    Kinda funny (in a sad way) that Terrifier 3 references a very political horror movie (Black Christmas) every 10 minutes. Still not sure if the director just doesn’t understand his genre or he does and is just too cowardly to stand up for his cast.

    The Spectre is so fun Imagine you commit a crime in Gotham and you’re so worried about Batman you don’t even realize there’s a bible thumping vengeance ghost who’s on his way to literally force feed fire ants down your urethra or some other sicko shit that feels straight out of a Terrifier movie

    I reviewed Damien Leone's non-political TERRIFIER 3 once through a political lens. I leave this as a plea to consider what a critic does ideally is different (more often than not, although there are exceptions) from what an artist does/should be expected to do: filmfreakcentral.net/2024/10/terr...

    Hello spooky buddies, October means a horror focused #LastFourWatched this #LetterboxdFriday. I expect everyone to their homework for Halloween by watching a scary movie. Terrifier is mainstream torture porn, Deranged embodies Ed Gein, Curtains = casting couch murders, & elaborate found footage.

    So there's this famously bad creepypasta story called "Bubby the clown" It's not even a story it's just a description of an evil clown and what he does. He is. Almost EXACTLY Art the Clown from Terrifier And it came out YEARS BEFORE the movie YEARS AND YEARS

    absurd. if this were a sincere category, Terrifier 3 would be nominated. say what you will about the movie but $89 million from a $2 million budget (and an indie distributor) is a major box office achievement.

    Nikki from Obsession is not visually iconic enough to warrant a Fortnite skin or a Universal Studios character. She's kinda just a woman. Like, I've never seen Terrifier but I can recognize Art the Clown. I don't know if I'd recognize Nikki even having watched the movie.

    Tried to see THE DRAMA tonight, easily the worst theater audience I’ve had since TERRIFIER 3. Asked the couple next to me to please stop talking, they told me to shut the fuck up and that the theater isn’t my house and they can do what they want. I love movie theaters so much but this is exhausting.

    The script I was given for Terrifier 2 was almost exactly the same as the finished film. The script for Terrifier 3 was as long as 2's, but this time scenes were left out because of run time. The novelization includes all those extra scenes (plus a lot of weird stuff I added)!

    Just saw a 130 minute horror movie that would have been "ok, whatever, nice try" at 80. I will never forgive the TERRIFIER sequels for making this "hey let's just keep introducing more characters at the 90 minute mark and basically start the sequel" shit acceptable.

    For some reason, I can see this pulling a Terrifier if they decided to actually make a sequel. Where the first movie was just okay and the sequel could potentially be even better. Maybe. But yeah. Fun little movie.
