A passionate display of sheer and utter depravity, Damien Leone's pure love for the genre is felt in every frame. The man is a virtuoso of special effects, and he delivers carnage in VATS, crafting some of the most gloriously gut-wrenching and wholly ingenious set pieces I've ever had the pleasure of witnessing. And it's all brought together by David Howard Thornton's bigger-than-life performance as Art the Clown (made even bigger on the big screen), and Elliott Fullam's and Lauren LaVera's welcome amount of heart.… Expand

Damien Leone's Terrifier 2 is like the cheesiest mid 80s horror you'd find on USA Up All Night at three in the morning, mixed with the extreme body horror of a Mario Bava. 80s references: The main characters are a teenage girl and herDamien Leone's Terrifier 2 is like the cheesiest mid 80s horror you'd find on USA Up All Night at three in the morning, mixed with the extreme body horror of a Mario Bava. 80s references: The main characters are a teenage girl and her younger glasses-wearing computer nerd brother obsessed with serial killers. Especially one in particular. The synth music hums through every scene, when it's not trying to sound Carpenter-ish. The main authority figures, their mother and teacher, do nothing but yell at them constantly (parents just don't understand!). One character looks like she stepped off the set of Working Girl. I know it's Halloween, but the 80s look is spot on. Credit must be given to Leone in the creation of Art (art, get it?) the Clown. The stark black and white costume and make up design are just right, the tiny askew hat is the cherry on top. Whereas Art was a bit subdued in his two previous appearances (he just had to look menacing), Leone lets his characters freaky clown flag fly. Through physical movement, gestures, bits of business, Art the Clown has the time of his life slicing, dicing and tearing through his victims. And that he does. The gore is outlandish, as bodies are beaten and torn apart like the sacks of meat we are. Though a two hour running time would have helped, you gotta love where Leone takes his little cult film.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Just fantastic. Innovative kills (they evened up sawing a girl from her vagina in 1 to mutilating a penis in 2).
Good acting (a 44 year old playing a high school student).
Great gore, excellent cinematography, nice set ups that pay off. Pretty much all you can ask for in a horror film.… Expand

This is a clear cut example of what slasher movies need to be for the next decade. And made with only a $250,000 budget. It was way better than the original which was really good as well. I give a 9.5/10 but a 9 is too low so here’s a 10 it needs it… Expand

Any time I see stories about a horror movie being so scary/gory that people walked out of theatres, threw up or passed out - I’m immediately sceptical. And my scepticism is justified every time. Mostly, they just turned out to be publicityAny time I see stories about a horror movie being so scary/gory that people walked out of theatres, threw up or passed out - I’m immediately sceptical. And my scepticism is justified every time. Mostly, they just turned out to be publicity stunts. In fact, I now just assume that to be the case. To be fair, I’m probably not the best judge of these things, since it takes a lot to elicit that kind of reaction from me. But a few movies have got close.

And so, I watched Terrifier 2 partly because I enjoyed the first one but also to see if there really was any validity to these claims. It’s really gory. More so than Terrifier 1 and more than I expected. Do I believe the claims? Yes, I do. Even I was on the edge a couple of times. Although that may have had something to do with watching it while eating lunch.

I’m still on the fence as to whether I enjoyed it or not. On the one hand, it’s a good 80s horror cheesiness. On the other, there were times it felt like some of the gore was done purely for the shock value. It feels like they did it just for the sake of making it gory.… Expand

At it's core, it's a classic, campy slasher flick but definitely has it's own identity. Well worth a watch, and is likely to become a Halloween tradition among the more hardened horror lovers. Do not pass this one up!!… Expand

Terrifier 2 toma todo lo bueno y lo malo de su antecesora y lo mejora, aquí si se cuenta una historia y te presentan de manera directa a sus personajes así que por lo menos te podrán importar o no importar algunos de ellos. Las escenas de muertes son muchísimo más gráficas y violentas, incluso cuando nuestro payaso Art se toma la molesta de usar armas de fuego. Se que la duración puede despertar escepticismo pero la verdad es que tiene un buen ritmo y nunca llega a sentirse lenta o apresurada, mi único pero sería en el tramo final y escena postcredito, que es donde las cosas se salen un poco de contexto con el tema de la espada y la tipa deforme, pero en general estuvo increíble, entretenida y muy, pero muy asquerosa, jamás habría creído que con un presupuesto tan minúsculo podrían lograr efectos tan realistas, hasta la fotografía se ve más estilizada comparada con la película anterior donde parece que la grabaron con filtros de instagram, en fin, ojalá veamos Terrifier 3 más temprano que tarde.… Expand

Pinnacle grindhouse, morally bankrupt violence, made by people who are clearly passionate for the genre. It’s the most disturbing and perverted display I have ever seen, but keeps within the realm of acceptability by its over-the-top, zany and nonsensicality, which keeps this grounded entirely.

Even more ludicrous is how good the soundtrack is, despite not fitting the films profile (like, at all) it absolutely works! These are the gambles I like to see be taken in cinema.

This is certainly a cult classic.… Expand

I had a great time watching Art the Clown stab, clobber, and rip people apart for the entire runtime. Although his actions were completely depraved, I found him to be extremely hilarious at times. The gore and all the messed up flesh was also pretty realistic and the film looks pretty good for such a low budget slasher film too. I thought Lauren LaVera was really good as the lead character and I enjoyed her presence. I was ready to get up and leave several times during the finale after I thought all the carnage was over but it kept going and going. Still had a great time.… Expand

Damien Leone sabe o produto que tem em mãos e tem habilidade para criar a atmosfera necessária à imersão. O palhaço é sádico e divertido ao mesmo tempo, e já nas primeiras cenas mostra a que veio, não é um filme de muita enrolação.
Há tambémDamien Leone sabe o produto que tem em mãos e tem habilidade para criar a atmosfera necessária à imersão. O palhaço é sádico e divertido ao mesmo tempo, e já nas primeiras cenas mostra a que veio, não é um filme de muita enrolação.
Há também uma família com um casal de filhos e uma mãe, pois o pai morrera. Mesmo se tratando de um slasher, ficou muito a cima da média a caracterização dos personagens, especialmente dos filhos, e por um momento não sabemos exatamente a que os jovens vieram.
Mas não há espaço para muito drama, o sangue toma conta das telas. Claro que há diversas passagens com muitas concessões, o vilão surgindo e reaparecendo do nada, visões que se confundem com a realidade, sonhos, vários e vários clichês, um final com reviravoltas cansativas e toscas. Mas quem se importa? As mortes são espantosamente gostosas de se acompanhar, como no primeiro "A premonição", e como dito anteriormente, não demoram a acontecer. E apesar de um pouco mais de duas horas, o filme passa voando.
Um detalhe: há uma cena pós-crédito bem interessante, que mescla muito bem o terror psicológico. Portanto, não é apenas um slasher, mas um exemplar muito bom de um filme eficiente, simples, com roteiro básico, e que consegue transmitir sua mensagem.… Expand

Clowns are truly in need of more love.

Blood, gore, humor, references to other brilliant movies galore.
What you take away is hopefully your mind, unless Art got to it first.

A pure slug fest for fans, a slightly disconnected story for visitors of the genre, and utterly meaningless to most. Given John died in the first movie, the prequel to the first Terrifier, he must be somewhat annoyed. And it shows. All the traits are there: anxiety, loneliness, lackluster ideas of how to make a living for himself.

This movie covers it all. From tumbling your clothes dry to lonesome hours in a waffle house. Walking empty streets with no friends. Being shut out. Being ugly. Disfigured in a place of perfection, left in the 1990s. Despicable, horrible, truly a nightmare. With beautiful women around... Oh yeah! This movie has STORY. Only a bit. Mostly it has character building, blood, gore, more blood, a stick house built only to be blown down by the big bad wolf. And there are no houses to run to. It leads nowhere but blood, and a clown smiling while you. Well. Watch. Yourself. Eat. It.

There is a psychologist somewhere in this movie, we just never meet him. If Kubrick was to watch this flick, he would probably appreciate some of the photography and complain about other parts. And that is alright my friends, as this is not a movie seeking perfection.

It is a terrifying flick lasting too long. Too long. I wonder when there are going to be brave souls again, to rip our guts out, smash our brains, just to say, hah, it is just a joke man! Truly a spectacle, a circus, a confusing bloody mess! Terrified. Two. At least, At least, At least.. Eight.. almost nine

Terrifier 2 didn't quite live up to the success of the first film, however it was still a gory great time again. The addition of "magic" in the plot was not explained well and it felt very out of place.

Sienna, the main character, is a good little actress but her brother Jonathan is terrible.... . Some of the scenes are super gory and well done, however other scenes go too far and become corny because of it. If you like slasher horror then I'd say it's worth a watch but don't let the kids see.… Expand
