The filmmakers used whatever was already available to them
Tale
After being resurrected by a sinister entity, Art the Clown returns to the quiet town of Miles County, where he targets a teenage girl and her younger brother on Halloween night. Scenes filmed at the haunted house in “Terrifier” were shot at a real haunted house called the Fright Factory in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Art’s favorite acid is fluoroantimonic acid, which he has in a clear glass bottle. It is a super acid that can dissolve even glass.
Art the Clown:
There is a mid-credits scene in a mental hospital with Chris Jericho as security guard Alan Burke and Leah Voysey as the nurse. The German DVD and Blu-ray releases by Tiberius Film cut approximately three minutes to ensure a “No Under 18” rating (this was necessary because the guidelines for video releases are stricter than for theatrical releases). Basically, all of the violent scenes were cut to tone down the violence. Nameless Media’s Mediabook 4K Ultra-HD Blu-ray releases are completely uncut and received a mild SPIO/JK thumbs up.

The Equaliser (Not Alone) Written by Tim McEwan and Tyler Lyle (as Jamison Tyler Lyle) Starring The Midnight Courtesy of BMG Platinum Songs U.S. (BMI). Hands down the most violent slasher I’ve seen in a long time. Would have rated it even higher if it had been edited more sharply.
I’ve never seen a two-hour slasher thriller before this one
The attempt at backstory ends up being downright laughable by the end. However, the kills are so extreme they’d make your hair stand on end. Many viewers reportedly vomited during the screening, and it’s easy to see why. The amount of blood spilled and mass torn apart is on the higher end of the violence spectrum.
It is an unpleasant film, but truly memorable, due to the inventiveness of the cruelty
With a budget of less than a million and a gross of almost 3 million, this seems to be a winning formula for the studio.
