    I found Terrifier and its sequel to be pretty good for what it is. A violent modern take on the classic slasher movies. It’s schlocky, but that’s because slasher movies are a bit schlocky.

    The actor does a great job hamming it up and making it all a bit more than a classic slasher, too, entertainment wise. If he tried to play it more serious scary clown style, it’d probably have faceplanted for me.

      Yeah. I don’t think I gave it a good try. After your, and another’s comments. I’ll give it a fair try at some point soon.

        Honestly, I would skip straight to Terrifier 2. It’s a much more polished film with developed characters than Terrifier 1, and you’d only have missed details about a minor side character who was also in the first movie. If you like 2, you can go back and watch Terrifier 1 (and All Hallows Eve, even though that one hardly counts as a movie or a Terrifier movie).

          I think I just watched (some or most of) all hallows eve. Not actually Terrifier 1. That’s where all my previous statements came from. Gonna have to edit those now.

          Either way, I’ll give 1 a try because I do love shitty horror movies. Like the good shitty type. Thanks for clearing that up for me.
