The third installment of the no-budget horror series, proudly violent and loaded with slick endurance tests, is finding mainstream success by dispensing with tasteful restraint.
Why do we go to horror movies expecting art? I’ve sometimes wondered as much while watching Dario Argento’s “Suspiria,” suffused with shades of color that have never been matched, or when I soak in the ice-water-crisp compositions of John Carpenter. As a survival strategy, I’ve trained myself to look for the artist in the abattoir: the half-buried strain of racial anxiety, the social commentary of the zombie mall, the chill of a Tobin Bell line reading.
Fans know what to expect: hatchets crunching into limbs and scalps peeled like oranges. Why stop at mere decapitation when a whole body can be halved from bottom to top? 'Terrifier 3' is being released without a rating and that's a badge of honor. That unspoken contract between gore-hungry viewers and the film is mostly forged by Christien Tinsley, the makeup effects artist whose gushy prosthetics are shown off at every turn.
