Terrifier 2 is one of the most boring films I've ever seen. It's 150 minutes and maybe 60 mins are actually violent horror scenes, the rest is awful acting, pathetic dialogue and cheap cinematography.
Terrifier 3 still has awful acting and dialogue, but the ratio of Art to non-art scenes is monumentally better. Here, art is probably in line 70% of the flick. Plus the cinematography and gore effects are so much better and the kills are far more inventive.
I'm genuinely stunned by how Terrifier 2 thought that any of its paper thin nothing characters were supposed to keep audience interest, but it looks like they've rectified that. The director now understands that he isn't good at writing or story ideas, he makes basic "spooky clown with a chainsaw" scenes for TikTok tweens, but this film actually delivers. Words can't describe how much better than the 2nd movie this one is.

I was told that this was a slasher parody movie, but it's actually just a generic slasher with a bunch of "well, THAT just happened" humour.
This whole experience was cringeworthy. The jokes are overwritten, second-rate Joss Whedon lines that would only make teens giggle. It's funny because the detectives are names Hobbs and Shaw! Get it! It's like that movie! I remember that thing!
There's also a shameless rip-off of the Hot Fuzz crossword joke. The acting is pretty bad, and it makes it worse that it's also so smarmy and indulgent . Like, they think they've nailed it. I've seen everything this movie does, done better in a dozen slasher movies. It's a slasher for babies.
As soon as the metal straw is set up, anyone with a brain cell knows that it'll be used in the climax. There's no consequences, because the main characters are never in danger of dying. The killer forgets how to do the most basic things when the main characters are being attacked, plus they let them live conveniently many times.
Also, some 27 year old is headlining a major international corporation's ad campaign? And no one in that office has heard of the super famous serial killer who murders people on Valentine's Day that's plastered on the new all the time. Contrived and lazy.

This show would be better if each team didn't have 3 members. The questions are far easier than normal Jeopardy, so why are there now 9 people instead of 3?
I'm continually amazed that Colin Jost is famous, he's the least charismatic snl performer ever, and that's saying something. But I guess when you're super boring and plain, you are never in danger of rocking the boat of threatening power. But even so, he has zero personality or interesting quirks. Isn't he supposed to be funny or something? Why doesn't he crack any jokes on this show?
The questions don't really get much harder than the most basic buzzfeed quiz, and the moments in between the actual trivia parts are cringeworthy and annoying.
