The highly anticipated horror film Terrifier 3 is already living up to its reputation for extreme gore and violence, even before its official release. At a recent UK screening, the movie proved too intense for some viewers, resulting in multiple walkouts and at least one case of vomiting
Audience Reactions
According to reports from the film’s PR team, the screening saw:
- 11 total walkouts.
- 9 people leaving during the opening scene alone.
- 1 confirmed case of a viewer vomiting.
These reactions highlight the film’s intense and graphic nature, particularly in its opening minutes. Director Damien Leone had previously warned that Hollywood studios wouldn’t allow him to film the first five minutes due to their controversial content.
Director’s Vision
Leone has been vocal about his commitment to pushing boundaries with Terrifier 3.
He stated:
“Mark my words. I guarantee you the first five minutes of this movie is going to be very controversial. But that’s not even the big kill scene. So that’s why I was like, I need to just make this movie on my own, because it’s too insane”
This approach seems to be resonating with horror fans and critics alike. The film currently holds a 93% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on early reviews from horror festivals
