In for a Pennywise, in for another pound of blood-dripping flesh. You thrilled to IT, now chill to Art the maniacal clown of all your worst nightmares. Appearing initially in director Damien Leone’s 2008 short THE 9th CIRCLE, then the 2011 award-winning short TERRIFIER, horrifying Art returns for his first full-length frightener. Here Leone delivers all the gore and much more in this slasher exploitation extravaganza that’s both lip-smackingly disturbing and screamingly shocking. For Art is back on the silent prowl ready to terrorise three young women on Halloween night and anybody who stands in his dismembering way.

• ImagineFilmFestival.nl: Bestaan ze nog; horrorfilms die bewust akelig en bloederig zijn, niet geschikt voor mensen met een zwak gestel, maar bedoeld voor de echte fans? Absoluut, en Damien Leone's Terrifier is daar een overtuigend bewijs van. Hij koos ervoor het grootste deel van zijn vermoedelijk bescheiden budget te besteden aan practical effects, en dat is te zien. In wezen is dit 84 minuten lang stalken en slashen, en die eenvoud werkt perfect. De film is buitengewoon bloederig en clown Art steekt Pennywise naar de kroon.
• JoBlo.com: It's a thrilling, brutal, gory '80s throwback. I could see Art the Clown being embraced by the horror community in a major way. He's got a memorable look, he's scary, and he kills people real good. 8/10!
• Bloody-disgusting.com: The real star of this movie is obviously Art the Clown. I'd honestly rank him among the scariest clowns in horror, if not the creepiest ever. A huge crowd-pleaser. Packed with gore and featuring one of the coolest clown villains I've seen in a long time, Terrifier was a treat for anyone seeking a bloodbath.
• Bloody-flicks.co.uk: Leone's mission was to create a truly unsettling horror film and he succeeds with bloody glee as Terrifier is certainly a film that will stay with you long after those credits have rolled.
• FilmInquiry.com: Art is a gorgeously disturbing vision.
• Flickeringmyth.com: Backed up with a pulsing synth score, dark gallows humour and a concise 81-minute running time, Terrifier is an extremely satisfying horror movie.Taut, nightmarishly unsafe, mercilessly brutal, and at times pretty stylish for a grindhouse throwback.
• The Artful Critic: quickly grows into an endlessly tense experience for the viewer.
• Modernhorrors.com: A tour de force of mayhem and disgust.
