Terrifier
Scary Movies X
July 14 - 20, 2017
Coulrophobics beware! It’s Halloween night and Art the Clown, the cold-blooded killer, is not wearing a creepy costume just for show.
Opening Night
Coulrophobics beware! It’s Halloween night and Art the Clown, the cold-blooded killer who also stalked Damien Leone’s previous short of the same name and his 2013 omnibus feature All Hallow’s Eve, is not wearing a creepy costume just for show. He’s as evil as he looks—seriously, the scariest clown to ever hit movie screens—and, after an evening of partying, two young women unluckily enter his sights. At first they’re mildly amused by his presence (the ditzier of the two even dares take a selfie with him), but soon they understand the true danger he presents, as he proceeds to terrorize them, as well as anyone else who crosses his path. Lean and oh so mean, Terrifier is grittier, and more jarringly depraved, than most horror movies these days, oozing ’80s slasher–style gore. New York Premiere. Q&A with Damien Leone and actors David Howard Thornton, Samantha Scaffidi, Jenna Kanell, and Catherine Corcoran, followed by a “Cake, Clowns & Corpses” costume party to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Scary Movies.
