Plot

After being beheaded by Sienna Shaw, [a] Art the Clown's headless body decapitates a cop responding to the incident, and makes its way to the asylum where survivor Victoria Heyes, now possessed by the Little Pale Girl, has just given birth to Art's own head. Before reattaching his head to his body, Art and Victoria kill a nurse and a guard before entering an abandoned house and going into hibernation.

Five years later, Sienna is released from a mental health center to stay with her aunt Jess, her uncle Greg, and her cousin Gabbie, who idolizes Sienna but has no knowledge of the events she endured. Sienna is suffering from survivor guilt and experiences a hallucination of her deceased best friend Brooke, whose death [a] she feels responsible for. She struggles to reconnect with her younger brother Jonathan, who is now in college trying to move on with his life. Art and Victoria are woken from their slumber when two demolition workers stumble upon them in the house. The duo kills the workers, and Victoria begins working on a costume, while Art ventures off on another killing spree. Art meets a Santa Claus impersonator at a bar, where Art kills him and takes his Santa costume. Art then brutally kills a family with an axe in their own home. In the morning, Art poses as a mall Santa and uses explosives disguised as presents to kill several people at the mall, many of them children. Sienna thinks she sees Art at the mall in disguise before the explosion, but does not tell her family since she thinks they would not believe her and is unsure herself if it was simply a hallucination or not.

Sienna visits Jonathan at his university. There she meets Jonathan's roommate Cole and his girlfriend Mia, who hosts a true crime podcast. Mia pressures Sienna and Jonathan to participate in an interview about the Miles County Massacre, but Sienna lashes out. Sienna confesses to Jonathan that she thinks Art is still alive, and she shows Jonathan a letter that he wrote to her while she was in the psychiatric hospital, which states that demons can come into our world via possessing hosts like Victoria with the help of evil and depraved killers like Art. She also tells Jonathan that she plans to return to the Terrifier haunted attraction to retrieve her father's sword. Art arrives at the university and kills Mia and Cole with a chainsaw. Sienna learns about the mall killings on the news and panics, demanding Jonathan return home from college and warning the family they are not safe. Greg leaves to collect Jonathan while Sienna falls asleep. She dreams of her father and of the angels crafting the armor from her warrior costume that he drew for her. Sienna wakes to hear Jess and Greg downstairs discussing what they should do about her worsening condition. When she walks into the dining room, Sienna instead finds Art and Victoria decorating Greg's decapitated and eviscerated body pinned to the wall. Sienna runs but is incapacitated by Art with a mallet.

As Sienna regains consciousness, she finds herself and Jess tied to chairs and gagged and Greg's severed head being used as the star on their Christmas tree. Victoria shows them a skinless head being consumed by rats, telling Jess that it is Gabbie's head. Art and Victoria then kill Jess by hammering a tube into her throat, forcing rats down it and slitting her throat. Art suddenly enters with Gabbie as a hostage, and Victoria reveals to Sienna that the head is actually Jonathan's head. Victoria places a crown of thorns on Sienna's head and tries to possess her, but she resists because her will is not yet broken. Victoria tells Sienna to open her Christmas gift from Gabbie. which, unbeknownst to Victoria, contains Sienna's sword. Sienna breaks free after opening the sword and uses it to cut Art's throat and decapitate Victoria. Sienna finally gains an advantage by impaling Art to a wall with her sword, but Victoria's pool of blood burns through the floor and creates a portal to Hell, into which Gabbie falls. Sienna leaves Art in order to save Gabbie, but despite her efforts to save Gabbie, Gabbie eventually falls into the abyss with the sword. Art flees through a window and boards a city bus, and Sienna looks down at her wounded hands as they heal, vowing to find and rescue Gabbie.

Terrifier franchise creator and director Damien Leone

This film featured the character of Victoria Heyes, the heroine turned villainess of Terrifier (2016), in a much more prominent role compared to the 2016 film and its 2022 sequel—with Damien Leone's biggest regret with the first film being leaving her underdeveloped. The original ending of Terrifier 2 set up Victoria's demise in the opening of this film, but Leone deemed it to be too similar to the concept of Malignant (2021). While conceptualizing the birthing scene, he decided he wanted to keep Victoria alive and give her significant character development, as he enjoyed working with Samantha Scaffidi. [9] [10] [11]

[18] Principal photography began in February 2024 and wrapped in April 2024, [12] [19] [20] with additional scenes completed in New York until early/mid June. [16] Leone chose to shoot the film using Panavision anamorphic lenses with the intention of making the film look like a "vintage John Carpenter movie". [21] The film cost $2 million to produce, up from its predecessor's $250,000 budget; Variety described the budget as "still wildly low by Hollywood standards". [4]

Release

Terrifier 3 was theatrically released in the United States on October 11, 2024, by Cineverse, who acquired distribution rights in June 2023, setting it for a wide release in collaboration with Iconic Events Releasing, with an exclusive streaming debut on the former's Screambox service.

As of December 26,2024, Terrifier 3 has grossed $54 million in the United States and Canada, and $35.4 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $89.4 million. [5] [6]

[28]

Writing for Slant Magazine , Rocco T. Thompson described the storyline as being "half-formed" but praised the leading performances and the practical effects. [46] Thompson highlighted Scaffidi's performance in particular: "it's the surprisingly spooky Victoria Heyes who emerges as the film's villain MVP, what with the overwhelming Art often playing second banana in their scenes together. Through it all, Scaffidi exudes a chilling sense of evil from beneath pounds of prosthetics." [46] Thompson also noted that LaVera brought "emotional intensity to the narrative" in her portrayal. [46] In a review for The Austin Chronicle , Richard Whittaker highlighted the film's continued worldbuilding, the transgressiveness of the Art character, and Victoria's expanded importance as a villain in the series. [47] Similarly, Matthew Jackson of The A. V. Club praised the script and the performances of Thornton and LaVera. [48] Jackson stated that LaVera "cements herself as one of horror's brightest new stars with her second time out as Sienna Shaw."

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Final girl</span> Trope in slasher horror films

The final girl or survivor girl is a trope in horror films. It refers to the last girl(s) or woman alive to confront the killer, ostensibly the one left to tell the story. The final girl has been observed in many films, notable examples being Psycho, Voices of Desire, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, Halloween, Alien, Friday the 13th, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Scream, and Terrifier 2. The term "final girl" was coined by Carol J. Clover in her article "Her Body, Himself: Gender in the Slasher Film" (1987). Clover suggested that in these films, the viewer began by sharing the perspective of the killer, but experienced a shift in identification to the final girl partway through the film.
