After the major success of Terrifier 2, it's no shock that they're ramping up work on a third entry in the Art the Clown cinematic universe. The clown was originally introduced in the All Hallow's Eve anthology film, then went on to his very own microbudgeted horror flick, Terrifier. Art then returned in the sequel which cost roughly $250,000 to produce. The film went on to be a box office hit and helped other smaller budgeted indie horror flicks become successful in 2022. 

Now, it looks like Terrifier 3 is making some real momentum. It's been revealed that the France based distributor, The Coven has begun it's marketing and sales for the third installment. They're reporting that the newest Art the Clown feature will be in production during the fourth quarter of 2023 and will be ready for audiences in 2024. 

Star David Howard Thornton (Art the Clown) and Lauren LaVera (Sienna) will both be back for Terrifier 3. It's being reported that the film will see a drastic increase in budget up to the "low-mid seven figure range".
