The director of Terrifier 3 defends his decision to include graphic violence against children in the film, arguing that it is essential to the character of Art the Clown and that no holiday is safe from his twisted brand of terror.
“After surviving Art the Clown’s Halloween massacre, Sienna and her brother are struggling to rebuild their shattered lives. As the holiday season approaches, they try to embrace the Christmas spirit and leave the horrors of the past behind. But just when they think they’re safe, Art the Clown returns, determined to turn their holiday cheer into a new nightmare.
I think that being provocative and a little dangerous excites the audience. People wanna see. Listen, we know this is fantasy, right? We know it’s all fake. We’re not turning into serial killers here. You can see these things and be okay at the end of the day, but at the same time, you don’t want to push it too far to a level of extreme bad taste. So even though we touched upon a lot of taboo subjects and Terrifier 3, I went about it in sort of the most tasteful way I could, if that makes sense.
One cool element of Terrifier 3, and it really helps make it feel like a true trilogy, is that Samantha Scaffidi returns. She’s been in all three, and she really just gets to play a little freak in this film and goes all out. I know you’ve worked with her three times now, but how was it seeing how into it she was into going all out and being weird? She’s used wonderfully here.
No, so when I wrote part two, I knew what the end of this franchise was. So, then it just became a matter of, “Well, how many puzzle pieces do I need to get from here to there?” So it should just be one more movie unless it turns into something too big again. Because nobody could deal with like a two-and-a-half hour slasher film. It’s just too much to ask of people.
