Terrifier Creator Says the Franchise Could Stretch to More Than Five Movies

As a die-hard fan of horror movies who has followed the Terrifier franchise since its inception, I can confidently say that Damien Leone’s upcoming projects are nothing short of exhilarating. The success of Terrifier 3 is a testament to Leone’s unparalleled ability to create suspenseful, gory, and downright terrifying films on a shoestring budget.


It’s widely recognized now that director Damien Leone is set to carry on the chilling tale of Art the Clown in Terrifier 4, given the impressive box office performance of Terrifier 3 over the weekend. It seems unlikely that the violence will cease with this installment alone, as the director has hinted at the future of the series, implying that there may be additional episodes featuring our beloved bloodthirsty clown embarking on a journey to an unforeseen destination through rivers of gore.

During their conversation, Leone shared insights about the future of the Terrifier series, hinting once more that a fourth film is indeed on the horizon. What’s particularly captivating is that even he himself is uncertain about how many more movies might be needed to reach the “epic” conclusion he envisions for us.

Currently, there’s no clear decision on the number of additional films in the Terrifier saga. To be honest, I don’t foresee the series extending beyond one or two more movies, but only the future can confirm this. At present, all I can assure you is that I know how it concludes, and it promises to be spectacular.

On a minimal budget of $2 million, the independent film Terrifier 3 has astonishingly grossed $23.3 million within its first four days of release, outranking popular mainstream movies such as The Apprentice, Saturday Night, and the struggling sequel Joker: Folie à Deux. This remarkable achievement is seldom seen in independent films, particularly those that are unrated. It underscores the dedication of Terrifier’s passionate fanbase, willing to go great lengths for the success of Art the Clown. The film seems to be sparking a cultural movement, even as it’s the third installment in the series. Director Damien Leone is apparently considering this trend when pondering the franchise’s future. Given its current success, it seems likely that Leone will at least make a fifth film to observe how Terrifier 4 performs in theaters, before deciding if Art the Clown has overstayed his welcome.

In the upcoming movie “Terrifier 3“, we witness some of the most brutal deaths in the series, making it challenging to imagine how Leone and his team will continue the violence in “Terrifier 4“. Previously, he’s discussed the pressure he feels to outdo himself with each film, which might lead him to explore a fresh direction for the next sequel to maintain inspiration. In an interview with Variety, the director hinted at an “experimental” fourth movie, but we can only speculate about its meaning at this point.

“I’ve been mulling over an idea that might turn out to be quite revolutionary and unconventional. I don’t want to reveal too many details just yet, but you can expect some wild twists and turns in the upcoming project.

From a film enthusiast’s perspective, his response hints at a plethora of possibilities for the upcoming film, ranging from it being a found-footage style production to Art the Clown venturing into space. The mind-boggling events we can expect? I wouldn’t dare venture a guess as to what’s brewing in the creative genius behind this gory masterpiece. For now, I have faith that Leone knows his stuff and is preparing an exhilarating journey for us in Terrifier 4. In the interim, don’t forget to catch up with Terrifier 3 currently playing in theaters from Cineverse and Bloody Disgusting.
