What's black and white but will make you red all over?
Torture porn was all the rage in the 2000s. Films like the Hostel and Saw franchises ruled our screens. We tasted gallons of blood and wanted more – much more. In many ways, torture porn within horror trends during periods of general nihilism that tend to occur during moments of political strife.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Slasher icons tend to speak to some aspect of anxiety stemming from primarily young adult experiences. Michael Myers shook babysitters in the suburbs to their core, Jason Voorhees made bullying camp counselors trade in sunscreen for blood, and Ghostface had us side-eyeing our friends who liked horror films just a little too much. Slashers largely became symbolic of moral enforcers for the teens who just couldn’t stay out of each other’s pants and away from the booze.
Just like Art, it seems like we just can’t manage to take anything seriously anymore. To a large extent, at the risk of sounding a wee bit melodramatic, the internet has substantially brought about quite a bit of desensitization toward real-life terror. With two sweeps of the thumb, we can scroll down our timelines and come across news articles chronicling world atrocities sandwiched between cute pictures of cats or the latest viral trends.
The Rise of the Art Cinematic Universe Seemingly in direct response to our jadedness toward violence, the Terrifier films dial everything we think we know about the genre up to 10. The gore never stops, and the elaborate set pieces make other horror films look like child’s play. Leone knows what his audiences want, and they receive it in abundance.
Terrifier 2 was released in theaters on October 6th and the demand for showings has quickly spread like wildfire. Viral photos have shown theater patrons who have thrown up and fainted during the movie, with paramedics at their sides, which has only worked to increase its allure. Watching Terrifier 2 in theaters is almost a badge of honor at this point.
