Less a story than a sequence of gory set pieces, Terrifier is a straightforward throwback slasher as a peculiarly and oddly creepy clown figure cuts his way through one Halloween night. Perhaps refreshingly lacking any kind of origin story to hold up the action, the film delivers on plentiful gloopy physical effects that work very well for its limited budget. Inevitably, the spirits of Raimi and Carpenter loom large, but this low-budget entry is clearly made by people who know and love horror, right down to the effective synth-driven score.
