Terrifier 2
After you watch Skinamarink on Shudder, head to Screambox to watch 2022’s other much-discussed low-budget breakout, which similarly demands a lot of patience from its viewer. That said, though it’s nearly two and a half hours long, Terrifier 2 has a much livelier pace, and it’s brimming with some of the most knowingly gratuitous, gleefully staged gore effects in recent memory. Some of the acting is a bit uneven, but all is mostly forgiven thanks to David Howard Thornton’s ghoulishly charismatic performance as Art the Clown—a character so unnerving you’ll be asking “Pennywise who?” once you see him in action.
