "In Space No One Can Eat Ice Cream"!!
I hold all of you responsible!

Ok, I just finished watching this movie. Having never seen it before, it's pretty terrible, but in a good way.
It is clever how they used the clown related items.
It is a fun movie, if you want to watch something bad.
The only other thing I watched was the trailer. I will watch the other things later on Wednesday.

The Easter eggs on here show up after you let the menu screen play through, I think 5 times. Not sure though. I walked out of the room for a sec after putting the disc in and came back to a menu screen that said "Easter Eggs" at the top.
Two options showed up:
"Klown Auditions" - very entertaining featurette.
The other is a brief clip where actor John Vernon says "killer clowns from outer space, holy smoke!" instead of "killer clowns from outer space, holy shit!" I guess it's from the TV version. It was pretty funny.
You can also find these on the Extra Features menu by highlighting on two of the pieces of popcorn to the right.
Just thought I'd share these discoveries I made. Nobody had mentioned them yet.

Oh yeah, are you kidding, I love this film! Seen it countless times in the eighties, and now on this great format! I especially love John Vernon as Chief Mooney "Well, what the god damn de do!" Classic!
