‘Killer Klowns from Outer Space’ Finally Gets First Funko Pop

Funko

One of the very best horror films to never get a sequel is the Chiodo Bros’ classic Killer Klowns from Outer Space. Exactly as it sounds, the movie depicts an invasion of bloodthirsty, extra-terrestrial “klowns” who use ray guns to zap hapless humans into cotton candy cocoons. The cult classic has since developed a large following of fans in the horror community, but oddly enough, the film hasn’t ever been given the Funko Pop treatment… until now.

As revealed by Funko, the first Killer Klowns from Outer Space Funko Pop figure will be available exclusively at New York Comic-Con 2019. That’s certainly a bit of a bummer for those of us unable to make it to the event, but if you’ll be at NYCC, you’ll definitely want to grab one of these guys.

While labeled simply as a “Killer Klown,” hardcore fans of the movie will recognize him as the one known as “Slim.” Easily, Slim’s most memorable moment in the movie is when he performs a shadow puppet show with his hands for a group of people waiting at a bus stop. His clearly-impossible tricks impresses the onlookers, but their amusement turns into sheer terror when a shadow-dinosaur swallows the entire group up whole.

Film Synopsis: When teenagers Mike (Grant Cramer) and Debbie (Suzanne Snyder) see a comet crash outside their sleepy small town, they investigate and discover a pack of murderous aliens who look very much like circus clowns. They try to warn the local authorities, but everyone assumes their story is a prank. Meanwhile, the clowns set about harvesting and eating as many people as they can. It’s not until they kidnap Debbie that Mike decides it’s up to him to stop the clowns’ bloody rampage.
