It is limited to the audience that likes bloody, violent and brutal crimes without any explanation
In Miles County, Art the Clown (David Howard Thornton) is mysteriously resurrected at the morgue and kills the coroner (Cory DuVal) at the start of his Halloween night murder spree. Teenagers Sienna (Lauren LaVera) and her brother Jonathan (Elliott Fullam) are hunted by Art and his partner, Little Pale Girl (Amelie McLain)."Terrifier 2" is an awful and stupid slasher, the sequel to the movie “Terrifier”, with incredible hype. The nonsensical plot again offers no explanation of who Art the Clown is, or how he was resurrected, or why he’s a serial killer. In the middle of the credits, there is a nasty final scene that indicates that there will be another sequel.
