Terrifier 4 Could Be Taking Place in Prison?

I’m curious how the next installment is going to handle this rumored plot.

Terrifier 4 is finally going to start filming in September of this year, and we horror fans have heard a rumor about the plot to the final film. Art the Clown is apparently going to be arrested, and taken to prison. I think Art is going to allow the capture to happen, so that he will find a way to cause more chaos and death. And something tells me that this dude is going to have tons of fun killing multiple people, if this rumor is actually true.

Sienna, the main final girl in the franchise, will also end up getting arrested too, but how they will end up in the same prison is a bit far-fetched. There are also rumors that Art is going to be rescued by another evil entity, and they will work together to find a way to open a portal to hell within the prison.

While this idea does sound pretty neat, I have one major concern.

I don’t think I want Art’s origin story to be explained.

His character is already so fascinating and terrifying, do we really need to hear where this dude came from? The theory of this clown coming from the depths of hell to bring nothing but Hell on Earth is already such a damn good concept. So…do we really need a backstory on this guy?

Hopefully it won’t take away from his character, but Art is honestly so damn entertaining, so I don’t think it will ruin his character. He's one of the few slashers with no voice, but his expressions are amazing, and we can literally feel what his character is feeling. He's so original, and man, that actor did a phenomenal job playing this character!

There are also multiple theories that Art is secretly Sienna’s father, but I guess we will find out in the next film.

And I also don’t know how to feel about that theory either…like...wouldn't that be kind of weird? I know I'm already judging a bit early, since the film is barely about to go into production, but man...I think that the clown being her father is so freaking strange. How will they even be able to execute such a huge twist like that?

While the plot can vary with many fans of the franchise, we all know that the majority of us are here for the brutal kills that take place in this franchise. Like seriously, I haven't seen kills that BRUTAL in horror. Art the Clown is one of the few slashers I would hate to be caught by.

I would rather square up against Michael Myers. Dude would finish me off quick, without wanting to make me suffer like Art. That bastard clown literally has the power to keep you alive as long as he wants. I'm not playing, that is one of the abilities that Art has.

It makes total sense, because I would have been so lost with why so many of his victims are still alive after so much torture.

Alright, sorry about the huge rant I did there with his character. Art is one of the few slashers that I can write about for hours. He's one of the best slashers in horror history, and wow, dude got a cult following after only THREE films. That is honestly one of the best achievements in horror, and the cast and crew should be damn proud for pulling the impossible off!

So, how do you horror fans feel about this rumored plot with the prison setting? Do you think Art is Sienna's father? And do you find this rumor dumb or not?
