Summary
The man behind the petrifying makeup inTerrifier 3, actor David Howard Thornton, has commented on Halle Berry’s scary Art the Clown photo in the most wholesome way possible, even for a demented demon serial killer.Terrifier 3was initially released in September for Fantastic Fest and then globally earlier this month, and it’s already proving to be one of the biggest movie hits of the year. Written and directed by Damien Leone, who also wroteAll Hallows' EveandFrankenstein vs. The Mummy,Terrifier 3follows in the footsteps of the franchise’s previous gruesome entries in which Art dresses up as Santa and brutally murders a family a few nights before Christmas before truly stepping inside the shoes of a twisted Mr Claus in a bid to slaughter a slew of victims.
Terrifier 3has already made over $49 million at the worldwide box office, which is a fantastic feat for its director Damien Leone since the movie only had a modest budget of $5 million. Leone previously stated in an interview that even thoughTerrifiercould be seen, at times, to be crossing certain lines in regard to its over-the-top gore and sadistic killings, there’sone line that Leone won’t crosswhen it comes to what he’ll show on the big screen. It’s fair to say the supernatural slasher film has gained a huge following, with one movie star, in particular, showing her love for the franchise.
Terrifier Actor Gives Halle Berry’s Art the Clown Photo Seal of Approval
Reported byCinemablend, the actor who playsTerrifier’s Art the Clown, David Howard Thornton, has responded to Halle Berry’s recent photo of her snuggling up to a menacing replica of the film’s clown. The Oscar-winning actress, best known for playingCatwomanand Dr. Miranda Grey, a psychiatrist inGothika, posted a snapshot on social media alongside one of cinema’s most terrifying clowns, a rival toStephen King’s Pennywise. In the caption, Berry said she was “clowning around” with the frightening display in preparation for Halloween. In a surprising but wholesome turn of events,Terrifier’s real Art the Clown posted a reply to Berry giving his seal of approval at the awesome homage to his character, stating “Honored” with a smiley clown face.
Berry has previously starred in horror films herself, with her most recent one being the 2024,Never Let Go, written by Kevin Coughlin and Ryan Grassby. Before that, the acclaimed actress starred in popular movies such as theX-Menfranchise,The CallandMonster’s Ball. Even thoughTerrifier 3may not be everyone’s idea of the perfect Christmas movie with joyful singing and happy moments, it certainly puts a unique anddark twist on the holiday seasonthat many seem to love.
However, with that said, not everyone will appreciate horror themes and bucket loads of blood when heading to the cinema. In the UK, some moviegoers were apparentlyleft traumatized afterTerrifier 3’s opening scenesdue to not being told what they were initially going to watch, and seemingly only told it was an unrated movie that was also a “holiday” story.
