At the end of the day, Terrifier 3 isn’t trying to reinvent the slasher genre—it’s here to elevate it and inject some much needed life. This is horror for horror’s sake, and that’s something worth celebrating. It’s here to give the audience a relentless parade of grotesque killings, absurd moments of dark humor, and a villain who has earned his place as one most critical modern icons. If you’ve been following Art’s bloody rise to infamy, this third installment will only solidify his place as one of the most sinister characters in the horror pantheon.

Horror Stories is exactly what you want from a project like this–despite production limitations and other recognizable constraints, it does an excellent job of working with the available tools. Any criticisms you could lob at it–corny premise, limited originality, etc.--kind of fall silent as the collection simply does so many things above films in the same class. I want to see more from everyone involved with Horror Stories.

‘Hell House LLC: The Carmichael Manor feels like a distinctly modern found footage movie, not getting waylaid or distracted, keeping the scenes moving and putting plentiful scares throughout. The fourth installment of Hell House LLC has renewed my interest in the series, and comes close to surpassing the excellent original chapter. I believe Cognetti and company really made a creative effort with this film, both to do something new and expand on the work of the original trilogy, and the results are decidedly successful.’

‘Kills sacrifice style in the name of brutality, and the scriptwriting is a joke. This is horror at its trashiest, for better or worse.’
