1 year agoI love horror comedies [Killer Klowns from Outer Space
](https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0095444/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk) is a classic and a must see.
Fun fact: the Chiodo brothers did the creature effects for both KKfOS and [Ernest Scared Stupid
](https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0101821/) They even refused some of the costumes in Ernest: Killer Klowns into trolls! Such a good movie.
My final rant will be about Sir Peter Jackson’s earlier work. Dead Alive (aka Braindead) is a movie from 1992 that absolutely blew me away. It is also streaming free on YouTube! It has some of the most fun/disgusting practical effects I have ever seen. What a wild ride. Would recommend to anyone who can find body horror amusing. 10/10
Here you go. Enjoy being sad together.
