Terrifier 3 director Damien Leone reveals his disliked franchise theories and teases a character’s ambiguous fate. The future of the franchise holds many mysteries.
Terrifier 3 director Damien Leone discussed his least favorite theories during Monster-Mania Con’s screening and Q&A. One theory involves the identity of Art the Clown being Sienna’s father, while another suggests Jonathan is not dead. Leone stated that these questions won’t be answered immediately and that the saga’s conclusion will clarify everything.
The identity of Art the Clown remains a mystery, and the fate of Jonathan is also uncertain. Theories about Art’s connection to Sienna and Jonathan’s late father, Michael, began after Terrifier 2. In Terrifier 3, Michael appears in Sienna’s dreams, but it’s not clear if he is connected to Art. The film leaves Jonathan’s fate open-ended, and a similar trick was used earlier to mislead about another character’s death.
As Leone teased, there are many questions remaining, but when the Terrifier franchise ends, everything should make sense. The release of Terrifier 3 sets the stage for more installments and raises the stakes. Audiences will have to wait to see how the story unfolds regarding Art the Clown and Jonathan’s fate.
