Video Review – Terrifier 2 and Its Impact on Mainstream Horror

October 28, 2022 by EJ Moreno

EJ Moreno reviews Terrifier 2 and the big waves it is making for horror…

As Terrifier 2 begins to dominate this Halloween season, our critic EJ Moreno takes a deep dive into the film and what it means for extreme cinema in the mainstream. Horror fans have rarely seen such an independent cult hit like this make its mark in the mainstream; everyone from TikTokers to your local news is talking about Art the Clown.

In this video, see why our critic feels that even if the movie isn’t too great, it’s still an important moment for genre fans globally. We are seeing extreme horror take over like never before.

Check out the review below, and be sure to follow us on YouTube for more reviews, exclusive interviews, and other video content…

After being resurrected by a sinister entity, Art the Clown returns to the timid town of Miles County, where he targets a teenage girl and her younger brother on Halloween night.

Terrifier 2 sees the return of David Howard Thornton as Art the Clown and Samantha Scaffidi as the 2016 horror’s lone survivor Victoria Heyes alongside Lauren LaVera, Elliott Fullam, Felissa Rose and Chris Jericho.

Terrifier 2 is out now.
