Terrifier 4 Horror Sequel Confirmed by Director Damien Leone

As a long-time movie enthusiast who has seen more horror films than I care to count, I can confidently say that Damien Leone‘s Terrifier franchise is a standout gem in the genre. Having followed Art the Clown’s gory escapades since the early days, I can attest to the growth and evolution of this B-movie horror masterpiece.


The director known for the gruesome Terrifier series, Damien Leone, has announced that a fourth film is currently being developed. Although he didn’t reveal any specifics, Leone is typically straightforward with his statements, and his promises tend to hold weight. Given this track record, we can count on him for accurate information. Leone chose to keep the details about the upcoming Terrifier sequel under wraps, but if the third movie continues its successful run like previous installments, a fourth one is likely inevitable. Among popular horror franchises, there’s nothing quite as satisfying for fans as Terrifier due to Leone’s knack for turning horror tropes on their head while delivering an abundance of violence and gore.

Although the third installment of the franchise hasn’t hit theaters widely yet, Director Leone is currently showcasing it at various film festivals. Last week, the movie made its debut at Fantastic Fest, where the director participated in a Q&A session to discuss the film. During this event, he was queried about the potential for a fourth film, and his response suggested optimism, as reported by Variety.

Yes, there will be a Terrifier 4.

The Terrifier series is a chilling horror franchise built around an age-old tale of a menacing clown who brutally murders innocent people using progressively gruesome methods. Initially, the franchise wasn’t renowned for its character development, but in the sequel, Leone focused on fleshing out the characters by setting the story against the backdrop of Halloween night. In part 3, Art the Clown will be seen donning a Santa suit and causing chaos during Christmas. The question arises: What happens when all iconic celebrations are used? Could Valentine’s Day or Thanksgiving be the next targets?

Terrfier Has Become a Hugely Successful B Movie Horror Franchise

It’s undeniable that the success of director Leone and his “Terrifier” franchise has skyrocketed. Despite sticking to the niche of B-movie horror, this decision has proven to be a smart move as the Church of Art the Clown continues to expand, gaining new members daily. It’s hard to believe when you recall that Leone faced financial struggles while making the initial “Terrifier” film, which was produced on a shoestring budget of $35,000, most of which went towards special effects. The movie had an Indiegogo campaign, but it fell short of its funding goal. Despite this setback, Leone persevered, and “Terrifier” ultimately earned nearly half a million at the box office, cementing its status as a cult classic.

When creating “Terrifier 2”, filmmaker Damien Leone took advantage of the larger budget of $250,000 to deepen the storyline, intensify the tension, and boost the graphic content. Like its predecessor, the sequel garnered a loyal fanbase and raked in over $15 million at the box office. As a result, a third installment was quickly greenlit. With a substantial budget of $2 million, “Terrifier 3” is set to surpass fans’ expectations even further. Leone has hinted that this new chapter will offer fans an unprecedented experience, showcasing his unique flair for the macabre, and it seems he has delivered on his promise.

Stream Terrifier and its sequel, Terrifier 2, on The Roku Channel. Mark your calendars for October 11, 2024, as Terrifier 3 will hit the big screens!
