How old do you need to be to watch Terrifier 3?
Terrifier 3 has no age rating as the Motion Picture Association has not given the film a PG, G, PG-13, NC-17, or R rating. Ratings are meant to classify films by considering language, violence, and nudity.
It is important to note that obtaining a rating is a voluntary process. Due to the intense depictions of violence in the Terrifier films, they are often released as unrated as getting an R rating becomes a difficult proposition.
The audience should remember that as the film is unrated, theaters showing the film can decide the age rating. This means that theatres showing the film are likely to ask viewers to carry IDs and those under 17 might not be allowed to watch without an accompanying adult.
The theaters likely to enforce this rule are Regal, AMC, and Cinemark. The UK has enforced the 17+ rule and France has restricted audiences under 18 to watch the film.
Which scenes should audiences look out for?
According to the British Board of Film Classification, there are certain gory and violent scenes in the film that the audience should watch out for. There are scenes where a serial killer pulls apart the faces of his victims!
There are also scenes where people are frozen with liquid nitrogen and have their limbs and heads cut off using chainsaws and axes. Apart from this, audiences can also expect to see victims drenched in blood, stabbed, shot, and slashed.
Terrifier 3 also contains a vivid s*x scene and another scene where a woman pleasures herself using a broken piece of glass. The film uses strong language repeatedly. The horror scenes also include a woman eating intestines from a dead body and a demonic entity helping a clown commit murders.
What to expect from Terrifier 3?
The film's plot is expected to be about Art the Clown who unleashes mayhem during Christmas.
Art the Clown comes back to torment Sienna Shaw just as she starts to get her life back together. This time, Art the Clown does not come alone as he brings along Victoria Heyes, his partner in crime. For those who have not seen the previous films and are wondering if they should, here is some advice. While talking to SlashFilm, Leone stated:
"No, especially you could probably get away with not seeing Terrifier 1, but I would highly recommend you see Terrifier 2."
Terrifier 3 will be released on October 11, 2024. Audiences can see the film in theatres near them.
