Terrifier 3 director responds to walk-outs over “controversial” opening scene

As a seasoned gamer with a penchant for horror movies, I find myself drawn to the grisly allure of Terrifier 3. The fact that its opening scene has left some viewers squirming and fleeing the theater only serves to heighten my curiosity.


Terrifier 3’s director has responded to walk-outs over its “controversial” opening scene.

According to a report from The AV Club, it’s said that eleven individuals left during the initial screening of the forthcoming slasher sequel in the UK, with nine of them exiting within the first five minutes.

Upon hearing the news, director Damien Leone commented that the intense response to the graphic violence is a clear demonstration of the skill and talent possessed by the makeup team.

He commented to The AV Club that usually people exit a movie if it’s terrible. However, when someone leaves during a screening of “Terrifier,” it’s a sign of appreciation for the exceptional work done by the special effects make-up team. In essence, they’ve accomplished their goal!

Earlier, Leone hinted at the beginning of the third installment for JoBlo, reminiscing that film studios initially refused to allow him to produce Terrifier 3 due to its initial five pages, calling it a “crazy” movie.

As a passionate gamer, let me tell ya, the opening five minutes of this flick are gonna stir up quite a storm, I’m putting my money on it!

However, that’s not the climactic moment I had envisioned. Thus, I felt compelled to produce this film independently since it’s simply too… excessively extraordinary.

The film picks up where we left off with Sienna Shaw and the murderous Art the Clown, and based on early responses, it seems the series is still just as gruesome.

Writer Alex Papaioannou labeled it as “completely twisted and vile,” whereas James Preston Poole stated that “Terrifier 3” is “remarkably wicked” in a “favorable sense.

“You silly fools have no idea what is waiting for you in Terrifier 3,” added another reaction. “You wouldn’t believe what these eyes have seen.”

On October 11, you can catch Terrifier 3 in theaters. If you haven’t seen the first two, they’re both streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
