Art The Clown's Films Ranked:
The Terrifier series isn't just one movie. The story has been around for a long time, with films made between 2008 and 2024! Damien Leone, the creator behind this killer clown is a gifted artist and makes these terrifying moments come together so perfectly, blending gore and dark comedy into a new kind of slasher experience!
The Beginnings:
Everything started in 2008 with the short film "The 9th Circle." It was then that Art the Clown first made an appearance, appearing in one small part, making this one of the lesser-known films. It looks to be a quick appearance with lots of different monster characters, it wasn't meant to be an iconic start and you could certainly feel that from what was presented onscreen!
A bigger movie with a bunch of stories, but it isn't the star of the film! All Hallow's Eve, in 2013. While Art takes on the lead in this story as it unfolds, the overall story wasn't really what helped establish Art the Clown. This was a huge missed opportunity as the story focused too much on the wraparound and the stories within weren't all that good either.
What helped make Art the Clown even more well-known and show audiences just what Leone could really bring onscreen was the shorter film Terrifier which came out in 2011! While short in length this movie helps to really set the stage for this character who seems to appear unexpectedly on Halloween. While that was an exciting introduction this shorter version did establish Art the Clown's ability to appear out of nowhere. He also really shows just what kind of vicious attacks this special slasher villain is capable of. And shows his really amazing skills!
The Main Series:
This is where things get crazy with the popularity of the Terrifier franchise really skyrocketing! That really started in 2016. It seems the series truly established what it was all about with Terrifier.
What fans love about it is its raw thrills, an almost no-holds-barred attitude towards extreme violence.

A New Threat
It is truly impressive what Terrifier 3 did, a new milestone! It brings more intense action than the original! With tons of intense killings!
Even for people that might get queasy at times. It really shows some clever twists on classics as well. Its special approach at including a special visit from Santa Clause is going to be some of the memorable moments in the series. What helps push this series, to even greater heights. Even those moments that could be really gory. It was one where Damien Leone gave viewers something more than those scenes.
- A great approach at giving the franchise some history.
- Showing that the battle against Art the Clown might just be a bit more biblical than we could imagine.
The last bit really gives an impressive addition as well. Adding Vicky who could even be the new "Harley Quinn to Art the Clown's Joker."
It was even better because it seems there are forces that fans could never guess before!
