The film is wholly unoriginal and suffers from sloppy directing, while being riddled terrible narrative choices in a paper-thin plot that break the movie's own logic. All of this is wrapped together in an eyesore of a lens filter that makes the abundance of blood and gore look like the catering service got overzealous with the sriracha sauce.

The only thing worth seeing is David Howard Thornton's performance as the somewhat hilarious, somewhat menacing, but always entertaining Art the Clown.… Expand

This movie was just too bad to finish. Nonsense killing/gore way too exaggerated and no horror at all. The clown was funny at times, else was plain bad.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The sequel to the 2022 horror movie. The more suspenseful the first, the more absurd, funny and fantastical this one. There will be moments where you will say "no more" at least 3 times while watching. What was the need to fly so much? When I saw your score, I watched it with excitement, thinking it was better than the first. But it was a huge disappointment. Many questions remained open.

1 - Who was that little clown girl?

2 - Does it really exist or not?

3 - Who was Sienna's father and what connection does she have with the clown?

4 - What is the story of that sword?

5 - Why was their mother so aggressive and why doesn't she tell about their father's situation?

6 - How does only the head live? Wtf

There is no sex in the movie. There is little nudity.… Expand

Terrifier 2 is low-budget gore crap. It's okay because the movie doesn't seek to be serious but unlike "Killer Klowns from outer space" this film is not funny at all. The deaths are fine but they did not generate anything for me, which is whyTerrifier 2 is low-budget gore crap.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Probably one of the most dull movies I have watched in recent memory. Where the first terrifier shines, this one just falls flat. The story is abysmal, making no sense to even the most attentive. The gore is nice, but that does not make up for the lack of anything relating to storyline. The first one was fine with it as it ended in a cliffhanger, making us assume we will get more answers in the 2nd one, and it left us with barely anything to contemplate other than that. The 2nd movie just leaves us with too many questions, and overall is just too slow and goes on for way too long.… Expand

Art the clown is a legend and the gore can be entertaining. The movie, however, is nothing sort of an absolute mess. The story is borderline incoherent and the movie runs a good 30 minutes too long. It was too complicated for its own good.

In fact, this is not good and not scary. They just kill people. This is the focus of the story and the roles of the characters are asleep, not real

Yeah, well the first one was already garbage and horribly overrated, so this comes as no surprise. Damien is no filmmaker, just a perverted gorehound with a 250k budget.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Boy what a mess; a co-worker of mine found out I love horror movies and the gorier the better. They convinced me to watch the first two feature length films. Terrifier was a perfectly acceptable slasher film, the gore and practical effects were done well and there was some genuine scenes that made me feel uncomfortable (which is hard these days!). Terrifier 2 cranks up the violence like twenty fold, the effects and everything are fine, I have no problem with these things, but there are problems, huge problems.

For starters Terrifier 2 is over two hours long, there's no reason for this film to be that long and I cannot believe some people managed to sit through this in the theater. There are several scenes that don't need to be in the film at all and act simply as padding.

It feels like this movie is supposed to have some lore dropped on us, the issue arises from the fact that we have literally no context to any of it.

The main character's Father is dead, they make several references to this, like it's important. When the Father's sketchbook makes an appearance the main character acts like they found the holy grail of artifacts, but they don't explain WHY.

The main character also appears to be obsessed with their Father's "character". "Daddy's Character" is referenced at least three or four times, like it's important, but we don't get anything else besides the main character just saying, "Daddy's character!"

Further, Terrifier 2 couldn't be further away from the first film. While the first one is a pretty vanilla slasher film with a cool little post-credits scene, the second is more like a dollar store rip-off of Nightmare on Elm Street.

None of it really makes sense and there is literally no attempt to explain any of it. Look, I get it, this is supposed to be a horror film, we need to be able to suspend our sense of disbelief while watching it. I can do that, honest! I love Dead Alive and almost all of the Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street films. This film is more absurd than both of those franchises combined.

Suddenly we got a pale little girl clown, Art can apparently do whatever he wants, invade your dreams, teleport, just all sorts of stuff. Oh wait, now there's an entrance to hell and a magic sword and... What were they smoking?! I feel like you need to be on LSD to enjoy this film!

There is A LOT to appreciate with this film, the writing and pacing are some of the worst I've seen in all my years of watching horror movies. There was no reason this film had to be that long, there was no reason the writing had to be the way it was.

I am willing to bet if there was a super-cut of this film with all of the pointless junk taken out it may even be a fairly decent film. Come for the amazing gore and kills, fast forward through any writing or plot, there is no character development, you will miss nothing and save time.… Expand

This movie is so gross and repelling, whoever made this must have serious metal illness, or maybe just a pervert.
This is not a movie, it’s just garbage.
