Summary
AlthoughTerrifier 3is one of 2024 ’s most highly anticipated repugnance movies , I can see only one fitting way for Art the Clown ’s story to end . I could never have predicted theTerrifierfranchise ’s rise to infamy . While 2016’sTerrifiercertainly unsettled me the first time I assure the viral indie horror , I did n’t think that it would engender a continuation that earned $ 11 million . AlthoughTerrifier 2was a piddling more accessible despite its extremely violent content , the fact that2024 ’s upcomingTerrifier 3will receive a mainstream across-the-board liberation globally still shove off my mind .
TheTerrifiermovies pride themselves on their grungy , gross aesthetic , and evenTerrifier 2 ’s budget addition did n’t make the sequel ’s nastiness any less abrasive . Terrifier 2 ’s endingdid leave the door opened for a sequel , but the film ’s unheralded achiever mean that 2024’sTerrifier 3will now be an unlikely event movie among repulsion lover . Despite the enfranchisement ’s popularity , however , I still struggle to see how the serial publication will wrap up the storey of Art the Clown without betraying the heart of the franchise . TheTerrifiermovies are inherently edgy and morose , unlike most slasher end .
Terrifier 3 must explicate what Art the Clown is , how to defeat him , the Little Pale Girl ’s line , and so many more lingering enfranchisement secret .
Terrifier 3’s Art The Clown Can’t Kill Sienna
Terrifier 2’s Heroine Is The Franchise’s Main Character
Although the slasher has a ferocious reputation , it is worth remark that the subgenre has almost always allowed its Final Girls to emerge triumphant in the end . For every villain likeScream ’s Ghostface orHalloween ’s Michael Myers , there is a heroine like Sydney Prescott or Laurie Strode who can defeat them . Terrifiercomplicated this with a nihilistic ending where Art unceremoniously killed one manifest last Girl without much ostentation and horrifically blemish another . This show thatArt the Clownis no ordinary slasher baddie and the series is no normal enfranchisement , butTerrifier 2walked this back .
If Sienna crush Art , this will be predictable and surprisingly schematic .
Lauren LaVera’sTerrifier 2heroine Sienna overcome Art , albeit temporarily , in the sequel ’s ending . In the physical process , Sienna arguably catch up with Art the Clown as theTerrifierfranchise ’s admirer , even though the creepy killer remains the mascot of the series . Sienna is the only one who has defeated Art and successfully stopped him from killing someone , so it would now be a letdown if he beat her inTerrifier 3 . That said , if Sienna pulsate Art , this will be predictable and surprisingly conventional for such a boundary - pushing serial publication . I ca n’t see how the dealership ’s Creator will work around this .

Terrifier 3 Can’t Let Sienna Defeat Art The Clown For Good
Art The Clown’s Unstoppable Nature Is Part Of His Appeal
Art the Clown is explicitly supernatural and even more indestructible than Freddy , Jason , or Michael Myers , with each movie make him more unstoppable . As such , Sienna ca n’t have a clean win against him . I’d be let down if Sienna simply down Arteven if he did return from the numb , since this would essay that his power level was n’t as impressive as it seemed in the earliest motion-picture show . However , I ’d also be disheartened if Sienna was kill off afterTerrifier2 ’s story focused on her . Sienna ’s belated father seemed to be connected to the dealership scoundrel , as implied by her aspiration .
I ca n’t envisage a version of Sienna ’s death that does n’t find like a cop - out .
WhileTerrifier 3doesn’t need Art ’s origins explained , I ’d still wish the sequel to at least rationalize the link between Art and Sienna . WhereTerrifier ’s last girlfriend were both simply in the incorrect place at the ill-timed time , Sienna distinctly has some psychic connection to Art , much like the Pale Little Girl . This means that she is pivotal to the trilogy ’s overarching chronicle , so artistry only shooting her in the read/write head would be less subversive and more bothersome . I ca n’t imagine a interpretation of Sienna ’s death that does n’t find like a cop - out , but there is another option .

Terrifier 3 Must End With Art The Clown Enlisting Sienna
The Mean-Spirited Horror Franchise Hinted At This Downbeat Ending
The originalTerrifier ’s hold up Final Girl , Victoria , lost her brain after the events of the first film and was finally possessed by Art . If the same destiny befell Sienna , this would explain her connection to artwork and tolerate both her and the villain to survive the subsequence at the same time . This would also be the cruelest ending potential , which is always what theTerrifierseries aims for . Terrifier 3 ’s big budgetmay lead its Lord to make a more palatable sequel that plays to a large audience , but this would cuckold the spirit of the serial publication .
At their core , theTerrifiermovies are aggressive , almost comically filthy , and brutal . I ’m not indisputable ifTerrifier 3can keep the edginess of the enfranchisement live or if the sequel will shin to outdo its gore - soaked predecessors . However , I am sealed that Sienna ’s relationship with Art the Clown will be central toTerrifier 3 ’s achiever or bankruptcy . IfTerrifier 3can keep Sienna awake without settling for a happy conclusion that betrays the tone of the enfranchisement , the serial publication can end its trilogy perfectly .
