Cineverse and Bloody Disgusting are reteaming with Iconic Events Releasing as the theatrical distribution partner for Terrifier 3 from filmmakers Damien Leone and Phil Falcone.
First reported by Variety this afternoon, the Terrifier 3 announcement was made at CinemaCon, taking place this week in Las Vegas, and as the film wraps production in New Jersey.
Terrifier 3 will release in theaters nationwide October 25, 2024!
We previously partnered on distribution for Terrifier 2, 2022’s instant cult slasher sensation, which was produced on a micro-budget and went on to scare up more than $15 million at the global box office, generating significant buzz and a scary amount of press coverage, and popping up everywhere from Saturday Night Live and Bupkis to rap lyrics and ugly holiday sweaters.
“Iconic absolutely crushed it for us with Terrifier 2,” said Cineverse VP Business Development and Managing Director of Bloody Disgusting, Brad Miska. “When the film went viral, they did a tremendous job keeping up with the hype and helped us secure thousands of screens across the country. With several months to plan, we know they’re the perfect partner to help us take the franchise to the next level with Terrifier 3.”
Art the Clown is set to unleash chaos on the unsuspecting residents of Miles County as they peacefully drift off to sleep on Christmas Eve.
“Iconic Events is thrilled to be able to continue our partnership with Cineverse and showcase the next Terrifier film in the only way it’s meant to be seen…on the big screen,” said Steve Menkin, President & Co-Founder of Iconic Events Releasing. “The response from fans for Terrifier 2 was overwhelming and we are excited to give them more of everything that they have come to expect from the Terrifier theatrical experience.”
Terrifier 3 was named by USA Today as one of the Top 10 most anticipated Horror films of 2024.
