The Chiodo Brothers talk about the making of this b-movie classic. Including the original opening, how they first came up with the idea, other deleted scenes, why they were deleted, how they made the Klown's explode, the Cocoon gun, the and balloon gag They also talk about their influences and why they love making monster movies, as well as show how the dog wouldn't follow directions. I would have liked to hear more about the actors and what they would like to do in a sequel though. This 21 minute featurette can be found on MGM's 'Midnight Movies' Special Edition DVD of "Killer Klowns from Outer Space".

Cheap but Entertaining

The Making of 'Killer Klowns' (2001)

*** (out of 4)

Charles, Edward and Stephen Chiodo, aka The Chiodo Brothers, are interviewed for this twenty-one minute featurette, which has them taking a look back at the making of their cult classic KILLER KLOWNS FROM OUTER SPACE. I will admit right up front that this featurette had a very low-rent feel to it and it just felt extremely cheap. With that said, there's a lot of behind-the-scenes footage that was shot on the set and I'm sure fans will love seeing this. It was also fun getting to hear from the three men as they discuss the budget, the original alternate opening sequence as well as other inspirations for the movie. Again, if you're looking for something great then this here is certainly not that but there's enough good stuff here to make it worth watching.
