His penchant for sweets and violence is equal and unmatched~ He can be friendly, usually falling into bouts of kindness to humans seemingly out of nowhere. This is often confusing to the others, as he should be built on brutality rather than compassion. This possibly has to do with his unstable mind when he remembers human memories. It changes depending on locations and situations. He has been known to grow increasingly violent in the southern parts of America, but the Klowns can't seem to understand why yet. This will require further testing. ✕✕✕-✕✕✕

A little protogen I drew for my boyfriend

Based off of the ice cream truck from Killer Klowns from Outer Space

[plushiesvstheworld]

They sure loved Killer Klowns from Outer Space !! You could say it was a blast from the past

[angeloftheodd]

Tracy, the fat character in Jojo’s Ice Cream Truck, was the first media representation I ever saw that featured a fat girl on something that resembled a date. 🍦💝 She set boundaries early on and avoided the whole clown debacle. ❌🤡 My friend found out the actress’s name is Karla Sue Krull, and this was her only acting credit. ✌️🧐 I get that this particular scene has fatphobic elements, but this fat actress made me realize that fat people can be desired by others. 😍 💖 That epiphany was mind-blowing to me as a fat kid watching Killer Klowns From Outer Space (1988) in the 90s. 🩸🤯 *Edited to include the names of the actress and character! ❤️

Killer Klowns From Outer Space deserved a sequel 💔 Such a good horror comedy

It was soo silly and just felt so personal. The concept itself is just so fun. Especially looking back on its 80s effects. It also balances in some horror effects perfectly!, where all the campyness and silliness just goes completely .

HORRIFYING, THIS SCENE WHERE HES TRYING TO LURE OUT THE LITTLE GIRL, ooo my heart dropped

I was kinda cheering cause this dude was so annoying but omg and the foreshadowing of him earlier in the movie "They might make a dummy out of you, but they are NOT gonna make a dummy out of ME"

ADAM STANHEIGHT HEADCANONS : 📼

hi hi ! here’s a few of my headcanons ! it’s not all of them but it’s the ones i have down, at the very least. 🗡️

- religious wendys / burger king eater.

- also a huge pepsi drinker, he rarely drinks anything else.

- as before, i am a tongue piercing truther, but it’s the only piercing he has. he’s scared of needles and it was a stupid thing that scott convinced him to do, he barely made it out of the healing process.

- it’s often he is rolling it around in his mouth without even realizing it, like he’s fidgeting.

- if he’s not listening to his ‘obscure’ hardcore bands, he’s listening to shit like oingo boingo. he will NOT admit it.

- he sticks around scott because he didn’t make too many friends in highschool, and he can’t stand the idea of having to start anew when it comes to the whole social scene. besides, being friends with scott has its perks (even if it means dealing with the toxicity). for example, there’s always something to do on a friday night.

- he didn’t drop out of highschool, but he did drop out of community college. he couldn’t be motivated to actually decide on what to do with his life, so he chose the only hobby he really enjoyed and made a career out of it. needless to say, his parents were not happy.

- speaking of his parents , he’s only close with his mother (kind of). his parents weren’t married, and have an odd relationship. his father is negligent, and pretty much just an asshole, while his mother cared about him enough to try and help when she could. but most of the time she stands by his fathers side, trying to play mediator.

- he only hates his father more as he sees his temper in himself. he’s angry, but he’s not sure what he’s ever exactly angry at. if anything, he’s an all around emotional guy, he just doesn’t know how to display them. he tends to blow up when overwhelmed.

- awkwardly charismatic, we can see this in the deleted ‘rockstar’ scene. it’s the weird bouts of confidence he gets, but it can so easily be torn down and his sarcastic self defense mechanism gets kicked in.

- undiagnosed autistic IDC IDC !!! his special interest is photography and biology. weirdly enough, he always had the highest grades in his biology classes.

- when he drinks he’s a lot more social, but he can get out of control really fast. an impulsive drinker if anything. he can get stupid and start fights that he definitely cannot win.

- sort of insecure when in relationships, but he doesn’t ever have the guts to speak about until he’s making snide remarks and blowing up a few days later.

- has way too much knowledge over b-list horror movies, it annoys anyone who’s watching one with him. he really enjoys killer klowns from outer space.

- a cat person, he feeds the strays outside of his apartment complex. if he knew that he could support a pet financially, he would take on in.

- very blunt with his opinions, which will also get him into a lot of trouble. if he thinks your favorite movie of artist is bad, then he’s gonna say it.

- a touch starved loser, but he’s not good at initiating it. but as soon as he gets the go ahead, there’s no boundary doubting him.

Tumblr user from-beyond’s Queer Horror rec list

Happy Pride!

I do not consider Queer Horror to exclusively mean horror with queer characters or plot points. Many of the films on this list have no explicitly queer characters, but rather deal with themes such as Sexuality and repression, isolation, othering, discrimination, self loathing or acceptance, forbidden love, and fear of discovery. They make use of things like homoeroticism, queer-coding, camp, phallic and yonic imagery, and contextually significant themes (ex: the AIDS epidemic). 

This list is by no means comprehensive as I am only including films that I personally have seen. This is just a personal rec list. I encourage you to do more research into this subgenre and discover more films. 

Final disclaimer: Many of the films on this list are “problematic”. Within the Queer Horror community, there is a lot of reclaiming and personal interpretation. If that’s something you can’t handle, then this probably isn’t this area of study for you.

Queer Directors with horror films:

Frank Henenlotter (Brain Damage, Basket Case, Frankenhooker, Bad Biology)

Clive Barker (Hellraiser series, Nightbreed)

Don Mancini (Child’s Play series)

James Wale (Frankenstein, Bride of Frankenstein, The Invisible Man)

John Water (Serial Mom, Multiple Maniacs, Pink Flamingos)

The Big Ones (these are brought up most often):

Psycho (1960)

Sleepaway Camp

The Rocky Horror Picture Show

A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge

Fright Night (1985)

Hellraiser (1987)

Finally updated Swizzle! First made in 2009 when I began communication with one of the Chiodo brothers who created Killer Klowns, Stephen said about Swizzle: Your klown character really surprised me. I didn't know what to expect judging from the fan art I've seen in the past, but your female klown is great. Twisted, scary, fun and sexy. That's a difficult combination to pull off. And you did it well. A killer smile and a killer body." This inspired me SO much as I have adored and been terrified by the movie since early childhood, so I went on to commission a mask from grandfatherladyfriend @ FA and bought a prop gun off deviantart many moons ago. I've changed her a bit since then, since Stephen said the Klowns "come from a race of slug like creatures that are a pasty white color". She has a variety of "powers", with her specialties being transformation or candy-oriented. Shrinking people with her gun and putting them in her favorite desserts, and the usual pies and cotton candy cocoons. Her giant lollipop is coated in her toxic saliva so when she beats people with it they melt into a puddle of sugary goo. One day I hope to commission an updated mask and make her outfit, props and shoes.

Killer Klowns from Outer Space and Clown Husbandry:

Qualifications: I am an avid clown lover and perhaps a bit of a clown myself. I sleep in a small circus tent and eat fresh cotton candy regularly. I am also working on my third home-made clown suit.

Anyways, with the intro done, let's get onto the meat of this.

I was recently gifted KKFOS t-shirt and I figured if I want to wear it I should at least watch the movie, right? I was apprehensive because I am a fan of sweeter clowns and putting respect on the clown name. I was worried what this movie was going to entail, but after watching it I have lots of opinions and thoughts!

Firstly, I should say that I think the movie was done very well. I am a fan of the plot and props. I enjoyed all of the references to horror movies. I enjoyed learning about how the Klowns operate and what their machinery looks like. However, I am conflicted on the killing.

I have a few proposals for the clown husbandry community to consider before writing this movie off as inappropriate:

These "Klowns" are not the clowns that we are all familiar with and deserve their own understanding as a separate creature entirely. Now, this may be the most obvious choice, but it is still worth bringing up. This theory is supported because in the movie, Mike Tabacco (the policeman) says, "They're not clowns. They're some kind of animal from another world that just look like clowns... maybe they're the ancient astronauts that came to our planet centuries ago, and our idea of clowns just comes from them." Now, I don't know if I believe that they are where our idea of clowns comes from, but I certainly could see them being a completely different species from our clowns. The Wikipedia for the movie also describes them as "a clan of evil extraterrestrials who resemble clowns". They are from space, afterall. Now, these both come directly from the source material, but I still have more thoughts on the matter.

What if they ARE clowns, but they got sick with some illness that has caused them to be blood thirsty? Now, this one might see a bit far-fetched, but we are talking about Killer Klowns from Outer Space, right? Well, this movie seems to understand lots of points about the culture of clowns: the importance of noses, love for cotton candy and popcorn, bright colors, silly noises, entertaining folks with goofy gags. So why are these Klowns killing? Let's look at some of the clowns themselves.

They have puffy and deformed skin that looks like that from an allergic reaction, they have yellowing teeth and eyes, enflamed lips, and their eyelids are droopy. These look like sick clowns!! Perhaps you might argue that they are simply scare clowns, but to that I say shame on you! Scare clowns get the same treatment as pitbulls, they are not inherently harmful, they only get that way from maltreatment. However, I don't think these Klowns are scareclowns. Scare clowns have traits like "salivation, staggering, growls and hisses and bluff aggression" as well as a diet that may consist of balloon animals and a more solitary lifestyle than other clowns (according to the fandom wiki and many husbandry tumblr accounts). But the Klowns shown in the movie (I have not interacted with the game yet) are quite normal other than the killing, they take care of balloon animal dogs,

and they are almost always seen in packs. The Klowns are often shown displaying friendly and inviting behavior before, during, and after the killings, so why are they doing them? I think that they are sick. This would also explain why the culture and lifestyle (other than the murdering) is so similar to clowns we know and love.

3. Now, this point could be seen as tied to the last point, but I think it deserves its own bullet-point. This whole movie could be a clown-loving informational piece on the dangers of sick clowns! If these truly are classic clowns that happened to get an illness that caused them to be murderous, perhaps this is an informative video on what to do and what not to do, as well as a warning to care for clowns properly. This movie is clearly made by someone who knows the intricacies of clown culture, as stated previously. But if the cultural depictions aren't enough to prove that, then just think about how many sweet classic clowns are used as logos throughout the town. Jojo's ice cream truck

and Big Top Burger

to name a few examples. This town loves clowns. And again, Tabacco says that they can't be clowns. He cannot imagine them as the same clowns we know and love because he knows healthy clowns don't murder. So, this is a clown-lover's way of saying "Killer Klowns are not clowns. Clowns don't kill".

4. Now, this one might be the silliest take of them all, but what is more silly than a clown? What if this is just a clown's comedic take on a horror movie? We have seen numerous horror movies about people, but we know they are far from representative of all humans. Why can't this just be a clown's horror movie? Of course we watch it and laugh, thinking it is just a B-movie horror film, but think about a clown watching this. A clown would be scared and horrified, both for the Klowns and the people in it. We see this movie as silly and cheesy, but clowns might get a real fright out of it! Maybe that's why clown lovers get so riled up over it. Besides, it seems like a goof because it has ripped off some of the most famous cliches in horror: the Psycho shower scene,

the girl not believing the killer,

and the car filled with cotton candy, reminiscent of the Blob. Actually, the whole movie is reminiscent of the Blob. Why? Maybe a clown found out about scary movies and wanted to make one suited to scare a clown!

Well, that's it. Those are my explainations for the movie Killer Klowns from Outer Space. Believe what you want, but these are some of my ideas. Like them? Or maybe you have another take. Please share your ideas! Thank you for reading through this ramble.

Clown bear for your patience!!
