KILLER KLOWNS FROM OUTER SPACE Could Be Getting a Television Series
Killer Klowns From Outer Space could soon have a four part miniseries debut according to its director/writer Stephen Chiodo. Bloody Disgusting writes that the director is in talks to develop what he calls a "requel" to air on cable television...
"Right now, we are currently pursuing a long arch series for cable. We wondered, should we do a sequel to the first one or do we do a remake? We came up with a ‘requel’ – it’s a sequel and a remake. We’ve been developing this for a while. It’s a trilogy in four parts, and it really follows the continuing adventures of new people who are experiencing this phenomenon of a Klown invasion, and once in a while you see some of the old guys pop up and hear their stories – find out what happened over the last 25 years. It’s fucking great."
If you want to hear the word straight from the horse's mouth, check out the Movie Crypt Podcast, which did a full interview with the director. Personally, I think this is fantastic news! My favorite remakes are franchises I care very little about!
