As you’ve probably seen by now, Terrifier 3 seems to be living up to the reputation of the first two films.
The movie hasn't even had a wide release yet and already we’re seeing mass walkouts, viewers throwing up, ambulances showing up to screenings, and now – two people passing out in the same screening of the film.
The film carries on the story of Terrifier 2 and sees Lauren LaVera’s Sienna Shaw making it out of a psychiatric unit following the trauma of the second film.

As she does, Art the Clown is back – and this time around he’s terrorising families just in time for Christmas as a horrifying psychopathic Santa.
Terrifier and Terrifier 2 feature some of the bloodiest and goriest scenes in all of cinema, most notably a scene in the sequel where a woman is scalped, before salt and bleach is poured on her sliced up back.

In the new film however, it appears that the gory scenes will be topping that (somehow).
Having seen it, I can’t spoil it, but some of the bloody murders are right up there with some of the worst ever put to film.

One Rotten Tomatoes verified Australian film critic by the name of Emma Wolfe revealed that two people passed out at her early screening of the movie.

She claimed one fainted in the opening scene, and another later on in the film.
She said in her review on YouTube, which was shared by director Damien Leone: “Can you tell me... why did two people faint right in front of me during that film?

“Both trying to run down the stairs to get out of the cinema because they felt so queasy.
“This poor girl gashed her head open, I felt so bad for her. I went and checked on her afterwards.
“She did get help. She was with her friend. It really shook me up too. It just took me out of the film for a moment.
“I'm not used to horror actually hurting people, so that was a really strange experience.

She went on to rebuke any criticism she expected to get, saying: “Before anyone says they're paid actors, I saw the girl and she had injuries.
“They were both very young people. I feel really awful about it to be honest.
“It was a very scary moment trying to help them out.”
A second person tweeted about the scenes from the screening to verify it.
The film is out this week 11 October in the UK, and if the early reactions are anything to go by – cinema attendants are going to have a busy weekend with Joker 2 walkouts and Terrifier 3 viewers collapsing left, right and centre.
