As horror fans eagerly await Terrifier 4, which promises to reveal all about Art the Clown’s elusive origins, creator and director Damien Leone seems to be looking to the late great David Lynch for inspiration on how to paint Art’s backstory in the fourquel.
"Once I wrote part 2, I decided to really start telling the story. I wanted to tell it almost in a Lynchian way," said Leone of Art’s backstory, in an interview with Collider. "I could never be on the same level as David Lynch. He’s one of my heroes. But I love the way he tells stories, and they’re very abstract. He doesn’t give you answers. If he ever tried to articulate, it would trivialize and diminish the beauty of what he’s done as an artist. His voice is his work. He’s not supposed to just tell you what he did."
