The Australian government has issued a stern warning to horror fans flocking
to cinemas to see the ultra-violent slasher film Terrifier 3, cautioning audiences about its extreme content and disturbing
themes.
The film, directed by Damien Leone, has drawn huge crowds since it's release
on October 10, as it continues the blood-soaked saga of Art the
Clown with more gruesome, stomach-churning scenes.
The movie has broken box office records as horror enthusiasts are lured in by the film's reputation for intense violence and
shock value.
The Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications,
and the Arts has warned Australian audiences to prepare for scenes of graphic violence,
dismemberment and disturbing themes that go well beyond
typical horror fare.
The film includes brutal depictions of murder
using a variety of weapons, from chainsaws to axes and guns, resulting in explicit injury detail and copious
amounts of blood.
The warning also highlights that the movie portrays self-harm, cannibalism, animal cruelty and violence involving children, pushing the boundaries of what the most hardened horror fans has seen before.
One of the film's more controversial moments includes a scene
of implied masturbation coupled with self-harm, along with a shower scene that hints at sexual activity.

In addition, male genital nudity and obscured shots of female breast and buttock nudity have caused concern among viewers and the classification board alike.
The film's R18+ rating in Australia is due to its high impact violence,
blood, gore and explicit sexual content.
Despite these warnings, audiences have turned out in droves.

This latest instalment of the Terrifier franchise is a
continuation of the sadistic horror unleashed by Art the Clown, a character who has now become
a modern horror icon for his relentless brutality.
In Terrifier 3, Art's reign of terror continues, once again targeting Sienna Shaw who narrowly survived his attacks in the previous movie.
Sienna, portrayed by actress Lauren LaVera, takes on Art in a deadly showdown that is as gory as it is horrifying, featuring scenes
of decapitations, dismemberments and visceral body horror.

The Terrifier franchise, which began in 2016, quickly
gained a cult following due to its extreme violence and over-the-top death scenes.
The first film, which saw Art the Clown mutilate
a victim with a hacksaw, shocked audiences with its brutal
kill sequences.
The sequel, Terrifier 2, went viral last year after reports emerged that
viewers were fainting and vomiting in cinemas due to its graphic content.
Now, with Terrifier 3, Leone has doubled down on the carnage,
taking the gore to new, unsettling levels.
Despite Australia's strict film censorship laws, Terrifier
3 was approved for theatrical release with a strong warning attached.
The film's notoriety has only heightened its
appeal to horror fans, who continue to fill cinemas across the country.
Earlier this month, two people fainted and fled for
the exit when it hit a Perth cinema for early previews.
According to multiple eye witness accounts, one young woman badly
injured herself after she fell down the cinema stairs while fleeing the movie theatre.
'This is going to sound made up and I promise you it's not,' Australian horror film critic Emma Clarke began her review of David Leone's controversial new horror-slasher.
The Rotten Tomatoes verified critic said two people fainted right in front of her during the screening she attended
at Innaloo Cinemas in Perth over the weekend.
The first fainted during the opening scene, she said in her film review shared to YouTube, and the second nearer to the end of the two-house spectacle.
'Can you tell me... why did two people feint right in front
of me during that film?' she said.
'Both trying to run down the stairs to get to the bathrooms because they felt so queasy.'
The horror film fanatic said she spoke to both people and tried to assist them because she
was seated directly behind them.
The first was a man, who left with a friend who came to check on him, and second Australian victim was a young woman.
'This poor girl gashed her head open as
she fell down the stairs, I felt so bad for her. I went and checked on her afterwards,' Clarke
claimed.
'She did get help. She was with her friend. It really shook me up too.
It actually took me out of the film for the moment.'
The reviewer, who has been sharing her thoughts on scary movies for
the past four years, said she has never seen audience members have such a visceral reaction to a film.
Many cinema-goers in Sydney and Melbourne reportedly clapped and cheered during some of the
film's most grotesque death scenes
Clarke described the third installment of Leone's series —
which is set to open nationally on Thursday, October 11 — as ' fun, intense, gory, disturbed,
and over the top.'
'I'm not used to horror actually hurting people, so that
was a really strange experience,' she said.
'Before anyone says they're paid actors, I saw the girl and
she had injuries. They were both very young people. I feel really awful about it
to be honest.'
'It was a very scary moment trying to help them out.'
