Stop The Internet Podcast. The movie might be seen by some as ugly due to this, since its violence is purposely more disturbing than in regular 80s slashers.

But, of course, at the same time, there's nothing in this movie that really differentiates this from other slashers in the slightest.

David Howard Thornton, who plays Art the Clown, does do a very good job with the character. He utters, literally no words.

Hell, he doesn't even make any type of sounds when he's hurt, but David does the give the character a threatening presence and physicality.

And, again, the appearance also has a lot to do with that, but David still does a great job regardless. I think that's one of the few things that separates David from most 'monsters' in slashers.

There's obviously been silent monsters before. Jason, Michael Myers, but, at the very least, those two have always been portrayed by tall, hulking men.

David is tall, at least it comes across that way, but he's a skinny guy. So, to me, I feel like that makes his performance even stronger.

Nobody else really stands out, though it's not like the acting is horrifyingly terrible. As far as scripting is concerned, there's nothing really to this movie.

What I mean by that is that it goes through all the beats you would have expected it to go through. It's standard and basic stuff all things considered.

And, really, that's one of the things that stuck out at me upon having watched this movie. Taking David's performance as Art the Clown aside, the movie is just your basic, average slasher.

So it's not only a throwback in style but just in terms of quality too. There was a time, late 70s to early 80s, where if this movie came out, it probably would have led to a major horror franchise that we would be talking about today.

But we're not in the late 70s to early 80s. We're in and horror, whether some may like it or not, is completely different than it was back then. Independent filmmakers have found ways to expand what the horror genre is.

So movies like this end up feeling incredibly retrograde and, quite honestly, worse than their more modern counterparts.

That's not to say that there isn't a place for films like this, that isn't my point, the point I'm trying to make is that the movie was so concerned with feeling like a throwback that it neglected to give it its own identity.

Because, as you may have seen, the movie is just inviting comparisons to what came before. There's probably a good movie here, deep down, but I feel like it requires a more adept hand than Damien Leone's.

The guy clearly has some talent, but I feel that he's not there yet as a writer in order to make a movie like this work and for it to feel completely unique.

That's why it feels like an amalgam of 70s and 80s horror with, honestly, very little that feels its own. The thing is, though, that this isn't bad.

I found this to be a decent and watchable enough movie, but there's no real substance to any of it and its lack of a real identity really held it back in my book.

There's no character-work whatsoever, the movie is just putting people in Art's way for him to murder, but there's no real story progression or anything of the sort.

Maybe there's more mileage to the Art character that I wouldn't mind a sequel, but this movie didn't exactly make the best first impression.

I wouldn't recommend it, but it's still a decent horror movie if you want something mindless. Having said that, this is still probably the worst decent horror movie I've ever seen, if that makes sense.

Edit Cast Cast overview, first billed only: Jenna Kanell Tara Heyes Samantha Scaffidi Victoria Heyes David Howard Thornton Art the Clown Catherine Corcoran In a plea for the return of her "child", she tries to show motherly compassion to Art by cradling him.

Vicky arrives to take Tara and Dawn home but is lured into the basement by Art. There, she discovers what she believes is an injured Tara, but it is actually Art, who has severely mutilated the Cat Lady and is wearing her scalp and breasts.

Mike's co-worker arrives looking for him but is decapitated by Art. Vicky escapes Art but stops to grieve upon finding her sister's corpse.

Art then attacks her with a makeshift cat o' nine tails , but Mike arrives suddenly and knocks Art unconscious.

The two flee and call but before they can escape, Art appears and kills Mike. Vicky retreats into a garage, and Art rams through the door with a pickup truck, causing further injury to Vicky.

As she lies helplessly, Art begins to eat her face. Police arrive, but Art shoots himself in the head with a pistol before the officers can apprehend him.

Art's body is taken to a morgue, along with the bodies of his deceased victims. When the medical examiner unzips Art's body bag, Art reanimates and strangles him to death.

One year later, Vicky is released from the hospital after rehabilitation from the injuries inflicted by Art; she is revealed to be the severely disfigured woman from the film's opening scene.

The character of Art the Clown first appeared in the short film The 9th Circle , which Leone wrote and directed. In , Leone launched a campaign on the crowdfunding website Indiegogo to finance Terrifier , a feature-length spin-off of All Hallows' Eve.

Terrifier premiered at the Telluride Horror Show Film Festival in Terrifier was released on DVD and Blu-ray by Dread Central on March 27, The release features audio commentary from Damien Leone and David H.

Thorton, behind-the-scenes footage, an interview with star Jenna Kanell, deleted scenes, collectible reversible cover art, and several other bonus features.

The film received mixed to positive reviews. Leone directs the hell out of that simple scenario, though, milking every possible bit of tension from each moment.

It's a thrilling, brutal, gory '80s throwback that I recommend checking out, especially if you have a fondness for the same decade of films that this movie obviously holds in high regard.

It's a surprisingly nice looking film for a movie about a clown chopping people into pieces. The film was not without its detractors.
