A new horror film, Terrifier 3, has warned audiences to brace themselves for “extreme violence and excessive gore.” The film’s official account on X (formerly Twitter) even informed viewers that staff trained in first aid would be on site for those feeling unwell. This unique precaution was shared alongside a poster from a UK preview screening, signaling just how intense the film is expected to be. Fans, however, seemed unfazed by the warning, with many expressing their eagerness to see the movie. One excited viewer commented, “This makes me want to see it even more!”
The movie, directed by Damien Leone, is the third installment in the Terrifier franchise, which has gained a cult following despite its low budget. The story follows Sienna Shaw, played by Lauren LaVera, as she tries to rebuild her life while being pursued by the terrifying Art the Clown. Leone recently shared in an interview that he was approached by a major studio to reboot the franchise but declined, as they wanted to tone down the graphic nature of the films for a wider audience.
Terrifier 3 continues to stay true to its independent horror roots, maintaining the intense levels of violence that fans of the series have come to expect. The franchise has been remarkably successful, grossing over $15 million globally on a budget of just $250,000. Fans of extreme horror are eagerly awaiting its release in theaters on October 11, with many already calling it one of the most anticipated horror films of the year.
