At a Glance: An alien band of killer clowns descends from the cosmos to harvest scores of small-town victims, cocooning their prey in cotton candy to save for later. With the extraterrestrials disguised as harmless circus employees, the authorities don't suspect a thing. But the joke is on the clowns when two street-wise teens (Grant Kramer and Suzanne Snyder), armed with an ice-cream truck, do battle to save their friends in this cult favorite.

My Take: When I was little, I used to watch Sci-Fi Channel and B-horror movies with my dad all the time. This is one that scared the crap out of me. A friend of mine brought it up recently, so I decided to Netflix (yes, it has become a verb) it so we could watch it again together. Of course I expected it to be incredibly cheesy, and I was not disappointed. I love 80s B-movies, and this was a great flashback into the past and my childhood.
