wears a jester costume with pom-pom buttons and a white bald harlequin head cover, and he’s got licorice-black teeth frozen into a rictus grin , a hooked nose that looks like something out of an anti-Semitic caricature from the ’30s, a small top hat cocked to the side of his head, and a general attitude of it-only-hurts-you-when-I-laugh blood-soaked dementia. That laugh of Art’s is a real keeper, because it’s, like Marcel Marceau’s.
The movie, which unfolds in a kind of slasher dreamscape, is a slaughterhouse burlesque that owes more than a little to the gore-gore ingenuity of Herschell Gordon Lewis, who invented the splatter film 60 years ago with “Blood Feast” and “Two Thousand Maniacs.” “Terrifier 2” is a horror comedy, but its only real joke is how total the carnage is.
I was curious to see “Terrifier 2,” because in the last decade or so there has been, at times, a lurid creative spark to the genre we might call Extreme Horror.
I was disappointed that such an analogy was utilized in this review. I know many of the people who love this movie and they’re kind, progressive, empathetic folks. This article reduces them to a negative caricature with questionable morals. 😕
