In case you were already wondering what Christmas-themed horror treats you may sit down to check out towards the end of 2024, here's Art the Clown to offer up the chance of some festive slicing 'n' dicing.

Truthfully, the first two Terrifier films aren't for everyone, but those who've embraced the antics of Art in those pictures - and in All Hallow's Eve or even The 9th Circle - will be delighted to know that this sinister harlequin is returning for Terrifier 3; once again from writer/director Damien Leone.

Set for a 25 October release - aiming for the typical Halloween market and also being revisitable in time for the Holidays - Terrifier 3 is a Christmas-themed affair which will also bring back Samantha Scaffidi's Victoria Heyes, Lauren LaVera's Siena Shaw, and Elliott Fullam's Jonathan Shaw. Oh, and Chris Jericho will be involved again.

Bar the Christmas setting, no particular specifics have been made public just yet, although the early teaser trailer for Terrifier 3 of course promises more of the same opinion-splitting carnage of David Howard Thornton's Art - as you can see for yourself:
