We recently learned that the first trailer for Terrifier 3 will debut ahead of the second movie's return to the big screen on November 1st, and based on everything we've heard about the upcoming horror flick, gorehounds should be in for quite a treat.
Director Damien Leone has already promised that the third film would up the ante considerably, and during a new interview with JoBlo, the filmmaker revealed that the first five minutes along are going to be "very controversial."
Leone said that Terrifier 2's success led to him taking meetings with some major Hollywood studios, who were interested in developing a third instalment. However, after speaking with them, he realized that they'd never allow him to make the twisted threequel his way.
"I remember having meetings with people. I got to meet with studios, like legit Hollywood studios, who wanted to make Terrifier 3. But before I even had a script, just based on the success of part 2, and just having meetings and getting the feel that I was going to have eyes over my shoulders, and they were concerned about the levels of gore and this and that. I knew, and not having seen my script or have any idea what I had in mind, I knew they weren’t going to let me make this movie based on the first five pages. Like that’s how insane Terrifier 3 is. The first like 5 minutes of this movie, a studio would never let me film what I plan on filming. So mark my words, I guarantee you the first 5 minutes of this movie is going to be very controversial. But that’s not even the big kill scene. So like that’s why I was like, I need to just make this movie on my own, because it’s just too... it’s too insane."
If you've seen the first two movies - particularly Terrifier 2, which contains one of the most genuinely sickening, depraved sequences every committed to film - you'll be well aware that for Leone to use words like "insane" and "controversial," this opening scene much really be off the charts messed-up!
We'll be sure to bring you the first trailer for Terrifier 3 as soon as it's released online, but for now, you can check out some new fan-made(?) posters shared by producer Steve Barton below.
