Written and directed by Damien Leone, Terrifier 2 has resurrected yet another slasher franchise, bringing Art the Clown (David Howard Thornton) back to the big screen to continue his demonic and gory mission on a new Halloween night.

The controversy around Terrifier 2 stems from the extreme level of violence and sadism depicted in the bedroom scene, with reports of viewers fainting and vomiting. However, the controversy has also elevated the movie to a horror classic status and generated interest for a sequel.
