Trailer for Killjoy’s Psycho Circus heralds December 1 release

Last Updated on July 31, 2021

While I am a fan of Full Moon Features, one of their franchises that I have fallen a bit behind on is the KILLJOY series. I saw the first KILLJOY when it was released in 2000 and didn't like it very much, so that put me off from the start. I have seen a couple of the sequels, but never gave my full attention to Killjoy. Judging by the newly released trailer for KILLJOY'S PSYCHO CIRCUS, the fifth film in the series, I need to do some catching up, because this franchise has obviously gone bugnuts insane in a glorious way.

Written and directed by John Lechago, who also wrote and directed the third and fourth films, KILLJOY'S PSYCHO CIRCUS stars Trent Haaga, back in the role of Killjoy, with Victoria De Mare, Al Burke, Tai Chan Ngo, and Tim Chizmar as Killjoy's cohorts Batty Boop, Punch the Hobo Clown, Freakshow, and Handy.

The story goes like this: 

Killjoy, the demon clown and his gruesome crew – Batty Boop, Punchy and Freakshow have finally made it to Earth! Killjoy has settled in and is starring in his own web series called PSYCHO CIRCUS. But two years down the road, Killjoy discovers that life here on Earth is a drag – filled with inconveniences such as eating, breathing, taxes, immigration, and mortal sex!

More problems arise as Killjoy’s love interest Batty Boop leaves after a bitter lover's quarrel, not to mention that Killjoy is now semi-mortal! But the challenges of being famous are nothing compared to the challenges of staying alive. After being tried for letting Killjoy escape, BEELZEBUB can only redeem himself by trapping Killjoy's spirit and bringing it back to Hell. Killjoy must find a way to unite his gang of clowns to defeat Beelzebub and his Six-Psychos!

It all comes together in an EPIC space-battle in KILLJOY'S PSYCHO CIRCUS!

Of course a battle with the devil would take place in space. Where else would such a thing occur? 

KILLJOY'S PSYCHO CIRCUS will be released on DVD and Full Moon's Amazon streaming page on December 1st.
