The filmmakers used what they already had
Synopsis
After being resurrected by a sinister entity, Art the Clown returns to a shy Miles County town where he targets a teenage girl and her younger brother on Halloween night. Scenes shot in the movie "Terrifier" haunted house was filmed at a real haunted house called the Fright Factory in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Art’s favorite acid is fluoroantimonic acid, which he keeps in a clear glass bottle. It’s a super acid that can dissolve even glass..
Tiberius Film German DVD and Blu-ray releases are reduced by approx
Clown Art: ………. A mid-credits scene in a mental hospital featuring Chris Jericho as guard Alan Burke and Lea Voisey as a nurse .. three minutes to ensure the "Not Under 18" rating (this was necessary because the guidelines for video releases are stricter than theatrical releases). Basically every violent scene was cut to tone down the violence.

The Equalizer (Not One) By Tim McEwan & Tyler Lyle (as Jamison Tyler Lyle) Performed by BMG Platinum Songs U.S. (BMI) Courtesy of The Midnight. Bloody mayhem and a decent story.
Writing takes work, and lots of it
If you like slasher horror, this is right up your alley. Adult authority figures are irrational and overreact, while children don’t wink, it’s uncomfortable and unrealistic. The secondary character’s dialogue is also awkward and seems like it wasn’t given much thought after the first draft. The art is heartless and insidious, showing a more personal presence this time around, becoming a horror icon as the goofiest killer who clearly loves what he’s doing.
This movie is fun to watch, flaws aside, and I’m excited for Terrifier 3
The gory effects are great and hopefully with the success of Terrifier 2 the third one will bring a bigger budget with higher quality actors and writers.
