This time, he\u2019s been pretty much silent.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cHe just goes, \u2018Oh yeah, you\u2019re gonna love the origin story, Dave. You\u2019re gonna love how we do it.\u2019 And he said also, \u2018The finale is bat-s*** insane. You\u2019re gonna have a lot of fun with that.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cOther than that, I don\u2019t know, but that makes me excited.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">While Thornton believes Terrifier 4 will wrap up Art the Clown\u2019s story nicely, the Screamboat star doesn\u2019t rule out Leone revisiting the franchise later down the line.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Thornton said: \u201cI feel like this might be the finale of this story arc that [Leone\u2019s] going with for right now and might give it a rest for a few years and might return later on to it. I have no idea, but I\u2019m excited nonetheless.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cI have so much faith in him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Leone had recently teased he was taking \u201csome bold swings\u201d with Terrifier 4.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">During an appearance on the Talk is Jericho podcast, he said: \u201cIt\u2019s going to be a really tough one to shoot, especially what I want to do in the last half hour of the movie \u2026 it\u2019s going to be really intense and experimental and really out there.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cLike crazier than anything I\u2019ve done before. It\u2019s going to have some really wild stuff in it. I\u2019m taking some bold swings.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The All Hallows\u2019 Eve director added Terrifier 4 was his favourite chapter in the slasher series.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He said: \u201cIt\u2019s my favourite one I would say, just as a viewer that I wish I didn\u2019t have to make. I just want to watch it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Speaking about where he was in terms of the movie\u2019s development process, Leone said he was \u201cfleshing out\u201d the story beats for Terrifier 4 now.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He explained: \u201cThe script is like halfway there. Well it\u2019s pretty much \u2026 cause I don\u2019t write until I have it like broken down in like beats on a separate page.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cSo, I have like bullet points, so I know where I\u2019m going so I\u2019m not just lost. Now it\u2019s just fleshing all those beats out.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cSo, I know what the movie is.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"David Howard Thornton has teased Terrifier 4 will be \u201cinsane\u201d.
