The torture-porn market has been sewn up by Damien Leone’s Terrifier series, which does practical effects more imaginatively and gruesomely than this.
John Nugent • Empire • Aug 6, 2026

The film desperately wants to become the next Terrifier or Weapons, yet never understands what made either of those films memorable in the first place.

This is Terrifier levels of carnage…

Straight out of the Terrifier school of marketing, Ice Cream Man sells itself as little more than a sideshow for bad taste kills engineered to “getcha.”

Roth has said in promotion of this movie that he was emboldened to make Ice Cream Man by the success of the Terrifier franchise, as audiences were proving that they were willing to turn up in droves to see heinously violent movies on the big screen.

Clown in a Cornfield poster
…in a range of clown horror, Clown in a Cornfield fell in the middle between It and Terrifier: not quite serious and yet not quite too outrageous.

With Damien Leone’s Terrifier proving the existence of a dedicated clown slasher fan base, Clown in a Cornfield’s Frendo couldn’t be hitting the silver screen at a better time.

Whether it’s Killer Klowns from Outer Space, Pennywise from Stephen King’s It, or most recently Art from Terrifier, are audiences prepped for a new clown who’s neither syrupy nor sweet?

Películas recientes como The Substance, Longlegs, Terrifier, M3GAN o incluso fenómenos alejados del terror sirven como materia prima para una sucesión constante de sketches que encuentran en la exageración su principal herramienta cómica.

It’s safe to say Art the Clown with the Terrifier franchise has influenced the horror genre, pushing more filmmakers to lean on practical gore and effects.

The kills also deliver a queasy laugh quotient, akin to a “Terrifier” film where we know what happens next but the anticipation is darkly comic.

He would definitely love Art the Clown from the Terrifier franchise as they’re both characters who waste no time in killing their prey, spilling as much guts and blood as they possibly can.
