01:34Here we go.Terra Fire 2.So I'm on chat, GBT, right now.And I just asked it.Oh, Victoria was the sole survivor at the first film?Yeah, yeah.But I thought Tara was their survivor.Yeah, he just got the name wrong.
01:53But isn't Tara the main girl?Yeah, Tara is the one who died.The Tara dies, though.and it was the sister who came to rescue her who survivedyes yeah the sister who came to rescue her was vickywell i i thought when that movie ended that it was the sister who had beenmutilated who came back i didn't realize it was a sister who came to get herno no no no yeah okay okay okay okay yeah so now you understand all of terror fire too now
02:20no no i don't but at least that part people are gonna be pissed at me in the comments for thatbut i they they won't um okayOkay. So, okay. So the ending leaves questions like, what is Sienna's true connection to art and the supernatural? How was art able to survive or come back to life? Could there be a link between Sienna's family history and art's demonic nature?Who was the little girl? So was the little girl like his first victim? Who was the little pale girl?And how did Vicki then get art in her vagina?The little pal is a new character introduced to Terrifier to. She appears as a ghostly child.Okay, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.Here's what we know about her.
03:00The little pale girl seems to be a manifestationor a spirit that's directly tied to art.She often appears alongside him.We know that.But how can they see her?Yeah, yeah, we'll last that in a second.Film hints at a backstory that involves a tragic incident of carnivalwhere a young girl named Emily Crane was murdered
03:16and found wearing clown makeup.It's implied that this little pale girl now haunting and aiding artin his killing spree.However, exact nature is left ambiguous.She could be a ghost, a demon, or an extension of art's supernatural presence.Why are you being ambiguous?Spell it out for me.Invisible the most, but people, okay, yeah, we're just going to ask this thing.
03:37Wait, invisible to most people, what's it say there?Siena and some others can't see the little pale girl, but people directly affected by art like her brother, Jonathan.Wait, but Sienna could see her.This suggests she may exist.Okay.So why can Sienna and Jonathan see the little pale girl?but others can't throughout the movies supplied CNN and Jonathan's familyparticularly their father might have had a connection to art the clown and his dark
04:09powers their father was okay so I guess Terrifier 3 will answer thesetheir father was haunted oh me so we have to watch it my visions of art even createdsketches of him okay so we don't actually know why the the father had all these thingsSo, okay, okay, what?This is good content.Oh, see what?I've gone mute and you're reading chat GPT.I don't know what, but it's funny.
04:43So I was looking at articles.I hear in the bathroom.I'm like, this doesn't give me any answers.You don't like talk to this fucking name.I've literally gone mute and you are.And you talk to this AI.Falls deep in chat GPT.I know.
04:54There's so much.explanation but it's also not explaining it anything so my my main questions are what and it's okay thatthey didn't answer this but what is art's connection to the father you know like the father who wentcrazy and how did art's head end up in vicky's vagina okay so all right all right so we don't knowthe connection all right how did victoria give birth to art's head exactlyexactly why let me see if this freaking computer it's still explaining something else okayall right okay so so there's just some things that were not meant to know yet okay umheart has a way of infecting correct at the end of the first film okay yeah whatever
05:48does the victoria has been possessed or profoundly affected by arts evil influenceokay it's just some like symbolic thing ofthe act of giving birth to the head mayrepresent the idea that arts influence is a parasiteusing Victoria as a means to regenerate himselfthe disturbing twist could indicate that anyonetouched by art is at risk of becoming a hostfor his return suggesting that his spirit
06:09or essence can transfer and remanifist in horrificoh we're meant to theorizewe're meant to like trying to understand what's going onit's meant to be ambiguous for sure but it'sthere's so many parts that are so ambiguous it's likeIt's like, I need a couple of things spelled out.Right, right, right, totally, totally.Like, the first movie was so contained.
06:29It was such as, like, a straightforward.Yeah, but then the ending, you know, when he comes back to life, it's like, oh, there's a hint of supernatural.This one was like, there is...Questions, questions, questions.Yeah, like, we went to hell.She's in a pool.There's a birthday party.A birth was given to a head.
06:45Yeah.Like, yeah.And then even in this one, they said that the reporter was still, like, you know,live like hanging on to dear life and then we didn't get that answered um i have so many questionslet me ask you this and i'm sure you don't know the exact answer to this yet but did you likethe movie i did yeah i did like the movie um surprisingly i i did because i was invested in the mysteryme too and as much as there's a lot of things not answered um because i'm used to moviestelling me stuff by the end of it you know especially when you have a runtime of this length
07:21I just I guess I expect out of if this was like terrifier one then I would be a little bit more like oh it's I would probably be more on board of the train of ambiguity but because the first one is such a straightforward film then do your sequel which has this like mysterious ethereal supernatural elements hanging over the entire film like a couple ofthing spelled out for mebecause other thanwhat was really obviousthat the moviespelt that at the beginningthat dad has predictionshe draws it out
07:58sketches it outdaughter you're going to bethe one to beheadart down the roadbutand like how did the candlesget lityou know
08:07yesthe premonition stuffwas interesting thoughI did really like thisand I think it's a signof how much we liked itthat we wanted to lookall this up afterwards
08:15it wasn't likewhat it was likewait I got to figurethis outand you even said thata couple timesthroughout the movie. Like, I want them to tell me what's going on. And that means we're invested. We care. They did a good job making us care about the characters. I really liked the sibling dynamic in this one, just like I liked the sibling dynamic in the first one. But I thought that this one was a little more interesting because times they kind of had to help each other as opposed to in the first one, where one was already dead by the time the other one comes. So this was like a little bit of give and take, which I liked a lot. I thought that the,main girl and this is excellent i thought that her two friends were excellent uh it was cool to see like
08:57that philissa rose poppin jericho pop in clearly terrifier was catching on that this was likegonna be a cult classic um some really cool stuff yeah i think this one has a much more artistic voicei'm not gonna escape that work art art i think it has and like that's staring at me too as everytime we say that got joker um yeah i think he's looking at me there's so much moreit to, I think, the way everythingabout this movie is told, not just fromthe writing, but the directing as well.Like, in terms of, like, an improvement
09:29upon a sequel, like, you get somethingcompletely different. In someways, I was comparing some of thecinematography to how it looked like Terminator 1,but in a weird way,this is, you kind of comparethis to the Terminator franchise.I don't remember any of it.
09:45Okay, Terminator 1 is like a straightforward,there's a machine from the past,and then we've got to protect Sarah Connor.and then Terminator 2 becomes this likemuch bigger version of that story.I even said Sarah Connor at some point in thisbecause I was thinking Sarah Connor Chroniclesbut. Oh yeah, I was thinking of Sarah Connor
10:00and John, that's why I said like they're escapingthe Terminator here at this scene. Soand there's ways where you can't compare it tohow this one actually does decide to go biggerand as a franchise I actuallyrespect it becausewhen we were going into the secondone I really didn't want to watch it because I was like
10:16it's like it's longerso it's probably just waygorier. That's all that's all people made it sound to us. I know that it's so weird because I actuallydon't find this one to be more violent, more gory. It's longer. So there is some more, but therewas more downtime. I don't mean downtime in a bad way. I just mean room to breathe. Yeah. Tostorytell. Yeah, exactly. To actually have a movie. And that's what the director said. His problemwith the first one was not really playing out his protagonists, you know, not giving them thesearc stories, character building. And this one, I really feel like he did do that.
10:50and i like that you're able to take this story because like if you look at like theHalloween franchise they tried doing that whereas like a straightforward serial killer story and thenthey try to introduce the supernatural quality to it and some people like it some peopledon't and it seems like everyone got so on board for this and i'm on board for that to takesomething that's like just a direct okay killer clown movie cool and then turn it into thisgiant mythos of trying to unpack like youreally create a world now out of this what started off is what just seems like a killer clownmovie and turn it into something completely different and I think the shocks of the violence
11:31hits a little I don't know if it's harsher but it but it's because of the fact that there's moredowntime you settle in with just scenes whereas the first one it becomes a little numbing yeah becauseit's just it's just like so nonstop yeah true what did you think like when if I asked you what wasthe scariest moment in this movieIs there one that comes to mind?Because the first one, obviously, the most gory, horrifying moment is the slicing of the Vahian.Yeah.I don't know if these movies are only scary in the sense of like, I don't know how violent it's about to get and do I really want to watch it.
12:07You know what I mean?Like that's there a standout?I mean, the most violent one will be the girl in the bedroom for sure.Oh, my God.That was like, that was genuinely really gross.With her back and her scalp.But I'm really feeling like the director's more.interested in like this weird
12:22story. What about the beginning even when he took somebody'seyeball and put it in his head? That'sa little funny. Did you say that there's a third one?Yeah, third one's coming out. The third one should beout in the theaters by the timethis one's already out. And then we're going to coverit here. I wonder if it answers these questions, man. I hopethey do. I wonder if there's some trivia
12:40on this too. I got to know. Likethe budget was up forthis. We could obviously tell thatbut it still looked so much.

That's so funny.I opened IMDB and the first thing it says is coming soon, terrify our three.I wouldn't expect it to be only 250K because it felt large. And it, and it never felt like, um,
15:16by budget like oh this this scene needed to have more money or something like that i'd neverfelt that yeah it actually worked really well and but especially about how large of a cast it isbecause there's so many actors there were a lot of people in this one as opposed to the first one tooand that main girl is amazing yeah so i'm looking her up right now her name is loren lavera and she wasin an episode of iron fist she she has a lot of credits but i don't know anything dispatches fromelsewhere she was in as well as a barista so um looks like but itShe really carried this movie.I don't want to give you spoilers, but do you want to know something?
15:51Of what?Terrifier 3?Yeah.What do you mean?You just got a spoiler?Well, just she's in it.Oh, no, that's not big deal.Get the main girl's in it.
16:01All right.I'm looking up her credits.She's in it.Well, that's cool.So we're actually carrying on the story.Probably the brother, too, but I won't look.Yeah, that would be cool because that's how it should be.And they should explain, especially if there's like a relation to them, you know,
16:14which that part kind of feels like,scream in a lot of ways. Let's look. Okay. Let me look. Let me look. Here we go. Here we go. Here we go. Here we go. Here we go. There's a couple of other things I'd like to point out. Is that okay? Is it the sound? Is it the look? Is it the feel? No, no, no. It's about the hurt.That she was a beast. Yeah. Beyond the fact that she's a beast is like this film franchise is really interesting to me because it pitches itself as just kind of a play on a genre that we all know, just a slasher genre. And if you look at this is like,scream queen character you know she's a final girl character in so many ways but i think she reallyelevates beyond that with this whole like weird destiny um quality to it and she never struck me asthis character who was like so weak and then become strong like it was it actually felt likeappropriately human um the entire time i was really impressed with how they wrote her character likei would never there's nothing about the writing i really liked about the first one but this one there was
17:15elements of the writing actually like i agree i thought that she did such a great job she was such a standout i know we're not here yet but i do want to say because i saw this as you were saying itthe actress is trained in martial arts and she did most of her own stunts and i feel like that wasshe was amazing she was like seemed so uh sometimes you know when somebody hold the weaponand you're like you that's not how you would hold the weapon like everything's felt reallynatural on her um probably because she's kick ass and she had some guns too and i was like oh yeahYeah, like when she swung at Art's head, I was like, oh, it was a surprise.That was a really good swing.
17:51Totally.It looked like she knew what she was doing.Completely, I agree.Yeah.What else you got?Okay, let me see.So the scenes shot and terrify her haunted house were filmed in a real haunted house calledFright Factory in Philadelphia.
18:04Filmmakers used what was already available to them.That probably was a big cut cost.Wow.So all that authenticity was authentic.Yeah. Stephen King acknowledged the film on Twitter slash X with Terrifier to grossing you out old school.That'd be so cool to see.Yeah, maybe this one just got more attention because there's an actual story people could get behind,whereas the first one kind of just felt like gory schlock, you know?
18:31This is gross.And now I want to go back and look at her face.The pale little girl's prosthetic teeth were switched from upper to lower and vice versa to make her look more unsettling.Oh, smart.That is smart.The events of Terrifier 1 take place in the year 2017, and Terrifier 2 takes place one year later, so 2018.That answers our question about timing.That was great.
18:52Oh, I love that tie-in, too, to the timing.Oh, and it looks like they did that because of pandemic purposes, because they were complete before filming of Terrifier 2 began October 2019 and was almost complete before COVID-19 quarantines.Oh, geez.Really quick.I think that's really smart what they did at the beginning because that the first of terror fire one to have the opening seen me on the news report and then he breaks the TV and then that tied into this yeah it's a tie that in that when he did that that's what I'm kind of curious I'm like I don't know if it did but but to tie it in like that actually it to put that in like at beginning of act two or something is makes it feel like oh you're completing a story here now and it doesn't just feel like a gimmicky opening of the first one I feel like I feel like a gimmicky opening of the first one I feel like aJulia. When Brooks' boyfriend Jeff first appears at the Halloween party, he arrives wearing a ghost costume made of a white bed sheet with a pair of glasses, a direct reference to the original horror movie Halloween.Yep. That's cool. I love when people do that.Writer director Damien Leone stated on Instagram, Sienna is a character that he has been trying to get from page to screen for more than a decade.
20:04The writer director says she is my favorite character I've ever written and seeing Lauren Levera breathe life into her.has been an absolute dream come truethat I will cherish alwaysI cannot wait for all you terrify our fansto see her in action I promise you won't be disappointedyet Slavera was born to play Siennaso how we're feeling is exactly howhe felt and that absolutely shows
20:24which I thinkyeah I definitely really appreciate thatyeah it was a great level to how we wrote herand she's I mean she's obviously excellentbut again the writing of her was really well doneI don't know much aboutthis I guess there was somecontroversy you want me you want to hear about it or no uh you get to like kind of watch your words
20:46a little bit maybe yeah let's see what you what you have to do i guess there was allegations ofmisogyny from the director um he denied the allegations that he got after making terrifierthe first one so he was raised by women who taught him to love horror movies he spent a lot of timeinvesting in the character sienna for terrifier too because he wants the audience to root for her not for arta clown however he also stated the audienceoften subconsciously identifieswith the killer and that is virtuallyimpossible to create something in 2020s
21:17that doesn't offend anyone so I'm guessingthat that's probably about like thenudity of the first one and theslicingwhich I didn'tyou know take as misogynisticI thought that it fit thetone of the film
21:32yeah yeah totallywell he murders everybodylike yeah hegoing after her. And this movie has somoney. So much money. There's like so muchwomen in this movie. Yeah, for sure. SoI don't see that, but that's interesting. Well,originally planned for a limited
21:49theatrical release for a single weekend.The movie reached top 10 at the box officeon multiple weekends, and its theatrical runlasted well past Halloween.The film domestically grossedover $10 million on $250,000budget, a $39,000return on investment, making it the most
22:05profitable film of 2022.Oh, wow, really? Oh.that's coolthat's crazyoh this is coolDavid Howard Thorntonwho plays the silent artthe clown performed
22:16voiceover for the Art Krispiesserial commercialduring the dream sequenceoh funyou can actually hear his voicethat is funand then this onein case you didn't hear
22:27last time we talked about thisbut the movie was completelyindependently made productionmoney was raised through several sourceswithout the aid of a studioand writer director Damien Leonecreated all the special effectshimself in order to cut costs
22:38He was able to be uncompromising his depiction of violence and gorebecause there was no studio making demands or insisting on cuts.Well, I still think the first one...That's how you do it.I still think the first one was way grosser.Yeah, me too.It's interesting that you and I both have that feel.To have Terrifier 3 has a 91%?
22:57I never thought these...It's so weird. Usually critics don't like movies like this.I know you think they'd hate this.So what did Terrifier 1 have a score of?Let's find out.I think Terrifier 1 is the only one that's like kind of...That's Rodden.That's so weird to me because...
23:10Tarifier 1...Yeah, 58% critic.53%.With only 24 reviews.And then Terrifier 2 out of 80 reviews, 86%.That is honestly kind of nuts to me.Just because of the kind of movie this is...The critic consensus, Terrifier 2 out does the original in every way,
23:31which makes it bad news for the squeamish, but a bloody good time for the genre enthusiasts.Actually, the audience scores.what we were saying at the top of our review of likehardcore slasher fans,I wonder my Terrifier 2's Gore was so heavily hyped.Yeah, because I was here going like,oh, that's what it says.This is going to be the grossest thing in the world.
23:48And I was like,it was gross.It was gross.Yeah, it was gross.But it wasn't like the,yeah,I think the first one just feels like icky or twoand just like more mean.
23:59I think because of the seediness of it and likebecause of the darkness,because of the way it shot because it just was down and dirtyand brief.It feels like you're really,The first one feels like you're really trapped in arts like hellhouse, you know, where this one is, you're kind of like, what's going on in the story?You know, you're definitely, and it feels a little bit more like Halloween with the art, the clown touch to it.You know, like taking place on Halloween, going to people's houses, checking on the three girls.
24:25Is there anything you want to see from the third one?The third one out here is a holiday movie.Like a Christmas or Thanksgiving.I was going to see these both were holiday movies too, Halloween.Yeah.Well, the third one I'd like a little.little bit of exposition yeah like a little bit of like spell out just a couple things for me it'skind of crazy to see on rotten tomatoes terrifier three and then right next to a joker folia do
24:49and you could kind of compare some elements to the two of these movies i guess in the sense thatthey're clowns mental health there's commentary on mental health in a weird way yeahDamn, 91%.How many reviews?How many reviews?There's 23 right now.Wow.Can't get over.
25:12Okay, what are people saying?The best terrifier yet is one I read.Really?Yeah.All right.I guess we're going to get out of here.Any final thoughts, Greg?No, I enjoyed that more than I expected to.
25:24And I like that it's an actual movie and not just a gross time.Thank you to all you guys for following us on social.Thank you to Praper for editing us down.And thank you to chat GPT.for attempting to answer our questions.Chat deep, he didn't answer shit.It just didn't answer.We need you guys to leave comments on this one.
25:41If you understand the things that were happening better than we do, let us know.I'm going to read or a single one of them.And I bet you can catch us back here for Terrifier 3 whenever that comes out.Look at me, holding myself still.I look more like a beetle than before her.At some point, this was me for an hour.So I must have been really stressed because this is.me. Okay, later.
26:06I rejoice.
