I must admit I’m not big fan of these movies myself, but if you’re into them I hope you’re looking forward to the next installment of this insane horror franchise. The irony is that I’m very into movies like the SAW franchise. But for some reasons the first movie touched on something in me that just didn’t sit right with me. It might be me being hypocritical for saying that the violence we see in these films are so blind that I just don’t like it. The Saw movies at least have some logic behind why these things are happening, while this series has a clown that just goes around killing people for no reason whatsoever? What’s your opinion and by all means you do not have to agree with me.

    Is there any good story, character, or anything besides gratuitous violence? Like, can you just not get past the insane violence to enjoy these things? Or is the entire draw that it’s incredibly violent and you “just gotta see it?”

    If you’re thinking about Terrifier 3 I’ve watched the first one and it was just so insanely gory and brutal to the point where I was shocked, and I don’t easily shock that easy. I watch a lot of gory movies but the first movie shocked me so much that I’ve not touched the second and are not going to watch the third either. It’s like I wrote: they (at least the first) are so violent and brutal without reason. In my language (Norwegian) we got a term for it: blind violence. It’s just violence for the sake of violence. That’s what was my reaction and feeling about the first Terrifier. I was very impressed by what they achieved with that low budget because it was gory as hell and it was very effective.
