We can’t thank our fans enough for their support and for making us believe we’ve made something truly special.”

Brad Miska, VP of Bloody Disgusting for Cineverse, adds, “I knew the second I saw Terrifier 2 that it would be a generational horror film and was ecstatic when horror fans showed up to experience the movie in theaters making it one of the biggest indie horror successes of all time. With Terrifier 3, Damien Leone and Phil Falcone have handcrafted a theatrical experience like no other that will shock the hell out of audiences this fall. Art the Clown will slay October once again.”
