Terrifier 3

“Terrifier 3” is a 2024 horror movie and the third installment of Damien Leone’s “Terrifier” series. This one stars Lauren LaVera (Terrifier 2), David Howard Thornton (Terrifier), Samantha Scaffidi (Terrifier), Daniel Roebuck (River’s Edge), and Clint Howard (Ice Cream Man).

Art the Clown (Thornton) is back to wreak havoc once again and finish what he started by killing Sienna (LaVera).

The Terrifier’s are independent films, but they have been gaining more and more popularity as the series goes on. So much so, that the third one has made it to theaters and Art the Clown has become a household name. I have never found any of the Terrifier’s scary, but they are the goriest movies out there and are very unhinged. The third one is no different, so much so that it can be described as sadistic. Just when you don’t think it can get any gorier than the previous one, it manages to do so. This one has some of the wildest scenes I have seen, and also a small nod to the first film. The story line is better than the second one and the brutal scenes are spaced far enough apart that it works. It’s a solid horror movie, and probably the best one in the series. It hints at a fourth one at the end of this one giving us something to look forward to. I give it a 7/10.

Terrifier 2

“Terrifier 2” is a 2022 horror movie and sequel to the 2016 movie “Terrifier”. It stars Lauren LaVera (A Taste of Christmas), David Howard Thornton (Terrifer), Elliott Fullam (Get Rolling with Otis), Sarah Voigt (We Have a Ghost), and Amelie McLain (General Hospital).

It’s Halloween time and it’s been a year since the Miles County Massacre. Art the Clown is back in all his bloody glory to release another series of killings. This time his main target is a girl and her teenage brother.

This one has major “Halloween” feels to it. The way people are dressed, plus the decor of the houses look like it could be from the 80’s, even though it’s modern times. Also, Like Michael Myers, Art has returned a year later on Halloween night to unleash bloody vengeance. However, Art is like Michael Myers on steroids. I don’t think there is a “Slasher” flick as gory as the Terrifiers, or many horror movies at all. Art skins a young woman alive from her head to her toes, then also serves candy to trick or treaters out of her mom’s decapitated head, and that’s just one small part in it. “Terrifier 2” walks a very thin line of gore vs sadistic. It is not for the faint of heart, if you like extreme gore. This movie is for you.

This one is just shy of two and a half hours which is long for a horror movie. It tends to drag towards the end. They could have easily cut 45 minutes plus out of it, the gore just goes on and on. To the point where you’re just like we get it, and you’re just ready for it to end. It is entertaining, and going in I knew it would be a blood bath, so my major qualm with this movie is the length. If you’re into these types of films, definitely check it out. I give it a 6.5/10. Now we wait for the third installment.
