LOS ANGELES – New indie horror film Terrifier 3 opened atop the North American box office, while the previous weekend's leader, Joker: Folie A Deux, suffered a record plunge from its own debut, industry watchers reported on Oct 13.
Terrifier 3, from indie studio Cineverse and Icon Events, earned an estimated US$18.2 million (S$23.8 million) for the Friday-through-Sunday period, according to Exhibitor Relations. Analyst David Gross called that "an outstanding opening for a third episode in an indie horror series".
The slasher film has Art the Clown back to spread holiday fear – and plenty of blood and guts – with American actor David Howard Thornton again playing the psychopathic harlequin.
