With Terrifier 3 getting an update just a few days ago, it looks like Art the Clown is about to get a fresh run in theaters this summer. It's been announced today that due to the popularity of the character and the franchise, that the original Terrifier will be getting a theatrical release in July. The Hollywood Reporter released an article earlier today saying that the movie would be get a re-release in 700 theaters in the United States. 

The special release comes on the tail of Dread and Iconic Events pairing up. The two worked together on the theatrical run of Terrifier 2 and are attempting to get more eyes on the character of Art prior to the production of the third film. The Damien Leone directed movies have drummed up a huge cult following which in turn is getting Terrifier 3 an even bigger budget. 

"Every once in a while, a film genre spawns a generational talent who breaks the mold. Damien Leone is such a visionary director", said Iconic Events president Steven Menkin.
