The Chiodo Brothers

American puppeteers and special effects artists

The Chiodo Brothers (Stephen, Charles & Edward Chiodo, all born in Bronx, New York[1]) are a group of sibling special effects artists. They are best known for their movie Killer Klowns from Outer Space[1] and for making puppets and effects for movies such as Critters, Ernest Scared Stupid, and Team America: World Police.[1] They made the detailed dioramas seen in the 2010 movie Dinner for Schmucks. The post-hardcore band Chiodos (originally called The Chiodos Bros) is named after them as a tribute.
