As Damien Leone’s Terrifier is a Dread Central Presents title, we will NOT be reviewing it here, ESPECIALLY because the film speaks for itself… That being said, a host of other sites have been singing the film’s praises so we figured we’d put together a compilation of sorts to let the other critics and fans be heard.
Terrifier will be cutting a swath of carnage through theaters beginning TODAY so make sure you GET YOUR TERRIFIER TICKETS IN ADVANCE!
