I avoided the
Terrifier films for a long time under the impression that they were just generic killer clown movies (you know the kind I'm talking about lol).
But my gf and I watched the first and then saw the 2nd in theatres, and I ended up really loving them!
Just really fun and dark slashers, with a lot of brutality and mean-spiritedness in the style of old grindhouse slasher/splatter films. One scene in particular in
Terrifier 2 had my jaw dropped by the sheer brutality and cruelness of it. And I consider myself pretty desensitized by gore/violence in horror films.
I know they wont be everyone's cup of tea, but I think they might become favorites of mine.
Art the Clown is really fun to watch, and I love his design and personality. I have a feeling he's going to join the ranks of the big iconic slashers in years to come. A modern horror icon in the making.
