Warning: Major spoilers for Terrifier 3 below!Terrifier 3 reveals that Art the Clown decided to take a five-year break after the second movie – but why? The box-office success of Terrifier 3 has cemented Art the Clown (David Howard Thornton) as one of horror’s biggest new boogeymen. In contrast to other slashers like Michael Myers or Jason Voorhees, Art seems to take great delight in mauling and torturing his victims for as long as possible before killing them; Terrifier 2’s controversial bedroom scene is a perfect example of this.
