Killers Klowns from Outer Space gets 35th anniversary 4K Ultra HD release

April 17, 2024 by Amie Cranswick

In celebration of the 35th anniversary of Killer Klowns From Outer Space, Shout! Factory has announced a new 4K Ultra HD release of the cult 1988 horror-comedy; check out the cover artwork and details below…

Finally the truth about clowns is out! Beneath their smirky sinister grins and wildly patterned clothes are clever killers from out of this world. The “juxtaposition of their toy-store arsenal and malevolent intent proves to be a tasty combination” (Los Angeles Times) in this killer entertainment that will leave you fearing these big-top creatures for good.

A spaceship — looking like a circus tent — lands in a field near a small town, signaling the attack of deviant, red-nosed, balloon-twisting psychos from another world who plan to annihilate mankind — by turning people into cotton candy! Luckily, the town’s teen citizenry decides to fight back and teach the cosmic bozos a lesson. But these klowns are no klutzes, turning popcorn, peanuts and caramel corn into playful — but deadly — weapons of madcap destruction and mayhem!
