How long can this series go…?


I saw Terrifier 1 and was not impressed - it was a very low budget basic slasher .. Terrifier 2 came out and I watched it and it was entertaining for what it was - an extremely violent movie with a killer clown . Towards the end it got a bit messy though with the magical sword business ..

I have not seen Terrifier 3 but I imagine it’s like 2 with even more gore .. what I’m curious is how far can they take this? You can’t really just keep raising the fire without giving us something else .. I’ve been saying Art the clown can be the Michael Myers or Jason Voorhees of modern day horror but they need to give him somewhat of an interesting backstory which they have failed to do

So how many more Terrifiers will we see before it gets tired?

Nope. Less story, more over the top gore porn.

I think they can't at this point. The writing is complete shit. They focus too much on the main girl with all this Valkyrie nonsense while not diving deep enough into Art's origin. The first movie had something going for itself but continued to get dumber with each sequel. It sadly won't change either because audiences are eating up what's given to them, which is over the top gore over substance.

If Saw can be any indication: 10 movies. Why not? There aren't other horror franchises making this much money.

I agree that #1 wasn't good. It's boring with good gore.

I like #2 but it's overlong. We got more personality with Art and gore that's crazy.

#3 has a better sense of humor with Art, hardcore gore, and less story. It feels quick unlike the previous two which helps.


Fans enjoy seeing Art pull some insane violence while being insane with his expressions and mannerisms. If you don't enjoy that, then stay away. There's nothing wrong if you're not into it.
