The highly anticipated third installment in the Terrifier franchise, Terrifier 3, is scheduled to premiere in theaters on October 25, 2024. Directed by Damien Leone, known for his work on the previous films in the series, filming is currently in progress for this upcoming slasher flick.
Terrifier 3 is expected to continue the tradition of the franchise with its signature over-the-top gore and practical effects. Leone aims to push the boundaries even further, promising a film that will shock and entertain audiences. The director has hinted at a continuation of the intense ending from the second film, describing it as both 'sickening and hysterical.'
During a break from filming, Leone took to social media to tease fans about one of the most horrific scenes in the Terrifier franchise that was recently filmed. This statement has raised expectations among fans who are eagerly awaiting the release of Terrifier 3.
The movie is set to be distributed by Ciniverse and Bloody Disgusting, with familiar faces returning to the cast. David Howard Thornton will reprise his role as Art the Clown, alongside other returning cast members. Terrifier 3 will deviate from its predecessors by being a Christmas-themed horror film, where Art the Clown will terrorize a small community in Miles County.
Filming for Terrifier 3 commenced in February 2024 and is expected to wrap up within three months, staying on track for its October release date. Unlike the challenges faced during the production of Terrifier 2 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the current filming schedule is proceeding smoothly.
The Terrifier franchise has gained a dedicated following for its use of practical effects over CGI, providing a gritty and authentic horror experience. Despite facing criticism, Leone remains committed to his vision for the series, determined to cater to the bloodthirsty audience that appreciates his unique brand of horror.
With the success of Terrifier 2, expectations are high for Terrifier 3, set to hit theaters on October 25, 2024, promising fans another thrilling and terrifying installment in the popular horror franchise.
