Terrifier 3 tops North America box office with $23.8m debut

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.
