SOURCE-Steelbook Blu Ray
Was a few years back I started hearing there was a new gory clown horror film out there. Did some research and this Art the Clown had appeared a few years earlier in a horror anthology called All Hallow's Eve.
Last year in November I finally watched Terrifier. Thought it had good practical FX work. But needed more story and maybe better acting from some of the cast.
Also last year Terrifier 2 hit theaters. And people were shocked. GORIEST MOVIE EVER!!! Made people faint and throw up.
Well yea,I hear shit like that and usually it is a big red flag. Telling me to avoid the movie. But kept hearing how good Terrifier 2 was. So early 2023 I bought this Steelbook release.
Art is back from the dead. A late teens lady is working on her Halloween costume,think she is a valkyrie. There is long almost senseless dream scenes. Then near the end I realized OK either I missed something not seeing All Hallow's Eve or there was major clues in this film I didn't catch.
Now sure the film was gory. But far from goriest ever. But I guess we are what now 1 and 1/2 generations into this Horror is PG 13 and that is cool crowd...
I wanted to see if there was more to the film than I caught on that first viewing. Saw there is a director's commentary. Put that on and yep while some of what the director is saying is there in the film. Some of it is so buried and coded that I doubt most would notice it.
Anyways this was an improvement from the first Terrifier film. But I wanted a easier to understand story,and why the hell must all movies be 2 hours or longer now? This would have worked much better at a shorter length.
Terrifier 2 gets a C-
