3
00:00:40.100 --> 00:00:43.733
Art, the clown's a huge part
of Terrifi Fire's success.

4
00:00:46.866 --> 00:00:50.100
Ultimately, I think it is
the charisma of the character

5
00:00:50.100 --> 00:00:51.666
and the humor.

6
00:00:51.666 --> 00:00:53.733
And a lot of that comes
from David Howard Thornton,

7
00:00:53.733 --> 00:00:55.300
who plays Art the Clown.

8
00:00:58.633 --> 00:01:01.500
I mean, like that, that
grin, that white pale face.

9
00:01:01.500 --> 00:01:03.300
Like everybody looks at that

10
00:01:03.300 --> 00:01:06.100
and there's a little bit
of like uneasiness to him

11
00:01:06.100 --> 00:01:07.133
because you know what's funny?

12
00:01:07.133 --> 00:01:09.300
Because a lot of people hate

13
00:01:09.300 --> 00:01:10.766
Clowns.

14
00:01:10.766 --> 00:01:14.700
So the amazing thing about
art is that we don't have

15
00:01:14.700 --> 00:01:16.966
to do much to promote him.

16
00:01:16.966 --> 00:01:20.366
He, he promotes himself
starring, I'll just say it,

17
00:01:21.233 --> 00:01:23.133
horror's newest

18
00:01:23.133 --> 00:01:26.000
Icon Art the clown.

19
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:29.366
I was, I was lucky that
that face really resonated

20
00:01:29.366 --> 00:01:30.633
with, with people.

21
00:01:30.633 --> 00:01:34.500
But again, I think it's
just classic imagery

22
00:01:34.500 --> 00:01:37.466
that we're very familiar
with, that's ingrained in us.

23
00:01:38.633 --> 00:01:41.066
You really like him.

24
00:01:41.066 --> 00:01:45.033
You want to see who he is.

25
00:01:45.033 --> 00:01:48.533
Arthur Clown is very violent
and vicious, and he goes crazy.

26
00:01:48.533 --> 00:01:49.433
Cold-blooded

27
00:01:52.833 --> 00:01:54.266
love's killing for fun.

28
00:01:54.266 --> 00:01:56.133
I think that's what makes
'em very, very scary.

29
00:01:56.133 --> 00:01:58.700
I love the villain. I think
most people love the villain.

30
00:01:58.700 --> 00:02:01.066
They're just interesting.
They're iconic looking.

31
00:02:04.233 --> 00:02:06.000
There was something
about Art the Clown

32
00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:09.000
that was very captivating,
eerie and creepy.

33
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:11.966
And there was just something
there that I couldn't,

34
00:02:11.966 --> 00:02:13.800
you know, keep my eyes off it,

35
00:02:16.833 --> 00:02:18.300
the way the character looked.

36
00:02:18.300 --> 00:02:21.133
You just know that he has
that iconic look just like

37
00:02:21.133 --> 00:02:23.300
what everybody's looking
for in like a slasher film

38
00:02:23.300 --> 00:02:24.466
that's, that could
be remembered.

39
00:02:24.466 --> 00:02:28.500
He's bordering
between comedic relief

40
00:02:28.500 --> 00:02:31.000
and then a scary villain.

41
00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:32.566
But his timing

42
00:02:32.566 --> 00:02:37.266
and that dichotomy is, I would
say, almost perfect, because

43
00:02:37.266 --> 00:02:38.533
otherwise he's laughable.

44
00:02:38.533 --> 00:02:40.233
If he's too funny,
he's not scary.

45
00:02:40.233 --> 00:02:42.033
And then if he's too
scary, please don't,

46
00:02:42.033 --> 00:02:43.533
he's not compelling

47
00:02:43.533 --> 00:02:46.733
because he doesn't have that
two side of, of each coin.

48
00:02:48.533 --> 00:02:49.900
It's a clown
that's like supposed

49
00:02:49.900 --> 00:02:52.000
to be doing funny
things, but he's

50
00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:53.800
Doing funny things
in a murderous way.

51
00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:55.600
And that's one of the
reasons why people fall

52
00:02:55.600 --> 00:02:56.866
in love with this character.

53
00:02:56.866 --> 00:02:58.666
They love how much
fun this character's

54
00:02:58.666 --> 00:02:59.766
having, doing what he's doing.

55
00:02:59.766 --> 00:03:01.233
And they love to laugh

56
00:03:01.233 --> 00:03:02.933
and have fun with this
character at the same time

57
00:03:03.900 --> 00:03:05.500
Are the clown.

58
00:03:05.500 --> 00:03:10.166
To me, he's like an embodiment
of all the great horror icons

59
00:03:10.166 --> 00:03:11.266
that came before him.

60
00:03:11.266 --> 00:03:12.900
He enjoys what he's doing.

61
00:03:12.900 --> 00:03:15.066
He's doing these
horrible, sadistic things,

62
00:03:16.100 --> 00:03:17.966
but he's having fun.

63
00:03:17.966 --> 00:03:20.100
He is such a fun character.

64
00:03:20.100 --> 00:03:22.000
I I, I have a blast playing him,

65
00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:24.400
especially in this latest film

66
00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:26.133
And I can't wait to see

67
00:03:26.133 --> 00:03:29.766
where Damien Leon's Twisted
Brain takes us next.

68
00:03:51.933 --> 00:03:55.766
So here we are day,
technically day two,

69
00:03:55.766 --> 00:03:57.566
but day one of
principal photography.

70
00:03:57.566 --> 00:04:00.966
But really day two of
Terror Fire three. Yeah.

71
00:04:00.966 --> 00:04:02.300
And we got the whole gang back

72
00:04:02.300 --> 00:04:04.133
together and it's going great.

73
00:04:04.133 --> 00:04:05.400
We here at St.
John's University.

74
00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:08.033
A lot of the crews
were alumni of here

75
00:04:08.033 --> 00:04:09.833
and a lot of, not me, not him,

76
00:04:11.066 --> 00:04:13.266
but we're, we're here,
we're making it happen.

77
00:04:15.100 --> 00:04:18.366
What drew me back, I, I
just simply love Terrifi Fire.

78
00:04:19.833 --> 00:04:21.766
Well first of all, what
drew me back to the role is I,

79
00:04:21.766 --> 00:04:23.500
I love playing the
character so much.

80
00:04:23.500 --> 00:04:26.066
I will play this character
as long as I can.

81
00:04:26.066 --> 00:04:30.233
He's such a fun little
mischievous little bastard to play.

82
00:04:30.233 --> 00:04:32.066
I love working with
Damien and the cast

83
00:04:32.066 --> 00:04:35.000
and crew, Lauren and David.

84
00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:37.866
Honestly, it's the family aspect

85
00:04:37.866 --> 00:04:39.433
that definitely draws me in.

86
00:04:39.433 --> 00:04:41.566
And also the story. I feel
like Jonathan has more

87
00:04:41.566 --> 00:04:43.400
to tell than if
Damien feels that way,

88
00:04:43.400 --> 00:04:44.833
then I'm willing to go on set.

89
00:04:52.733 --> 00:04:55.266
I want it to be a
horror fan's like Dream,

90
00:04:55.266 --> 00:04:58.466
where it's just, we can't, we,
we, we can't give you enough.

91
00:04:58.466 --> 00:05:01.733
It's just, it's just constantly
throwing as much at you

92
00:05:01.733 --> 00:05:03.400
as you can possibly stomach.

93
00:05:04.566 --> 00:05:07.933
And, you know, hopefully
it'll quench a lot

94
00:05:07.933 --> 00:05:09.000
of horror fans, thirst.

95
00:05:10.166 --> 00:05:11.933
I would say the
people are what drew me

96
00:05:11.933 --> 00:05:13.233
to the project a
hundred percent.

97
00:05:13.233 --> 00:05:14.733
'cause they're
who you see first.

98
00:05:14.733 --> 00:05:16.733
They're who you talk to and

99
00:05:16.733 --> 00:05:18.133
they're also what
keeps you around.

100
00:05:18.133 --> 00:05:20.766
Like I am personally.
I'm the, I'm the outcast.

101
00:05:20.766 --> 00:05:23.166
Say now I'm, I'm not the
horror fan in the group

102
00:05:23.166 --> 00:05:24.633
as much as everybody else.

103
00:05:24.633 --> 00:05:26.366
When Terra Fire
Three came about

104
00:05:26.366 --> 00:05:29.666
and Damien presented me with
the script, we were just

105
00:05:29.666 --> 00:05:31.800
so excited to
collaborate. Again.

106
00:05:33.233 --> 00:05:35.833
Whenever Damien, you know,
asks, if I wanna be a part

107
00:05:35.833 --> 00:05:37.166
of anything, I would show up.

108
00:05:37.166 --> 00:05:38.666
I'll get him coffee, just

109
00:05:38.666 --> 00:05:42.000
'cause I really believe in
his artistry and his genius.

110
00:05:43.300 --> 00:05:46.100
It has a cult following
of really dedicated fans

111
00:05:46.100 --> 00:05:50.566
that are just amazing and,
and really supportive.

112
00:05:50.566 --> 00:05:52.366
And I think that's part

113
00:05:52.366 --> 00:05:55.033
of the reason why I was really
excited to join this project.

114
00:05:56.266 --> 00:05:59.233
The fan is there, in part

115
00:05:59.233 --> 00:06:03.900
because they love the fact
that Damien produces practical

116
00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:06.400
allusions to the audience.

117
00:06:06.400 --> 00:06:09.433
Three, he's, he's not trying
to trick them with VFX,

118
00:06:09.433 --> 00:06:11.366
he's not trying
to hide anything.

119
00:06:11.366 --> 00:06:13.033
He, he wants to
expose all of it.

120
00:06:23.066 --> 00:06:25.200
We're, we're laughing
because, you know,

121
00:06:25.200 --> 00:06:27.766
people think I have
a cameo in the movie,

122
00:06:27.766 --> 00:06:32.300
and a, a cameo is, is when Bob
Hope is in the Muppet movie.

123
00:06:32.300 --> 00:06:35.600
That's a cameo. Not a lot of
people can brag about this.

124
00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:36.900
Not a lot of people would say,

125
00:06:36.900 --> 00:06:39.066
I was in Star Trek
and Star Wars.

126
00:06:39.066 --> 00:06:41.066
Not a lot of people could
say, I've been killed

127
00:06:41.066 --> 00:06:43.700
by the Phantasm Sphere
and Michael Myers

128
00:06:43.700 --> 00:06:45.166
and now the Terror Fire Cloud.

129
00:06:49.700 --> 00:06:53.000
The big thing we decide to
do is make it a Christmas film.

130
00:06:54.466 --> 00:06:56.700
That was, that was something
I've known about for about two,

131
00:06:56.700 --> 00:06:58.500
about two years
before, you know,

132
00:06:58.500 --> 00:07:01.100
we announced Terra four Three
was gonna be a Christmas film.

133
00:07:01.100 --> 00:07:04.600
So that was a, that was a
hard secret for me to keep.

134
00:07:04.600 --> 00:07:08.633
And I I love that idea of making
it a Christmas film action.

135
00:07:17.733 --> 00:07:19.633
Christmas is my
second favorite holiday

136
00:07:19.633 --> 00:07:21.500
and I wanna try something fresh.

137
00:07:21.500 --> 00:07:25.033
Damien wrote a banger of
a script for this movie.

138
00:07:25.033 --> 00:07:26.333
Really got me excited.

139
00:07:27.400 --> 00:07:29.366
I always grew up
loving the Christmas

140
00:07:29.366 --> 00:07:31.033
sub-genre in particular.

141
00:07:31.033 --> 00:07:32.833
There's two iterations

142
00:07:32.833 --> 00:07:35.300
of the Tales from the
K Crypt episode and all through the house.

143
00:07:35.300 --> 00:07:37.266
One was made in the seventies,
one was made in the,

144
00:07:37.266 --> 00:07:39.700
for the show in the eighties
directed by Robertson MEUs.

145
00:07:41.966 --> 00:07:43.233
And they're just

146
00:07:43.233 --> 00:07:46.300
for my two favorite
like horror short films.

147
00:07:46.300 --> 00:07:48.766
And I always loved
Maniac Santa Clauss,

148
00:07:54.566 --> 00:07:57.266
but it's been done to death

149
00:07:57.266 --> 00:07:59.466
and I never even thought
about taking my crack at it.

150
00:07:59.466 --> 00:08:01.733
'cause what could I
do really differently?

151
00:08:01.733 --> 00:08:04.733
So one of the fun things
about Christmas especially is

152
00:08:04.733 --> 00:08:08.266
that you see all these like
gorgeous like lights and decor

153
00:08:08.266 --> 00:08:10.700
and that's like
cozy and familial.

154
00:08:10.700 --> 00:08:13.600
I love Christmas
horror films in itself.

155
00:08:13.600 --> 00:08:14.900
I think that's a
fun little genre.

156
00:08:14.900 --> 00:08:17.366
So I thought that was
a brilliant idea to

157
00:08:17.366 --> 00:08:22.366
bring a horror icon into
another like horror genre

158
00:08:23.700 --> 00:08:25.066
because you haven't really
seen that done before.

159
00:08:25.066 --> 00:08:30.000
This Terrifi movie
being set at Christmas is

160
00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:32.400
ingenious marketing.

161
00:08:33.266 --> 00:08:34.833
And I think we will,

162
00:08:34.833 --> 00:08:38.700
we'll separate it from the
other movies in such a unique

163
00:08:38.700 --> 00:08:39.900
particular way.

164
00:08:43.100 --> 00:08:46.666
Now, if I dress art up
as a maniac Santa Claus,

165
00:08:46.666 --> 00:08:48.100
that makes art fresh.

166
00:08:48.100 --> 00:08:50.066
It gives him something
new to play with

167
00:08:50.066 --> 00:08:52.700
and it kind of makes
the old maniac Santa

168
00:08:52.700 --> 00:08:54.000
Claus trope fresh again.

169
00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:55.500
So right there I could
start having, you know,

170
00:08:55.500 --> 00:08:56.900
that gets me excited.

171
00:08:56.900 --> 00:08:59.566
We could start entering
new territory here.

172
00:08:59.566 --> 00:09:01.066
Damon was telling
me where he wanted

173
00:09:01.066 --> 00:09:03.600
to take Victoria in
the, in the franchise

174
00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:06.866
and in the lore of Theier world.

175
00:09:06.866 --> 00:09:10.433
I mean, just that alone and
that arc of the character.

176
00:09:10.433 --> 00:09:13.866
I mean, I've never been able
to, to really see a character

177
00:09:13.866 --> 00:09:17.100
through over that
amount of time. Come on,

178
00:09:17.100 --> 00:09:18.733
Halloween is almost over.

179
00:09:18.733 --> 00:09:22.033
Christmas is coming. Let's
put on Terra Fire three. Hi,

180
00:09:23.133 --> 00:09:24.133
How are you?

181
00:09:24.133 --> 00:09:25.500
What for Terra Fire?

182
00:09:25.500 --> 00:09:30.000
The original, we had so
little money, it was a,

183
00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:33.500
I think a $35,000
movie at the time.

184
00:09:33.500 --> 00:09:36.366
And my mindset was why
is somebody gonna come

185
00:09:36.366 --> 00:09:41.100
to see this film when they
can go watch a multimillion

186
00:09:41.100 --> 00:09:42.800
dollar Hollywood movie? The

187
00:09:42.800 --> 00:09:45.900
Script went through
so many phases.

188
00:09:45.900 --> 00:09:48.800
There is like the, the
original script I read is a lot

189
00:09:48.800 --> 00:09:50.633
different from the
what we actually filmed

190
00:09:50.633 --> 00:09:54.266
because we had to
make adaptations as we went along going,

191
00:09:54.266 --> 00:09:57.000
you know, like what, what
time we had, what amount

192
00:09:57.000 --> 00:09:59.466
of money we had in our
budget to film what we had

193
00:09:59.466 --> 00:10:00.833
to do and stuff like that.

194
00:10:13.433 --> 00:10:17.200
These guys making the movie
in Damien's mother's garage

195
00:10:17.200 --> 00:10:18.866
or Michael Levy's
mother's garage.

196
00:10:18.866 --> 00:10:21.633
Phil Fcon I think is why they're
like, you know, we gotta,

197
00:10:21.633 --> 00:10:24.600
those are intestines in the
sink, just leave them there.

198
00:10:24.600 --> 00:10:26.066
I need 'em later. I remember

199
00:10:26.066 --> 00:10:27.833
Like my stomach being in knots

200
00:10:27.833 --> 00:10:30.133
and being like, what the
hell is this sick fuck?

201
00:10:30.133 --> 00:10:33.600
Like, and I was like, I'm, I
don't know if I can do this.

202
00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:36.066
Like I'm, I'm an
artist, I can't do this.

203
00:10:36.066 --> 00:10:40.266
And now everyone's seen it in
the world and now I love it.

204
00:10:40.266 --> 00:10:41.666
And now I appreciate it.

205
00:10:41.666 --> 00:10:44.366
And I don't think Damien's
a psychotic individual.

206
00:10:44.366 --> 00:10:45.633
I think he's an amazing artist.

207
00:10:48.333 --> 00:10:49.866
Damien was an effects artist

208
00:10:49.866 --> 00:10:52.833
or somebody who was striving
to be an effects artist

209
00:10:52.833 --> 00:10:54.400
who decided to sort

210
00:10:54.400 --> 00:10:57.633
of make this independent
film this horror movie.

211
00:10:57.633 --> 00:11:00.933
And I think it was a
launchpad for, you know,

212
00:11:00.933 --> 00:11:02.833
his creativity and
what he wanted to do.

213
00:11:02.833 --> 00:11:04.466
And this was a vehicle for him.

214
00:11:04.466 --> 00:11:07.800
Like, there's something
about making a movie like that

215
00:11:07.800 --> 00:11:09.600
and having it succeed.

216
00:11:09.600 --> 00:11:13.633
That for, for the independent
minded artist, 3, 2, 1,

217
00:11:13.633 --> 00:11:15.766
action is extraordinary.

218
00:11:15.766 --> 00:11:18.566
The audience has
embraced it so much so

219
00:11:18.566 --> 00:11:20.833
that it's made him
a very good living

220
00:11:20.833 --> 00:11:22.500
and has allowed him

221
00:11:22.500 --> 00:11:26.300
to put more money
into continuing this character in this

222
00:11:26.300 --> 00:11:28.933
franchise right now without
the help of the big studios.

223
00:11:37.633 --> 00:11:41.800
I hired Phil Falcon first
and foremost. I hired him.

224
00:11:41.800 --> 00:11:44.400
I'm getting videotapes. I
can't say whose name I'm doing.

225
00:11:47.133 --> 00:11:50.133
I did it all. No, Phil Falcon,

226
00:11:50.133 --> 00:11:52.700
I'm the executive
producer. Producer.

227
00:11:52.700 --> 00:11:54.233
My name is Michael Levy.

228
00:11:54.233 --> 00:11:57.066
I was Willie Exterminator
in the original Terra Fire.

229
00:11:57.066 --> 00:12:01.900
Wait, Mike, come back.
We took Johnny O's

230
00:12:01.900 --> 00:12:04.366
Kid and I, producer

231
00:12:04.366 --> 00:12:06.800
and assistant director on
Terra Fire two and three.

232
00:12:06.800 --> 00:12:08.200
My name is Jason Levy.

233
00:12:08.200 --> 00:12:10.466
I'm one of the
co-producers of the film

234
00:12:10.466 --> 00:12:13.966
and also I did a little bit
of casting in it as well.

235
00:12:13.966 --> 00:12:17.766
Hey Dave, we're gonna need
you on set. Dave, what

236
00:12:19.100 --> 00:12:22.633
This is like a big budget
movie for a big audience

237
00:12:22.633 --> 00:12:24.700
that's done on a
small budget still.

238
00:12:24.700 --> 00:12:27.400
So that kind of becomes
the producer's challenge of

239
00:12:27.400 --> 00:12:31.533
how do you still keep
growing but not grow too fast

240
00:12:31.533 --> 00:12:34.866
or forget where you came
from and switch things up

241
00:12:34.866 --> 00:12:37.633
and not do what you should
do for the audience.

242
00:12:42.066 --> 00:12:46.133
Yo, yo you guys,
you, you look so good.

243
00:12:46.133 --> 00:12:48.300
I mean, way better
than mine. I mean,

244
00:12:49.400 --> 00:12:50.700
I was gonna do
the blood thing too,

245
00:12:50.700 --> 00:12:52.633
but I I was just worried
about the cleanup,

246
00:12:52.633 --> 00:12:54.533
but can I, can I get a picture?

247
00:12:54.533 --> 00:12:57.033
One of the more
compelling aspects

248
00:12:57.033 --> 00:12:58.966
of working on Terra
Fire three is the fact

249
00:12:58.966 --> 00:13:02.133
that we have a team of
super passionate people.

250
00:13:02.133 --> 00:13:05.866
So all of us are emotionally
invested in this movie.

251
00:13:05.866 --> 00:13:08.266
It's not just a, you know,
you show up, you do your job,

252
00:13:08.266 --> 00:13:10.000
you collect a paycheck
and you go home.

253
00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:13.033
All of us have have stakes
in this movie as far

254
00:13:13.033 --> 00:13:15.266
as we all want it
to do really well.

255
00:13:15.266 --> 00:13:16.966
We want it to look
the best, we want it

256
00:13:16.966 --> 00:13:18.500
to have the best performances.

257
00:13:18.500 --> 00:13:21.433
It can have everything that,
that can make this movie great.

258
00:13:21.433 --> 00:13:23.200
That's what we're
all striving for.

259
00:13:23.200 --> 00:13:25.300
The terrify of three
certainly raised the bar

260
00:13:25.300 --> 00:13:26.533
for the franchise.

261
00:13:26.533 --> 00:13:30.733
I mean between the
kills, the effects,

262
00:13:30.733 --> 00:13:33.966
the makeup, the lighting,
the production design.

263
00:13:33.966 --> 00:13:36.100
I mean it's really
a bigger movie

264
00:13:36.100 --> 00:13:38.666
and it, it's story-wise
it's great too.

265
00:13:38.666 --> 00:13:40.833
I mean it really, I think fans

266
00:13:40.833 --> 00:13:42.333
are gonna really appreciate it.

267
00:13:42.333 --> 00:13:45.400
As a producer, your job is
to make things keep going,

268
00:13:45.400 --> 00:13:47.766
moving low flow smoothly.

269
00:13:47.766 --> 00:13:49.700
And I'm pretty
good at putting out

270
00:13:49.700 --> 00:13:51.033
fires and, and doing things.

271
00:13:51.033 --> 00:13:53.433
I'm very hands on. Throw that

272
00:13:53.433 --> 00:13:57.833
To the, we wanna do better
than Terra two Terra Fire one.

273
00:13:57.833 --> 00:14:00.133
We just want the quality
to be that much better

274
00:14:00.133 --> 00:14:02.366
and we can achieve that
with the bigger budget,

275
00:14:02.366 --> 00:14:03.966
but it's also the
people and the heart

276
00:14:03.966 --> 00:14:07.366
and the passion behind the
scenes that help this movie get

277
00:14:07.366 --> 00:14:09.300
to the level that it is

278
00:14:09.300 --> 00:14:10.900
Budgetarily for
Terra Fire three.

279
00:14:10.900 --> 00:14:14.466
It's definitely a huge
difference from Terra Fire two.

280
00:14:14.466 --> 00:14:16.166
It's a, it's a big step up

281
00:14:16.166 --> 00:14:18.433
and I think pretty much what
happened is everybody sat down

282
00:14:18.433 --> 00:14:22.000
and Phil decided what he
was comfortable working with

283
00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:23.500
and and producing with.

284
00:14:23.500 --> 00:14:25.133
And then we all
went behind his back

285
00:14:25.133 --> 00:14:26.800
and said, how can
we make it more,

286
00:14:29.466 --> 00:14:30.633
it's nice and chunky.

287
00:14:31.833 --> 00:14:35.666
How'd you get it Chunky?
Well, hot dog buns,

288
00:14:35.666 --> 00:14:37.000
Cheetos, we can move

289
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:38.500
- These lights, wine
- Beans.

290
00:14:38.500 --> 00:14:40.566
We, we just had a,
a much bigger crew,

291
00:14:40.566 --> 00:14:44.100
so more hands on deck,
which made it much easier

292
00:14:44.100 --> 00:14:48.233
for everyone else to just
focus on their department

293
00:14:48.233 --> 00:14:50.700
because there were so
many department heads.

294
00:14:50.700 --> 00:14:53.600
And even still this time,
like Olga for example, she,

295
00:14:53.600 --> 00:14:55.300
I think she was the
head of two departments,

296
00:14:55.300 --> 00:14:57.533
but there were so
many department heads last time that had

297
00:14:57.533 --> 00:14:59.400
to wear so many hats
and do so many things

298
00:14:59.400 --> 00:15:01.033
and it was hard to scramble.

299
00:15:01.033 --> 00:15:03.933
It's a miracle that we even
got Terra Fire two done. Yeah,

300
00:15:03.933 --> 00:15:07.633
Our most challenging
thing is always time.

301
00:15:07.633 --> 00:15:09.033
And the difference between two

302
00:15:09.033 --> 00:15:12.200
and three was definitely
time on two we would,

303
00:15:12.200 --> 00:15:14.233
because we had such a small
group, we would be prepping

304
00:15:14.233 --> 00:15:16.666
for a week and then
filming for a week

305
00:15:16.666 --> 00:15:18.466
and that would just continue

306
00:15:18.466 --> 00:15:22.100
A bigger team set
design everything.

307
00:15:22.100 --> 00:15:24.733
Like it was, it was pretty,
it was actually kinda surreal.

308
00:15:24.733 --> 00:15:29.000
It was like, it almost felt
like I was like all the time in

309
00:15:29.000 --> 00:15:30.133
between Terrifi Fire three

310
00:15:30.133 --> 00:15:32.100
and Terrifi Fire
two was like a week.

311
00:15:32.100 --> 00:15:34.366
I mean we made the
movie in three months now

312
00:15:34.366 --> 00:15:35.766
as opposed to three years.

313
00:15:35.766 --> 00:15:37.266
So that's a big trade off.

314
00:15:37.266 --> 00:15:39.933
I don't have to waste, not
that it was a waste of my life,

315
00:15:39.933 --> 00:15:42.266
but that's a, that's a long,
that's a big commitment.

316
00:15:42.266 --> 00:15:43.866
Years of your life
to make a movie.

317
00:15:43.866 --> 00:15:46.600
So, so that's the,
that's the balance

318
00:15:46.600 --> 00:15:48.800
and that's the, you know,
that's what you gotta do.

319
00:15:51.100 --> 00:15:54.366
Some of the challenges
within Terra Fire three were

320
00:15:54.366 --> 00:15:59.233
definitely packing a
lot of action and gore

321
00:15:59.233 --> 00:16:03.200
and effects within
our 12 hour days.

322
00:16:03.200 --> 00:16:05.000
Effects take a
long time to set up

323
00:16:05.000 --> 00:16:06.766
and then a long time to shoot.

324
00:16:06.766 --> 00:16:09.433
We have to tarp
everything off, make sure

325
00:16:09.433 --> 00:16:12.066
that the room doesn't
get blood all over it.

326
00:16:12.066 --> 00:16:13.700
So there's a lot of
steps for effects.

327
00:16:13.700 --> 00:16:16.433
So makeup takes a long time

328
00:16:16.433 --> 00:16:18.900
And you have a budget
and you know what that is

329
00:16:18.900 --> 00:16:20.166
and it's just making sure

330
00:16:20.166 --> 00:16:21.866
that you stay within
it the best you can.

331
00:16:21.866 --> 00:16:23.366
Something unanimously

332
00:16:23.366 --> 00:16:26.533
that we've all decided was
the special effects was not,

333
00:16:26.533 --> 00:16:28.966
and when I say special effects,
I mean practical effects was

334
00:16:28.966 --> 00:16:31.066
not gonna be sacrificed
on this film.

335
00:16:31.066 --> 00:16:34.233
Staying within budget
on the effects is

336
00:16:35.600 --> 00:16:36.966
not the easy part

337
00:16:36.966 --> 00:16:39.733
and it's probably the part
that makes them so good.

338
00:16:39.733 --> 00:16:43.033
It's kind of just figure
out how to do them

339
00:16:43.033 --> 00:16:44.766
and then build the budget around

340
00:16:44.766 --> 00:16:46.300
That.

341
00:16:46.300 --> 00:16:48.066
I read the script for the first
time, I would've been like,

342
00:16:48.066 --> 00:16:50.900
you know, a $30 million
budget would be nice.

343
00:16:50.900 --> 00:16:53.533
So within the restraints
of what we had and time

344
00:16:53.533 --> 00:16:56.766
and everything, we
really just honed in on

345
00:16:56.766 --> 00:16:58.566
what was most important.

346
00:16:58.566 --> 00:17:00.300
It's like the
effects came first.

347
00:17:00.300 --> 00:17:02.666
This is what we have to do,
this is what Damien wants,

348
00:17:02.666 --> 00:17:05.066
this is what's in the
script, then it's all right,

349
00:17:05.066 --> 00:17:07.233
this is what's left, basically.

350
00:17:07.233 --> 00:17:08.666
And then figure out the rest.

351
00:17:08.666 --> 00:17:11.000
So it's definitely interesting
when it comes to a,

352
00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:12.200
an effects driven movie

353
00:17:12.200 --> 00:17:13.966
and it's you, you
follow your leader

354
00:17:13.966 --> 00:17:15.500
who is Damien, he
knows what he wants.

355
00:17:15.500 --> 00:17:16.533
Just a little bit to the left

356
00:17:17.966 --> 00:17:20.133
And a little, - This is
where I'm gonna get in trouble.

357
00:17:20.133 --> 00:17:23.033
The, the truth is, bigger
budget, bigger problems.

358
00:17:23.033 --> 00:17:26.000
You, you, what what happens
is there, there comes a time

359
00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:27.400
where it becomes waste

360
00:17:27.400 --> 00:17:29.900
and certain money gets
wasted in different areas

361
00:17:29.900 --> 00:17:32.766
because you, you you, you're
forced to do certain things.

362
00:17:33.966 --> 00:17:35.733
Whereas with the lower
budgets, you know,

363
00:17:35.733 --> 00:17:39.100
we had a lot more
freedom in this one.

364
00:17:39.100 --> 00:17:42.166
We had to do certain things
that, that cost more.

365
00:17:44.233 --> 00:17:47.733
Hello, another beautiful
day on the set of two two,

366
00:17:47.733 --> 00:17:50.666
I think, you know, it's
really when you are doing a big

367
00:17:50.666 --> 00:17:52.200
budget film or you're
with the studio

368
00:17:52.200 --> 00:17:54.100
'cause there's so much red tape

369
00:17:54.100 --> 00:17:57.233
and there's so many
other things legally that

370
00:17:57.233 --> 00:17:59.233
just are a part of
it all Damien needs

371
00:17:59.233 --> 00:18:00.700
to be allowed to be unleashed.

372
00:18:00.700 --> 00:18:02.833
You know, you might not
understand what he's doing,

373
00:18:02.833 --> 00:18:04.233
you know, you might
not understand

374
00:18:04.233 --> 00:18:05.400
how it's all coming together,

375
00:18:05.400 --> 00:18:06.933
but when you realize Damien Leon

376
00:18:06.933 --> 00:18:09.666
and you see what he's capable
of, you're like, just go.

377
00:18:09.666 --> 00:18:12.533
It's different when
you're working out

378
00:18:12.533 --> 00:18:15.000
of your own facility
or your own garage.

379
00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:17.366
It's another thing
when you have labor

380
00:18:17.366 --> 00:18:18.900
that you're paying for.

381
00:18:18.900 --> 00:18:21.100
You have materials that
you're costing out,

382
00:18:21.100 --> 00:18:22.633
you have overhead that
you are having to pay,

383
00:18:22.633 --> 00:18:23.700
but there's all these elements

384
00:18:23.700 --> 00:18:25.000
that really go into producing,

385
00:18:26.600 --> 00:18:29.333
Even though it was a much
bigger budget than the other

386
00:18:29.333 --> 00:18:31.200
films, it still had
a lot of challenges

387
00:18:31.200 --> 00:18:33.833
because going bigger,
there's bigger problems

388
00:18:33.833 --> 00:18:35.533
and different problem solving

389
00:18:35.533 --> 00:18:37.400
and different things that
you might not have foreseen.

390
00:18:37.400 --> 00:18:39.366
But because of the
bigger budget, we were able

391
00:18:39.366 --> 00:18:41.000
to do bigger things

392
00:18:41.000 --> 00:18:45.600
and make it much more dynamic
with, with the bigger budget,

393
00:18:45.600 --> 00:18:47.166
you're gonna say, wow,
that's really good.

394
00:18:49.900 --> 00:18:51.933
Definitely a fun
challenge to be a part of.

395
00:18:51.933 --> 00:18:53.733
And I'm honored that
we finished the film.

396
00:19:04.233 --> 00:19:06.933
Damien Leone, writer
director of Terra Fire three,

397
00:19:07.800 --> 00:19:09.233
He wears so many hats.

398
00:19:09.233 --> 00:19:11.933
Like he's the writer,
director, I mean makeup artist.

399
00:19:11.933 --> 00:19:15.633
He was able to defer that

400
00:19:15.633 --> 00:19:17.366
to an actual
department this time

401
00:19:17.366 --> 00:19:19.100
because he had a bigger
budget, which is great.

402
00:19:19.100 --> 00:19:22.933
So he could focus on directing
and, and just his vision.

403
00:19:22.933 --> 00:19:26.333
But he's always so
calm, which as an actor

404
00:19:26.333 --> 00:19:29.866
and just a hyper person, it's,
I'm in awe when I see that

405
00:19:29.866 --> 00:19:31.800
because he's got
so much on his mind

406
00:19:31.800 --> 00:19:34.933
and I'm like, how is he able
to just zone in and be so calm?

407
00:19:34.933 --> 00:19:36.800
I'm in awe of him.
When I see that

408
00:19:42.566 --> 00:19:46.333
As the producer, I try to
let Damien get as creative

409
00:19:46.333 --> 00:19:48.233
as he wants and give
him everything he needs

410
00:19:48.233 --> 00:19:49.966
and ensure that he has it.

411
00:19:49.966 --> 00:19:52.566
I do voice my
opinion quite a bit.

412
00:19:52.566 --> 00:19:54.300
I'll, I'll always
call him on the side

413
00:19:54.300 --> 00:19:56.333
and say, why don't you know,
why don't you try this?

414
00:19:56.333 --> 00:19:58.633
I, you know, sometimes he
listens, sometimes he don't

415
00:19:58.633 --> 00:20:00.133
Comes Queen Phoenix, oh

416
00:20:00.133 --> 00:20:05.100
Baby Damien is a
fantastic director.

417
00:20:05.100 --> 00:20:08.366
He definitely has a vision.
I have so much respect

418
00:20:08.366 --> 00:20:09.933
For him.

419
00:20:09.933 --> 00:20:14.300
He has been a believer in, in
himself and this franchise.

420
00:20:14.300 --> 00:20:16.333
And there's so many
opportunities that he had along the way

421
00:20:16.333 --> 00:20:19.366
to take and there's so many
opportunities that I understood.

422
00:20:19.366 --> 00:20:21.866
If he took it like
I think we all would

423
00:20:21.866 --> 00:20:25.733
where it would make his life
a little easier and he didn't

424
00:20:25.733 --> 00:20:28.633
and he kept his
integrity, we love you,

425
00:20:29.600 --> 00:20:30.700
We miss you.

426
00:20:32.200 --> 00:20:35.966
I know that he wants what's
best for the character

427
00:20:35.966 --> 00:20:37.333
and the portrayal
of the character.

428
00:20:37.333 --> 00:20:39.666
So I have a lot of trust in him

429
00:20:39.666 --> 00:20:41.233
and I know

430
00:20:41.233 --> 00:20:43.733
that he's gonna tell the best
story possible for Sienna.

431
00:20:45.100 --> 00:20:48.033
It's really special to
have a director isn't just,

432
00:20:48.033 --> 00:20:49.800
I like this and want
it to look like this.

433
00:20:49.800 --> 00:20:51.733
It's, I know how to make this

434
00:20:51.733 --> 00:20:56.266
Damien and I do like
pre-production for months

435
00:20:56.266 --> 00:20:58.800
where we're bouncing off
ideas off each other.

436
00:20:58.800 --> 00:21:01.766
He's a master and I
love watching him work

437
00:21:01.766 --> 00:21:04.200
and as a producer it's up
to us to figure out a way

438
00:21:04.200 --> 00:21:05.800
to get his vision done

439
00:21:05.800 --> 00:21:10.166
And know that we had a hand
in creating this is something

440
00:21:10.166 --> 00:21:12.266
that's super humbling.

441
00:21:12.266 --> 00:21:13.933
Something that I'll
always be grateful for.

442
00:21:15.433 --> 00:21:18.666
He seems like a psycho based
off of what he has written,

443
00:21:18.666 --> 00:21:19.900
but he's such a nice guy

444
00:21:19.900 --> 00:21:21.633
and thank God I got
to meet him first.

445
00:21:21.633 --> 00:21:23.600
Yeah dude, it's gonna awesome.

446
00:21:23.600 --> 00:21:26.433
It's gonna be the best
thing since sliced bread.

447
00:21:26.433 --> 00:21:28.966
Oh, no pressure. He knows
he's done it from when Terra

448
00:21:28.966 --> 00:21:31.033
Fire was this small,
independent film.

449
00:21:31.033 --> 00:21:33.600
And now what has this
grown to, you know,

450
00:21:33.600 --> 00:21:36.700
the mega slasher it's been,
he knows what it takes to,

451
00:21:36.700 --> 00:21:38.600
to make, you know,
to make those,

452
00:21:38.600 --> 00:21:40.100
those kills pop and look good.

453
00:21:52.033 --> 00:21:55.333
And when you see somebody
that really pays attention

454
00:21:55.333 --> 00:21:56.833
to every little detail

455
00:21:56.833 --> 00:22:00.133
and you've got a lot,
especially in the horror world,

456
00:22:00.133 --> 00:22:04.033
his shots and really wants to
make sure he has everything

457
00:22:04.033 --> 00:22:08.166
and has what will be
better than the last one.

458
00:22:08.166 --> 00:22:11.666
He's a good director.
He's a really good director.

459
00:22:11.666 --> 00:22:15.600
And I think when you wrap it
into a slasher movie concept,

460
00:22:15.600 --> 00:22:18.366
people don't give it
the credit it deserves.

461
00:22:18.366 --> 00:22:19.366
Great job, buddy.

462
00:22:21.600 --> 00:22:24.433
Was good. It's so much
fun working with Damien.

463
00:22:24.433 --> 00:22:26.533
I would work with
him, with him anytime

464
00:22:26.533 --> 00:22:28.300
Because Damien is
such a perfectionist

465
00:22:28.300 --> 00:22:29.833
and very talented in

466
00:22:29.833 --> 00:22:33.633
that he is very particular
about everything

467
00:22:33.633 --> 00:22:36.266
and is very focused
on the details.

468
00:22:39.500 --> 00:22:42.100
This could have like
a home improvement show.

469
00:22:44.600 --> 00:22:45.833
The call with Damien,

470
00:22:50.000 --> 00:22:52.533
He's very actor,
friendly director.

471
00:22:52.533 --> 00:22:55.233
He, he has his ideas
about how he wants things,

472
00:22:55.233 --> 00:22:56.566
but he's also open

473
00:22:56.566 --> 00:22:59.400
and willing to hearing
other people's thoughts

474
00:22:59.400 --> 00:23:02.933
and you know, see what they can
also bring to the character,

475
00:23:02.933 --> 00:23:04.600
which is, which is great

476
00:23:04.600 --> 00:23:06.366
'cause he's given me
so much freedom just

477
00:23:06.366 --> 00:23:09.100
to build upon the
character himself.

478
00:23:21.300 --> 00:23:24.666
I found that Damien was
constantly asking me to do more

479
00:23:24.666 --> 00:23:27.333
and more, which as an
actor feels very unnatural.

480
00:23:27.333 --> 00:23:30.933
And you have to, you have to
just trust that the director,

481
00:23:30.933 --> 00:23:33.200
once he's ready to move
on, has got what he wanted.

482
00:23:33.200 --> 00:23:34.733
And you're like, are you
sure? That felt really

483
00:23:34.733 --> 00:23:36.033
big and strange.

484
00:23:36.033 --> 00:23:37.400
And he's just like,
no, trust me, it works

485
00:23:37.400 --> 00:23:39.600
for this kind of
universe. It works.

486
00:23:39.600 --> 00:23:42.466
I'm a stage actor.
I'm used to being big.

487
00:23:42.466 --> 00:23:44.500
And I was like, well, you
know, with this character,

488
00:23:44.500 --> 00:23:47.133
he is a, so I can still

489
00:23:47.133 --> 00:23:49.333
go a little bit bigger
with my gestures.

490
00:23:49.333 --> 00:23:51.700
And so that's what I
wanted to add more to him.

491
00:23:51.700 --> 00:23:53.666
I saw what a real
actor could bring

492
00:23:53.666 --> 00:23:55.366
to this role, basically.

493
00:23:55.366 --> 00:23:58.366
I mean, I saw all
the theatricality and all the nuances

494
00:23:58.366 --> 00:23:59.766
and the quirks that
he could bring.

495
00:23:59.766 --> 00:24:02.300
And then as we were
making the first film,

496
00:24:03.533 --> 00:24:05.900
I started really
embracing the humor

497
00:24:05.900 --> 00:24:07.433
that we could put into the movie

498
00:24:07.433 --> 00:24:09.600
and we can inject that into
the character, especially

499
00:24:09.600 --> 00:24:12.433
after a very gory set piece.

500
00:24:14.833 --> 00:24:16.566
Sometimes he brings me
back, he's like, okay,

501
00:24:16.566 --> 00:24:18.366
you're a little bit too
big and goofy today.

502
00:24:23.233 --> 00:24:25.033
The first time I
saw what he can bring

503
00:24:25.033 --> 00:24:29.500
to the character was shooting
er in the pizzeria scene.

504
00:24:29.500 --> 00:24:32.833
It's the moment he gives Tara
the ring and then he gets up

505
00:24:32.833 --> 00:24:34.266
and skips away to the bathroom,

506
00:24:36.766 --> 00:24:39.200
put it on in the going.

507
00:24:39.200 --> 00:24:42.866
So he just decided to, I think
at that point in the movie,

508
00:24:42.866 --> 00:24:44.600
I had him playing
the character sort

509
00:24:44.600 --> 00:24:47.233
of very straight the way Mike
Gianelli was playing him.

510
00:24:47.233 --> 00:24:49.833
And then Dave just sort
of leaped up to his feet

511
00:24:49.833 --> 00:24:53.400
and did this kinda like Bugs
Bunny walk away to the bathroom

512
00:24:53.400 --> 00:24:55.433
and immediately I was
like, put off by it.

513
00:24:55.433 --> 00:24:56.800
I was like, Ooh, that's
like, that's like too

514
00:24:56.800 --> 00:24:58.366
much. That's too hokey.

515
00:24:58.366 --> 00:25:01.200
Well sometimes do
different takes on scenes

516
00:25:01.200 --> 00:25:03.500
and it was like, okay,
let's do a serious take

517
00:25:03.500 --> 00:25:05.733
and make him more sadistic
and evil on this one.

518
00:25:05.733 --> 00:25:09.300
Okay, now let's do a
little bit goofier now

519
00:25:09.300 --> 00:25:10.466
and see what he
can do with that.

520
00:25:10.466 --> 00:25:12.500
And or sometimes Damien's like,

521
00:25:12.500 --> 00:25:15.000
I just want him serious
here. And then immediately

522
00:25:15.000 --> 00:25:16.566
I just go, I mean,
it's aren't the

523
00:25:16.566 --> 00:25:18.066
clown, I mean, he's a clown.

524
00:25:18.066 --> 00:25:20.666
I said, why don't we just
really start embracing that now

525
00:25:20.666 --> 00:25:23.166
and injecting more of
that into the character.

526
00:25:31.933 --> 00:25:35.600
So once I saw that we
had that to play with,

527
00:25:35.600 --> 00:25:37.333
we would do that a lot.

528
00:25:37.333 --> 00:25:40.666
We've developed a shorthand,
we communicate very well,

529
00:25:40.666 --> 00:25:41.700
especially on set.

530
00:25:41.700 --> 00:25:43.433
He trusts me, I trust him,

531
00:25:43.433 --> 00:25:46.800
especially in our
artistic departments.

532
00:25:46.800 --> 00:25:49.233
I wanna like pretend
like it was awesome.

533
00:25:50.466 --> 00:25:53.566
It's, it's brutal. It's,
I I say it's brutal

534
00:25:53.566 --> 00:25:57.066
because the makeup takes
about six to eight hours.

535
00:25:58.533 --> 00:26:01.000
He's such a huge fan, like
the rest of us on the team,

536
00:26:01.000 --> 00:26:03.300
that it's just coming
out very naturally.

537
00:26:03.300 --> 00:26:05.600
And I think that shows across
the screen to horror fans.

538
00:26:05.600 --> 00:26:07.600
They know that no
one's phoning this in.

539
00:26:07.600 --> 00:26:10.500
Like, this isn't just a quick
kind of cash grab or anything.

540
00:26:10.500 --> 00:26:14.566
This is true, you know,
fandom and appreciation

541
00:26:14.566 --> 00:26:15.800
and love for the genre.

542
00:26:15.800 --> 00:26:17.000
Damien knows what he's doing.

543
00:26:17.000 --> 00:26:18.800
There's no reason
to get in his way.

544
00:26:18.800 --> 00:26:20.566
A lot of producers
wanna step on their toes

545
00:26:20.566 --> 00:26:23.933
or put your creative
thoughts wrong in the mix.

546
00:26:23.933 --> 00:26:25.533
And sometimes it's
health in a lot of ways.

547
00:26:25.533 --> 00:26:26.900
It's just, it's not needed.

548
00:26:35.833 --> 00:26:37.466
If you meet Dave in real life,

549
00:26:37.466 --> 00:26:41.500
it's like meeting Roger
Rabbit or, or Bug's Bunny.

550
00:26:41.500 --> 00:26:43.333
I mean, and then Roger
Rabbit is his favorite

551
00:26:43.333 --> 00:26:44.800
movie, his favorite character.

552
00:26:44.800 --> 00:26:47.333
I mean, he couldn't be
any further away from

553
00:26:47.333 --> 00:26:49.400
what Arthur the Clown is.

554
00:26:49.400 --> 00:26:51.100
- That would be amazing.
- Christmas working

555
00:26:51.100 --> 00:26:53.000
with David is so much fun.

556
00:26:54.133 --> 00:26:55.866
I love how he can
just switch it on

557
00:26:55.866 --> 00:26:58.100
and off just so
quickly and easily.

558
00:26:58.100 --> 00:27:01.066
Like whenever you just say
cut, he's back to being David,

559
00:27:01.066 --> 00:27:02.666
but he's in the full
makeup and everything

560
00:27:02.666 --> 00:27:03.866
and it's always a good time.

561
00:27:06.333 --> 00:27:09.066
You would do that on tar
art too specifically.

562
00:27:09.066 --> 00:27:11.766
We even had like a,
a fart competition.

563
00:27:11.766 --> 00:27:13.500
Well, I, I love
Dave as a person.

564
00:27:13.500 --> 00:27:16.500
He's just a silly guy and,
and thank God he's like that

565
00:27:16.500 --> 00:27:20.633
because art is just a gruesome,

566
00:27:20.633 --> 00:27:22.766
I can't even call him a
human gruesome entity.

567
00:27:22.766 --> 00:27:24.800
Please don't. No,

568
00:27:24.800 --> 00:27:26.600
Not us.

569
00:27:26.600 --> 00:27:28.300
He couldn't be
any different than

570
00:27:28.300 --> 00:27:30.700
what people expect when
they read the script

571
00:27:30.700 --> 00:27:32.033
or they see the film

572
00:27:32.033 --> 00:27:34.133
and then they go to meet
him or work with him.

573
00:27:34.133 --> 00:27:36.133
They think they're
gonna meet a psychopath.

574
00:27:36.133 --> 00:27:37.400
Real, I'm the psychopath really.

575
00:27:37.400 --> 00:27:39.666
When they meet him,
he's immediately

576
00:27:39.666 --> 00:27:40.666
Disarming.

577
00:27:41.966 --> 00:27:44.333
It's all about keeping
art consistent and

578
00:27:44.333 --> 00:27:46.133
and letting him play around
and do what he wants.

579
00:27:46.133 --> 00:27:48.700
Letting Dave have fun
with the character that's

580
00:27:48.700 --> 00:27:52.366
so sadistic is a, is a nice
twist on a lot of these things.

581
00:27:57.300 --> 00:27:59.066
Danger to yourself
and everyone fucking,

582
00:28:01.000 --> 00:28:04.333
there was a moment when
we were between takes

583
00:28:04.333 --> 00:28:07.433
and I just was watching
Dave and Antonella

584
00:28:07.433 --> 00:28:10.433
and they're just sitting
there doing like patty cake

585
00:28:10.433 --> 00:28:12.433
together and then they're
like dancing around

586
00:28:12.433 --> 00:28:16.166
and seeing Dave as art the
clown in a Santa outfit dancing

587
00:28:16.166 --> 00:28:18.466
around with Antonella
as like this, you know,

588
00:28:18.466 --> 00:28:20.766
he's this scary clown,
but he's really just Dave

589
00:28:20.766 --> 00:28:22.033
and he is the nicest guy.

590
00:28:23.700 --> 00:28:28.333
Dave brings the, I say the,
the physical humanity to the,

591
00:28:28.333 --> 00:28:29.933
to the ca to the character.

592
00:28:29.933 --> 00:28:32.633
You know, I could write the
jokes, I could write the humor,

593
00:28:33.833 --> 00:28:36.566
but when you put the
character in the makeup

594
00:28:36.566 --> 00:28:38.900
and these little quirks and
these little like nuances

595
00:28:38.900 --> 00:28:40.500
and gestures that he
gives, I mean that's

596
00:28:40.500 --> 00:28:43.200
what really brings
the character to life.

597
00:28:45.266 --> 00:28:48.000
Wait a minute, aren't you
that guy from the costume shop?

598
00:28:49.266 --> 00:28:51.866
You are. What are
you doing here?

599
00:28:51.866 --> 00:28:54.000
It is really easy
to work with Dave

600
00:28:54.000 --> 00:28:57.233
because he's always
attentive as a scene partner.

601
00:28:57.233 --> 00:28:58.866
He's always coming up with ideas

602
00:28:58.866 --> 00:29:03.566
and he's always fresh in
his ideas, which is really

603
00:29:03.566 --> 00:29:06.966
refreshing as an actor because
you are always on your toes

604
00:29:06.966 --> 00:29:08.533
and you can always
play off of that cut.

605
00:29:11.033 --> 00:29:13.933
And that's my
favorite part of that.

606
00:29:13.933 --> 00:29:15.666
My watch just like this.
He's just watching.

607
00:29:15.666 --> 00:29:18.266
I love watching Dave work.

608
00:29:18.266 --> 00:29:20.400
I've gotten to work with Dave,
so I've always known about

609
00:29:20.400 --> 00:29:24.133
Dave's brilliance as a
human and as Arthur Clown.

610
00:29:24.133 --> 00:29:26.300
I don't wanna take
anything away from Dave

611
00:29:26.300 --> 00:29:28.500
'cause Dave is the
star and Dave is art.

612
00:29:29.400 --> 00:29:30.833
But he'll tell you himself

613
00:29:30.833 --> 00:29:34.100
that sometimes Ola coordination
isn't his strong suit.

614
00:29:35.566 --> 00:29:38.266
He's a, he's a, he's a real
life cartoon character in a lot

615
00:29:38.266 --> 00:29:41.733
of ways and that's what
makes him great for art.

616
00:29:41.733 --> 00:29:43.433
But it doesn't
always make him great

617
00:29:43.433 --> 00:29:47.866
for hitting this exact
Mark was good. I actually

618
00:29:47.866 --> 00:29:50.566
Thought the first thing I
noticed when I created art

619
00:29:50.566 --> 00:29:53.500
that worked, I mean I didn't
know he was gonna have this

620
00:29:53.500 --> 00:29:55.300
longevity honestly when
I first created him,

621
00:29:55.300 --> 00:29:58.000
I just thought he was a
visually striking character

622
00:29:58.000 --> 00:30:00.033
and I just fell in love
with the look I knew like,

623
00:30:00.033 --> 00:30:02.766
and immediately when I would
show people either sketches

624
00:30:02.766 --> 00:30:04.833
or the prosthetic that I
sculpted when I put him in the

625
00:30:04.833 --> 00:30:06.400
first short film, soon

626
00:30:06.400 --> 00:30:09.633
as they saw this character
they said he looks amazing.

627
00:30:09.633 --> 00:30:11.766
Like you need to just
keep creating more

628
00:30:11.766 --> 00:30:12.833
things with this character.

629
00:30:14.200 --> 00:30:15.933
Nope, my arms actually
getting tight. I know.

630
00:30:15.933 --> 00:30:18.100
Why are you holding those
up? Oh, you have to.

631
00:30:18.100 --> 00:30:21.100
Well I know that there was
a different makeup design

632
00:30:21.100 --> 00:30:24.833
originally with Mike
Gelli who played art in

633
00:30:24.833 --> 00:30:27.300
the original Terra Fire
Short in all Hal Eve.

634
00:30:30.933 --> 00:30:35.200
And you actually see
his makeup design evolve

635
00:30:35.200 --> 00:30:38.700
during the course of all how
to, what is more normal now.

636
00:30:38.700 --> 00:30:42.666
So when I came on board,
I originally went in

637
00:30:42.666 --> 00:30:45.300
for a mold that
they did in my face

638
00:30:45.300 --> 00:30:47.200
and Damien had
sculpted something.

639
00:30:49.233 --> 00:30:52.800
We used that mold one time
in the first terror fire film

640
00:30:52.800 --> 00:30:54.566
and it's when the
cops come arrest me

641
00:30:54.566 --> 00:30:57.066
and it looks like
my, my cheekbones are a little bit bigger

642
00:30:57.066 --> 00:30:59.700
and stuff like that and
just don't read write.

643
00:31:08.300 --> 00:31:10.966
So originally my buddy
Mike Gianelli played the part

644
00:31:10.966 --> 00:31:12.966
and he wasn't an actor,
he was just my friend

645
00:31:12.966 --> 00:31:15.533
who I would test makeup on
basically makeup effects

646
00:31:15.533 --> 00:31:16.900
or I would make prosthetics.

647
00:31:16.900 --> 00:31:18.500
So he played the character

648
00:31:18.500 --> 00:31:22.433
and he played him just very
straight, simplistic, cold.

649
00:31:22.433 --> 00:31:25.200
There wasn't that
level of theatricality

650
00:31:25.200 --> 00:31:27.800
or that humor really yet
baked into the character.

651
00:31:27.800 --> 00:31:31.033
But he was really working based
off of the, the aesthetic,

652
00:31:31.033 --> 00:31:32.133
like his visual aesthetic.

653
00:31:45.666 --> 00:31:48.566
For the first two Terra
fire films that I did,

654
00:31:48.566 --> 00:31:50.966
we actually used Mike
Ellis original mold.

655
00:31:50.966 --> 00:31:54.100
So that was actually Mike
Gellis face on my face,

656
00:31:54.100 --> 00:31:55.500
which I thought was
really interesting.

657
00:32:09.700 --> 00:32:11.033
My favorite show

658
00:32:11.033 --> 00:32:13.566
of all time is the
original Twilight Zone you

659
00:32:13.566 --> 00:32:16.166
Just crossed over
into the Twilight

660
00:32:16.166 --> 00:32:17.166
Zone.

661
00:32:21.166 --> 00:32:22.566
And there's an episode

662
00:32:22.566 --> 00:32:25.300
that I love called Five
Characters in Search of an Exit

663
00:32:25.300 --> 00:32:28.133
and there is a clown in
one of those episodes.

664
00:32:28.133 --> 00:32:30.300
And I did take a little visual

665
00:32:30.300 --> 00:32:31.900
inspiration from that character.

666
00:32:31.900 --> 00:32:35.166
If you see him, you can
kind of see the similarity,

667
00:32:35.166 --> 00:32:36.433
which is I always try

668
00:32:36.433 --> 00:32:39.066
and pay homage to
Twilight Zone somewhere.

669
00:32:39.066 --> 00:32:40.500
You're wasting your
time, you know that, don't

670
00:32:40.500 --> 00:32:41.933
You?

671
00:32:41.933 --> 00:32:44.633
When I first put on the makeup
back for Terra four one,

672
00:32:44.633 --> 00:32:45.733
when I did the makeup test,

673
00:32:45.733 --> 00:32:48.200
I actually went
into the bathroom

674
00:32:48.200 --> 00:32:51.833
and for about 30 minutes
just sat there making faces,

675
00:32:51.833 --> 00:32:54.566
trying, just seeing where
I could take the makeup

676
00:32:54.566 --> 00:32:57.466
and they probably thought I
was having stomach problems

677
00:32:57.466 --> 00:32:59.000
because I was in
there for so long.

678
00:33:01.500 --> 00:33:04.000
Also, for the first film, the,

679
00:33:04.000 --> 00:33:06.300
the makeup process took
a little bit longer.

680
00:33:06.300 --> 00:33:08.900
We were using a different
type of prosthetic.

681
00:33:08.900 --> 00:33:11.733
We were using a
gelatin based mask

682
00:33:11.733 --> 00:33:13.833
and now we're using
a foam latex mask

683
00:33:13.833 --> 00:33:16.700
and the gelatin mask would
fall apart very easily,

684
00:33:16.700 --> 00:33:18.233
especially if any
liquids got on it.

685
00:33:18.233 --> 00:33:20.866
So you might see some like
behind the scenes photos of me

686
00:33:20.866 --> 00:33:22.466
with Q-tips in my nose

687
00:33:25.366 --> 00:33:27.100
In this film, this is
actually the first time

688
00:33:27.100 --> 00:33:29.900
where I did not do the special
effects, which is a big deal.

689
00:33:29.900 --> 00:33:33.766
I've always done the special
effects on my films just

690
00:33:33.766 --> 00:33:35.333
because of budget
constraints and

691
00:33:35.333 --> 00:33:37.500
because you know,
like I, like I said,

692
00:33:37.500 --> 00:33:39.933
I mean I can do any,
anything I really want.

693
00:33:39.933 --> 00:33:41.866
It doesn't matter
what the budget is.

694
00:33:41.866 --> 00:33:44.633
So now that we finally
had some money, I was able

695
00:33:44.633 --> 00:33:48.833
to hire some of the greatest
makeup artists in the business.

696
00:33:48.833 --> 00:33:51.800
I got to hire Christian
Tinsley to work on this movie,

697
00:33:51.800 --> 00:33:53.300
which is still blows my mind.

698
00:33:53.300 --> 00:33:55.800
I mean he's responsible for
the passion of the Christ,

699
00:33:55.800 --> 00:33:56.833
no Country for All Men.

700
00:33:56.833 --> 00:33:58.033
He works with the Cohen Brothers

701
00:33:58.033 --> 00:33:59.866
Westworld, American
Horror Story.

702
00:33:59.866 --> 00:34:01.966
I mean this guy's
like as good as you

703
00:34:01.966 --> 00:34:03.700
Get for Tar Fire three.

704
00:34:05.200 --> 00:34:06.933
Damien wanted a lot more help

705
00:34:06.933 --> 00:34:08.733
for this one since we
had a bigger budget.

706
00:34:08.733 --> 00:34:12.066
So he went to a Christian
Tinsleys team out based out in

707
00:34:12.066 --> 00:34:14.466
Burbank, in in la

708
00:34:14.466 --> 00:34:17.033
Christian Tinsley
makeup effects designer

709
00:34:17.033 --> 00:34:18.666
for Terra Fire three.

710
00:34:18.666 --> 00:34:21.400
We've sort of been communicating

711
00:34:21.400 --> 00:34:23.900
with each other over
the last six, seven,

712
00:34:23.900 --> 00:34:25.200
maybe even eight years.

713
00:34:27.033 --> 00:34:30.733
I remember when he released
the first Tar Fire movie,

714
00:34:30.733 --> 00:34:32.766
he would reach out
on social media

715
00:34:32.766 --> 00:34:35.300
and say, Hey, check
this out if you can.

716
00:34:35.300 --> 00:34:40.066
I became very close
with the FX team of the,

717
00:34:40.066 --> 00:34:43.333
from Tinsley Studios with
Brian and Heather on set

718
00:34:43.333 --> 00:34:44.733
and they said that

719
00:34:44.733 --> 00:34:47.100
that made it like a lot more
challenging not to speak

720
00:34:47.100 --> 00:34:48.633
for them, but
usually they're used

721
00:34:48.633 --> 00:34:50.500
to someone who's
not sober versed.

722
00:34:50.500 --> 00:34:52.466
So it's really cool

723
00:34:52.466 --> 00:34:54.533
'cause he'll even get in
there with a paintbrush

724
00:34:54.533 --> 00:34:56.166
and like add more blood.

725
00:34:57.600 --> 00:34:59.366
I think Heather and Christian

726
00:34:59.366 --> 00:35:01.133
and Ryan would kill
me for saying this,

727
00:35:01.133 --> 00:35:03.566
but at the end of the day they
would, they would be like,

728
00:35:03.566 --> 00:35:05.000
okay, we're gonna
take you outta makeup.

729
00:35:05.000 --> 00:35:07.700
And I'd be like, and
I'd rip the mask off

730
00:35:07.700 --> 00:35:10.166
'cause I was so like
tortured that they were like,

731
00:35:10.166 --> 00:35:11.566
no, no, no, don't do that.

732
00:35:11.566 --> 00:35:13.100
And I was like, it's fine,
it's fine, it's fine.

733
00:35:13.100 --> 00:35:15.100
And then I learned the hard
way where you don't do that.

734
00:35:15.100 --> 00:35:18.233
'cause you start to, your skin
starts to get very sensitive.

735
00:35:18.233 --> 00:35:19.466
You do that too
many days in a row.

736
00:35:20.800 --> 00:35:23.666
We used Christian Tinsleys
group to, to build a lot

737
00:35:23.666 --> 00:35:26.366
of stuff where all the
stuff, I mean all the,

738
00:35:26.366 --> 00:35:29.000
all the prosthetics, all
the, all the, the molds

739
00:35:29.000 --> 00:35:31.000
and everything and

740
00:35:31.000 --> 00:35:32.933
They're, they're
award-winning team.

741
00:35:32.933 --> 00:35:35.000
I reached out to him

742
00:35:35.000 --> 00:35:36.866
because I have a
separate company that

743
00:35:38.100 --> 00:35:41.166
Halloween merchandising
in Response came to me

744
00:35:41.166 --> 00:35:43.166
and said, well hey,
yeah, that's fine.

745
00:35:43.166 --> 00:35:44.600
And you know, I'm,
I'm in the middle

746
00:35:44.600 --> 00:35:48.800
of writing Terra Fire three
and it's gonna be big.

747
00:35:48.800 --> 00:35:51.533
And I wanted to know if you'd
be interested in taking on the

748
00:35:51.533 --> 00:35:52.666
makeup effects for me

749
00:35:52.666 --> 00:35:54.266
because I really want to sort

750
00:35:54.266 --> 00:35:56.400
of remove myself
from that aspect.

751
00:35:56.400 --> 00:35:59.466
Christian Tinsley was
the one who said, listen,

752
00:35:59.466 --> 00:36:02.033
I mean this is an
iconic character.

753
00:36:02.033 --> 00:36:05.700
He says, we can't mess up
what you've already created.

754
00:36:05.700 --> 00:36:07.266
We can't change anything.

755
00:36:07.266 --> 00:36:11.200
It has to stay as true to your
original sculpt as possible.

756
00:36:11.200 --> 00:36:13.400
So this is no longer
about me designing

757
00:36:13.400 --> 00:36:15.766
and creating something
that no one's ever seen

758
00:36:15.766 --> 00:36:17.466
or building a new
character for you.

759
00:36:17.466 --> 00:36:21.033
This is me taking
the reins from you

760
00:36:21.033 --> 00:36:23.433
to allow you the
freedom that you need

761
00:36:23.433 --> 00:36:25.000
to be a better director

762
00:36:25.000 --> 00:36:27.800
and to give more
focus on the elements

763
00:36:27.800 --> 00:36:29.266
that need Damien's attention.

764
00:36:41.033 --> 00:36:45.200
And so he sent me all his
original molds to la the art,

765
00:36:45.200 --> 00:36:48.033
the clown mold, the Victoria
mold and everything.

766
00:36:49.233 --> 00:36:51.466
And I immediately jumped
on the phone with Damien

767
00:36:51.466 --> 00:36:54.900
and I said, look,
great, I appreciate it.

768
00:36:54.900 --> 00:36:58.166
I have these, I want to
do your work justice.

769
00:36:58.166 --> 00:37:01.433
I don't want to change a thing,
but these have to be remade.

770
00:37:01.433 --> 00:37:02.666
I mean the reason
why it needed

771
00:37:02.666 --> 00:37:04.200
to be res sculpted was just

772
00:37:04.200 --> 00:37:06.366
because of the
amount of prosthetics

773
00:37:06.366 --> 00:37:09.166
that we needed made over
the course of the film.

774
00:37:09.166 --> 00:37:12.300
And I, I think I was still
running the prosthetic outta one

775
00:37:12.300 --> 00:37:15.433
of the original ultra cow
molds, which is stone mold

776
00:37:15.433 --> 00:37:18.466
that it's a very old
school way of making molds

777
00:37:18.466 --> 00:37:20.400
and it falls apart over time. I

778
00:37:20.400 --> 00:37:25.200
Went in and went in and
had a new mold done of name.

779
00:37:25.200 --> 00:37:27.133
And so we're actually
using my real face

780
00:37:28.566 --> 00:37:31.733
for Terra Fighter three and
they did a fantastic job.

781
00:37:31.733 --> 00:37:33.833
We had some of his team come out

782
00:37:33.833 --> 00:37:35.866
and actually do my
makeup for the film.

783
00:37:35.866 --> 00:37:37.233
So Damien didn't have to do it.

784
00:37:38.666 --> 00:37:43.300
And so now we have really
nice lifetime resin molds

785
00:37:43.300 --> 00:37:45.300
of all these assets.

786
00:37:45.300 --> 00:37:48.100
And, and he's, he's,
he's, he's happy

787
00:37:53.566 --> 00:37:57.133
Seeing how excited
everybody in his shop was

788
00:37:57.133 --> 00:37:58.400
to work on this.

789
00:37:58.400 --> 00:37:59.666
You know, I'm still
under the impression

790
00:37:59.666 --> 00:38:01.000
that no one really knows
what, what this is.

791
00:38:01.000 --> 00:38:02.433
And they were, they
were so excited

792
00:38:02.433 --> 00:38:04.300
and they never really
had the opportunity

793
00:38:04.300 --> 00:38:06.500
to work on a slasher,
especially one

794
00:38:06.500 --> 00:38:09.033
of this magnitude
before. When you

795
00:38:09.033 --> 00:38:12.866
See these artists that
are doing this kind of work,

796
00:38:12.866 --> 00:38:14.900
they raised the bar so
much on horror movies

797
00:38:16.000 --> 00:38:18.400
that it was
incredible to see that

798
00:38:18.400 --> 00:38:22.700
Damien has sort
of unapologetically created a project

799
00:38:22.700 --> 00:38:24.766
and said, this is
what I want to make

800
00:38:24.766 --> 00:38:26.700
and this is what I want to show.

801
00:38:26.700 --> 00:38:28.466
And if you're willing to have it

802
00:38:28.466 --> 00:38:33.000
and pay for it, $5
rental, $10 streaming,

803
00:38:33.000 --> 00:38:35.000
whatever it is, I'll continue

804
00:38:35.000 --> 00:38:36.166
to make it as long
as I have money.

805
00:38:36.166 --> 00:38:37.300
'cause this is my passion.

806
00:38:42.100 --> 00:38:43.833
He's used to being
behind the camera,

807
00:38:43.833 --> 00:38:46.100
but he's also used to
having that cup of blood

808
00:38:46.100 --> 00:38:50.000
and his gloves on so he can
rush in and do touchups and

809
00:38:50.000 --> 00:38:52.033
and add more element to it.

810
00:38:52.033 --> 00:38:55.166
'cause he was controlling the
effect as well as directing.

811
00:38:55.166 --> 00:38:57.400
And on this one I kept
telling him it's like, your,

812
00:38:57.400 --> 00:39:00.233
your job is to stand behind
camera, be as involved

813
00:39:00.233 --> 00:39:02.200
as you want, but this
is really our job.

814
00:39:05.100 --> 00:39:06.366
What the fuck?

815
00:39:08.500 --> 00:39:11.333
I'd rather just sit back and
drink coffee, be like that.

816
00:39:11.333 --> 00:39:13.766
More, more blood on that,
please, that would be great.

817
00:39:13.766 --> 00:39:15.600
But actually I still,

818
00:39:15.600 --> 00:39:18.300
I can't really keep my
hands off it totally.

819
00:39:18.300 --> 00:39:20.033
I'm sure if you see
some behind the scenes,

820
00:39:20.033 --> 00:39:22.633
I'm always in there with
blood, with a cup of blood

821
00:39:22.633 --> 00:39:24.266
and the paintbrush,
I'm always, I have

822
00:39:24.266 --> 00:39:26.600
to like meticulously
put my blood on.

823
00:39:27.900 --> 00:39:31.800
It seems like your blood
is a very specific color

824
00:39:31.800 --> 00:39:33.500
that you use in your film.

825
00:39:34.800 --> 00:39:36.833
Let's work on that. Let's
try to dial that in.

826
00:39:36.833 --> 00:39:40.033
Let's try to get something
that's gonna work well for you.

827
00:39:40.033 --> 00:39:44.500
As good as Damien is.
These guys are amazing.

828
00:39:44.500 --> 00:39:46.600
The budget was spent
on the effects.

829
00:39:57.566 --> 00:40:01.133
You've tapped into
something that not only people

830
00:40:01.133 --> 00:40:05.333
of my age for nostalgia
reasons are missing.

831
00:40:05.333 --> 00:40:09.233
And you've created a character
that fits into that zeitgeist

832
00:40:09.233 --> 00:40:12.133
of, you know, horror icons,
you know, the Freddy's,

833
00:40:12.133 --> 00:40:15.633
the Jasons, the Mike Meyers,
the people like that,

834
00:40:15.633 --> 00:40:20.500
which in itself is a, a
triumphant feat on his part.

835
00:40:24.433 --> 00:40:25.433
Sorry,

836
00:40:27.166 --> 00:40:28.700
As Damien has
said, many a times

837
00:40:28.700 --> 00:40:33.033
that Art the clown is basically
every horror icon kind

838
00:40:33.033 --> 00:40:34.300
of embodied into one.

839
00:40:34.300 --> 00:40:35.300
This

840
00:40:36.833 --> 00:40:39.433
Is God, there's a little
bit of every character.

841
00:40:39.433 --> 00:40:42.233
There's Jason Freddy, Michael
Myers, I mean they're all sort

842
00:40:42.233 --> 00:40:44.333
of baked into this character.

843
00:40:44.333 --> 00:40:46.700
So at the end of the
day, I mean, like I said,

844
00:40:46.700 --> 00:40:48.700
it's coming from a very
true organic place.

845
00:40:50.866 --> 00:40:54.766
There's a little bit of
Freddy Chucky, leather face,

846
00:40:54.766 --> 00:40:58.166
pinhead Jigsaw, all those
guys are inside of art.

847
00:41:03.700 --> 00:41:07.166
They're very sort of mindless
cold killers, which I love.

848
00:41:07.166 --> 00:41:08.433
But there's something,

849
00:41:08.433 --> 00:41:10.933
it's why people love
Freddie Krueger so much.

850
00:41:10.933 --> 00:41:13.200
It's like there's a,
there's a humanity in there

851
00:41:13.200 --> 00:41:15.233
that people could identify.

852
00:41:15.233 --> 00:41:18.100
And I think even though
art doesn't speak, there's

853
00:41:18.100 --> 00:41:21.266
so many emotions that are,
that are conveyed, you know,

854
00:41:21.266 --> 00:41:22.600
by his facial expressions.

855
00:41:32.166 --> 00:41:33.966
Oh shit, the

856
00:41:33.966 --> 00:41:35.033
First one, watch this one.

857
00:41:37.033 --> 00:41:39.400
It's in deep Freddy
Krueger's at the

858
00:41:39.400 --> 00:41:40.966
burn in the in the claw.

859
00:41:40.966 --> 00:41:43.400
But like Art the clown, he's
got his bag full of tricks.

860
00:41:47.533 --> 00:41:50.366
He's up there with
Ghost Face Scream

861
00:41:50.366 --> 00:41:54.500
and Leather Leatherface
and Pennywise

862
00:41:54.500 --> 00:41:56.766
and other horror icons.

863
00:41:56.766 --> 00:42:00.333
And I think a lot of that has
to do with the mystery between

864
00:42:00.333 --> 00:42:03.366
behind Arthur Clown because
he doesn't speak at all.

865
00:42:06.966 --> 00:42:09.333
I mean, I think there's
a few boxes that you need

866
00:42:09.333 --> 00:42:11.233
to check in order for
one of these slashers

867
00:42:11.233 --> 00:42:13.933
to really resonate
with the audience.

868
00:42:13.933 --> 00:42:16.933
First is I, they need
a striking appearance.

869
00:42:25.566 --> 00:42:29.100
I kind of look at art
as being the bastard son

870
00:42:29.100 --> 00:42:31.433
of Freddie Krueger
and Harpo Marx

871
00:42:36.266 --> 00:42:39.266
or like an evil
version of Mr. Bean.

872
00:42:39.266 --> 00:42:40.833
And so that's what I
always keep in the back

873
00:42:40.833 --> 00:42:43.866
of my head. One thing for

874
00:42:43.866 --> 00:42:45.666
Sure is I'll never
have him speak.

875
00:42:46.900 --> 00:42:48.433
A lot of people ask,
is he ever gonna talk?

876
00:42:48.433 --> 00:42:51.300
Is he ever gonna speak? No,
I could honestly say, he'll,

877
00:42:51.300 --> 00:42:53.500
he'll never speak because
it would never live up

878
00:42:53.500 --> 00:42:56.100
to the expectations of what
his voice could sound like

879
00:42:56.100 --> 00:42:58.100
or what, what the,
that one word would be.

880
00:42:58.100 --> 00:42:59.200
Or that one line would be

881
00:43:04.800 --> 00:43:07.566
You have many clowns

882
00:43:07.566 --> 00:43:11.600
and they're all, they all
talk like, I think Pennywise,

883
00:43:11.600 --> 00:43:16.300
Steven, Steven King's Pennywise
particularly Tim Curry's,

884
00:43:16.300 --> 00:43:17.866
I think is one of
the best portrayals

885
00:43:17.866 --> 00:43:19.266
of evil clowns in history.

886
00:43:20.166 --> 00:43:25.133
Hi Georgie, aren't

887
00:43:25.133 --> 00:43:26.866
You going to say hello?

888
00:43:26.866 --> 00:43:29.600
Most popular clown,
arguably still is, right?

889
00:43:29.600 --> 00:43:31.233
Is Tim Curry's Pennywise.

890
00:43:31.233 --> 00:43:33.300
I mean, he's the king
of all killer clowns.

891
00:43:33.300 --> 00:43:36.800
So I said I can't do anything
even remotely close to what

892
00:43:36.800 --> 00:43:38.766
that character looks like.

893
00:43:38.766 --> 00:43:40.600
Just visually his personality.

894
00:43:40.600 --> 00:43:44.733
I, Georgie and Pennywise,
the Dancing Clown,

895
00:43:44.733 --> 00:43:46.966
He's the granddaddy of
all the killer clowns from,

896
00:43:46.966 --> 00:43:48.533
you know, horror movies.

897
00:43:48.533 --> 00:43:52.200
And so yeah, he definitely,
you know, both versions of him,

898
00:43:52.200 --> 00:43:54.433
I I found things
that both Tim Curry

899
00:43:54.433 --> 00:43:56.266
and Bill Karska did
with the character.

900
00:43:56.266 --> 00:43:57.266
I was like, oh, I like that.

901
00:44:00.600 --> 00:44:02.033
But like I would
say it's little bits

902
00:44:02.033 --> 00:44:04.300
and pieces of all those
slashes that we all grew up on

903
00:44:04.300 --> 00:44:06.600
and loved and, you know, watched

904
00:44:06.600 --> 00:44:10.900
- Beep beep, Richie
- Come back anytime.

905
00:44:10.900 --> 00:44:14.000
So I decided to
make him as like,

906
00:44:14.000 --> 00:44:15.733
as colorless as possible.

907
00:44:15.733 --> 00:44:17.133
So I just went black and white.

908
00:44:17.133 --> 00:44:18.533
I said I didn't want
to give him hair.

909
00:44:18.533 --> 00:44:20.266
I didn't want to give
him the bulbous red nose.

910
00:44:20.266 --> 00:44:22.666
I love the comic book Joker.

911
00:44:22.666 --> 00:44:24.633
I just love visually
the way he looks.

912
00:44:28.766 --> 00:44:31.066
Damien was very smart in
making art the clown the

913
00:44:31.066 --> 00:44:32.366
opposite of that.

914
00:44:32.366 --> 00:44:34.100
You know, Tim Curry
talks and he has puns.

915
00:44:34.100 --> 00:44:36.266
Art the clown is
quiet and silent.

916
00:44:36.266 --> 00:44:37.966
Tim Curry's a Shapeshifter.

917
00:44:37.966 --> 00:44:40.900
Art the clown is a little more
humanesque at least in the

918
00:44:40.900 --> 00:44:43.100
beginning until he
becomes this entity.

919
00:44:43.100 --> 00:44:46.366
That's the real deal.
That's my, that's my beard.

920
00:44:46.366 --> 00:44:48.600
If Santa doesn't
have a real beard,

921
00:44:48.600 --> 00:44:51.300
he's not a real Santa Claus.

922
00:44:51.300 --> 00:44:54.866
When I hear people using the
iconic term, I'm like, ah, I,

923
00:44:54.866 --> 00:44:57.533
I don't fuel myself personally,

924
00:44:57.533 --> 00:45:00.100
but we've gotten
to that place yet

925
00:45:00.100 --> 00:45:02.400
because those guys like Freddy,

926
00:45:02.400 --> 00:45:05.133
all those guys tho
those are my icons.

927
00:45:05.133 --> 00:45:07.600
He's Freddy Kruger with, you
know, the same personality,

928
00:45:07.600 --> 00:45:09.800
but he doesn't talk, you
know, so there's a lot

929
00:45:09.800 --> 00:45:12.000
of elements there that
are similar but different.

930
00:45:17.900 --> 00:45:21.333
It's weird for me to be
equated in the same sentence

931
00:45:21.333 --> 00:45:22.866
with those guys yet.

932
00:45:22.866 --> 00:45:27.333
I don't know if I will ever
be like, okay with that.

933
00:45:27.333 --> 00:45:29.666
You walk into a
Spirit Halloween store

934
00:45:29.666 --> 00:45:33.900
and there's a Freddie Kruger
mask and a Jason Hocking mask

935
00:45:33.900 --> 00:45:35.400
and Art de Clown.

936
00:45:35.400 --> 00:45:39.000
That means that this
character has ascended

937
00:45:39.000 --> 00:45:43.400
to the mythological level
of those other characters.

938
00:45:43.400 --> 00:45:45.033
Hey, if other people
wanna say it, that's fine.

939
00:45:53.866 --> 00:45:57.733
We want better, better
lighting, better acting,

940
00:45:57.733 --> 00:45:59.966
and a little bit more of
a background for Sienna.

941
00:45:59.966 --> 00:46:02.033
'cause I think that's something
that our audience wants.

942
00:46:02.033 --> 00:46:04.633
The 20-year-old was arrested
at the crime scene and taking

943
00:46:04.633 --> 00:46:08.300
Lauren please
Sanna is fantastic.

944
00:46:08.300 --> 00:46:12.000
She's treated me like a a
little brother since the get go,

945
00:46:12.000 --> 00:46:13.800
since the very first audition,

946
00:46:13.800 --> 00:46:15.600
Do you have any super glue?

947
00:46:15.600 --> 00:46:19.100
- A little
- What happened?

948
00:46:19.100 --> 00:46:20.700
- Shrink came off.
- I thought you

949
00:46:20.700 --> 00:46:22.333
weren't gonna wear
this tomorrow.

950
00:46:22.333 --> 00:46:24.933
I'm gonna clean my
face then. Come on.

951
00:46:24.933 --> 00:46:27.000
It's too late to get
into the costume.

952
00:46:27.000 --> 00:46:29.400
- Lemme see.
- I love Elliot.

953
00:46:29.400 --> 00:46:33.000
I really do feel
that he's my brother.

954
00:46:33.000 --> 00:46:35.533
I'm very close with
him and his family.

955
00:46:35.533 --> 00:46:38.733
I was so impressed with
his performance this time.

956
00:46:38.733 --> 00:46:40.133
I thought he did
great last time too.

957
00:46:40.133 --> 00:46:41.566
But he's really grown

958
00:46:41.566 --> 00:46:43.300
as an artist. Everyone,
I'm just really

959
00:46:43.300 --> 00:46:44.300
Happy.

960
00:46:44.300 --> 00:46:46.500
I'm just really happy. Hi.

961
00:46:46.500 --> 00:46:49.266
And Action Court is shutting

962
00:46:49.266 --> 00:46:50.666
Me off.

963
00:46:50.666 --> 00:46:52.333
I'm not shutting you out.
You don't believe me.

964
00:46:53.233 --> 00:46:54.933
Why would he come back here?

965
00:46:54.933 --> 00:46:57.566
Even if he was alive,
which he isn't.

966
00:46:57.566 --> 00:46:59.300
When you wanna get as far
away from here as possible,

967
00:46:59.300 --> 00:47:00.766
as far away from you,
maybe it's me, they want,

968
00:47:00.766 --> 00:47:02.333
isn't that what you said?

969
00:47:02.333 --> 00:47:05.466
I've said this to Lauren,
I've never seen an actor go

970
00:47:05.466 --> 00:47:07.966
to the place and the
depth that she's gone.

971
00:47:07.966 --> 00:47:10.033
And I've worked with a lot of
actors in different capacities

972
00:47:10.033 --> 00:47:12.000
or been an actor myself.

973
00:47:12.000 --> 00:47:16.000
And to watch that
was terrifying.

974
00:47:16.000 --> 00:47:18.066
But also one of the most
amazing things I've seen.

975
00:47:18.066 --> 00:47:20.700
I I would say in in Terra
there are definitely some newer

976
00:47:20.700 --> 00:47:22.500
characters and added into it.

977
00:47:22.500 --> 00:47:24.233
I mean, you have the me

978
00:47:24.233 --> 00:47:28.733
and Cole characters
that are with Jonathan,

979
00:47:28.733 --> 00:47:31.133
hi friends from
college, his roommate

980
00:47:31.133 --> 00:47:35.100
and his girlfriend, which
they were a lot of fun to love

981
00:47:35.100 --> 00:47:36.500
to hear from you
to interact with

982
00:47:36.500 --> 00:47:39.733
because you know, her
character's very obsessed

983
00:47:39.733 --> 00:47:42.366
with this art, the
clown character.

984
00:47:42.366 --> 00:47:45.166
She's like, she almost
kind of idolizes him.

985
00:47:45.166 --> 00:47:48.400
Sienna, you're Shaw.

986
00:47:48.400 --> 00:47:50.233
I, I, seriously.

987
00:47:50.233 --> 00:47:52.366
So I can't believe I'm
sitting here with you guys.

988
00:47:52.366 --> 00:47:54.633
I was literally just
telling your little brother,

989
00:47:54.633 --> 00:47:56.000
I'm sorry I'm, I'm probably
being a little weird.

990
00:47:56.000 --> 00:47:58.466
I'm just, I'm super
stoked to see, to see you.

991
00:47:59.800 --> 00:48:02.066
Mia has been
following our story.

992
00:48:02.066 --> 00:48:04.266
Jonathan has been on
a really wild journey,

993
00:48:04.266 --> 00:48:06.333
especially just since
the jump from Terra Fire

994
00:48:06.333 --> 00:48:07.500
two to Terrify Fire three.

995
00:48:07.500 --> 00:48:09.433
He has gone through a lot.

996
00:48:09.433 --> 00:48:12.600
I think our audience
is gonna get a little bit

997
00:48:12.600 --> 00:48:15.000
of a backstory for Sienna.

998
00:48:15.000 --> 00:48:17.266
So I think that's
gonna be huge for them.

999
00:48:17.266 --> 00:48:20.833
I know a lot of people have
been craving more of a story

1000
00:48:20.833 --> 00:48:23.166
for both Art The
Clown and Sienna.

1001
00:48:23.166 --> 00:48:26.500
And I think with this they
get a little bit of, of both.

1002
00:48:26.500 --> 00:48:28.700
All right, big energy.
Ready, here we go. And action.

1003
00:48:31.300 --> 00:48:35.266
I really love what
Damien continues to do

1004
00:48:35.266 --> 00:48:36.333
with this character.

1005
00:48:37.433 --> 00:48:40.933
He makes her so
interesting and strong

1006
00:48:40.933 --> 00:48:44.466
and vulnerable, which
I really love to play.

1007
00:48:44.466 --> 00:48:46.300
But there's this whole sequence

1008
00:48:46.300 --> 00:48:48.200
where Sienna is duct
taped to a chair.

1009
00:48:48.200 --> 00:48:51.233
And I remember having
issues about it with Damien

1010
00:48:51.233 --> 00:48:53.366
and I was like, I don't
think duct tape is enough.

1011
00:48:53.366 --> 00:48:56.033
Like I, I think after
everything she's gone through,

1012
00:48:56.033 --> 00:48:57.300
she's gonna get
outta this duct tape.

1013
00:48:57.300 --> 00:48:59.166
And he's like, trust me,
you won't get out of it.

1014
00:48:59.166 --> 00:49:00.866
So I asked the art department

1015
00:49:00.866 --> 00:49:05.500
to duct tape me multiple times
from my wrist to my elbow.

1016
00:49:05.500 --> 00:49:07.000
So I was fully duct taped

1017
00:49:07.000 --> 00:49:08.766
because I was thrashing
in that chair.

1018
00:49:08.766 --> 00:49:10.166
And every time I got out of it,

1019
00:49:10.166 --> 00:49:11.633
they had to duct tape me again.

1020
00:49:11.633 --> 00:49:15.800
'cause I was so fully engulfed
in what was happening.

1021
00:49:15.800 --> 00:49:18.066
And, and adrenaline
alone was enough

1022
00:49:18.066 --> 00:49:19.166
to get me out of that chair.

1023
00:49:29.766 --> 00:49:33.633
We wanted to progress their
story in some interesting ways

1024
00:49:33.633 --> 00:49:37.833
because, you know, what they'd
gone through in part two

1025
00:49:37.833 --> 00:49:39.166
was traumatic.

1026
00:49:39.166 --> 00:49:42.300
And we wanted to
address how that affects

1027
00:49:44.133 --> 00:49:46.300
trauma victims going forward.

1028
00:49:46.300 --> 00:49:48.133
Because I don't really see

1029
00:49:48.133 --> 00:49:51.166
that a lot in slash
your franchisees. You're

1030
00:49:51.166 --> 00:49:52.166
Bad.

1031
00:49:52.166 --> 00:49:52.833
- No,
- I'm

1032
00:49:54.833 --> 00:49:55.833
Let see you.

1033
00:49:57.066 --> 00:50:01.200
Are you okay? Oh my God,
you really get to see

1034
00:50:01.200 --> 00:50:03.333
that more in Terrifi Fire three.

1035
00:50:03.333 --> 00:50:08.033
I mean, you can still see the,
the hardships that she's went

1036
00:50:08.033 --> 00:50:09.533
through, especially

1037
00:50:09.533 --> 00:50:13.666
because she's been in
the Mental Institute for

1038
00:50:13.666 --> 00:50:16.600
however many years, probably
like five years at this point.

1039
00:50:16.600 --> 00:50:18.133
So you get to see all that.

1040
00:50:18.133 --> 00:50:19.566
She kind of wears
it on her sleeve,

1041
00:50:19.566 --> 00:50:23.200
but she still has that strength
buried deep beneath her.

1042
00:50:35.133 --> 00:50:39.166
I feel like Jonathan
contributes a lot with Storyline

1043
00:50:39.166 --> 00:50:43.900
and both that once again,
that dynamic between si, sna

1044
00:50:43.900 --> 00:50:47.833
and Jonathan, just
having that altercation

1045
00:50:47.833 --> 00:50:50.166
and conversations
about art and stuff.

1046
00:50:50.166 --> 00:50:53.200
I feel like it sets,
sets some cool stuff up.

1047
00:50:54.433 --> 00:50:56.433
We see a new side
of Victoria in this,

1048
00:50:56.433 --> 00:50:59.533
and this gave Samantha
graffiti the place her

1049
00:50:59.533 --> 00:51:01.533
a lot more to do.

1050
00:51:01.533 --> 00:51:05.233
And she was able to go to
some very interesting places

1051
00:51:05.233 --> 00:51:07.966
and she was able to
really flex her her wings

1052
00:51:07.966 --> 00:51:11.000
as an actress instead of
playing the damsel in distress.

1053
00:51:11.000 --> 00:51:15.300
She got to be, you know,
the accomplice, oh,

1054
00:51:15.300 --> 00:51:16.900
you're no savior.

1055
00:51:22.366 --> 00:51:27.266
Ooh, the

1056
00:51:27.266 --> 00:51:31.933
Victoria character plays
a lot in this film.

1057
00:51:31.933 --> 00:51:34.866
Anne goes through a
couple transitions

1058
00:51:34.866 --> 00:51:37.400
and so we were going to
add to her look as well

1059
00:51:37.400 --> 00:51:38.966
as incorporate
her original look.

1060
00:51:40.500 --> 00:51:43.733
Victoria Hayes in the third
film is completely possessed

1061
00:51:43.733 --> 00:51:46.333
and she herself is
no longer exists.

1062
00:51:46.333 --> 00:51:48.166
And that's because
there's an entity

1063
00:51:48.166 --> 00:51:50.400
that in the terrifi
lore is the entity

1064
00:51:50.400 --> 00:51:52.566
that makes art the
clown supernatural.

1065
00:51:52.566 --> 00:51:56.633
And so because of of
this entity, he's able

1066
00:51:56.633 --> 00:51:59.133
to come back from the dead.

1067
00:51:59.133 --> 00:52:03.233
And I mean has these
supernatural powers that we see in two

1068
00:52:03.233 --> 00:52:04.300
and in now three.

1069
00:52:05.800 --> 00:52:09.233
And that her coming into this
world through Victoria Hayes

1070
00:52:09.233 --> 00:52:12.200
as a vessel enables
him to have his powers,

1071
00:52:12.200 --> 00:52:13.866
but also enables her to exist.

1072
00:52:13.866 --> 00:52:17.533
And they have to become like
team members or teammates.

1073
00:52:17.533 --> 00:52:22.266
I love watching Sienna
and Victoria's dynamic.

1074
00:52:22.266 --> 00:52:26.633
They just, they have this
visceral reaction to each other

1075
00:52:26.633 --> 00:52:29.600
and it is really so fun to see.

1076
00:52:40.733 --> 00:52:42.700
Oh yes, glorious freedom.

1077
00:52:43.633 --> 00:52:47.800
Oh, oh my goodness.

1078
00:52:49.133 --> 00:52:51.533
Oh, it's so nice, nice.

1079
00:52:56.366 --> 00:52:57.933
I'm not really
sure what day it is.

1080
00:52:57.933 --> 00:53:01.700
Maybe 17 of Terra Fire three,
but doing a mall sequence.

1081
00:53:02.833 --> 00:53:04.500
We got our Santa display.

1082
00:53:04.500 --> 00:53:08.200
Well, my favorite scenes
to film in the movie was

1083
00:53:08.200 --> 00:53:11.266
with some of my icons.

1084
00:53:11.266 --> 00:53:15.300
I, I I I idolize, you know,
growing up watching films

1085
00:53:15.300 --> 00:53:18.566
with Daniel Robuck
and Clint Howard.

1086
00:53:18.566 --> 00:53:21.733
It's just this fun bar
scene with these guys.

1087
00:53:23.066 --> 00:53:25.966
- He peed on him.
- I've been in a lot of movies

1088
00:53:25.966 --> 00:53:30.400
and what we're always
looking for is a little flash

1089
00:53:30.400 --> 00:53:31.500
of magic.

1090
00:53:43.766 --> 00:53:44.466
That's good.

1091
00:53:48.100 --> 00:53:49.233
Okay, that's enough.

1092
00:53:50.100 --> 00:53:52.166
Daniel Roebuck plays Santa Claus

1093
00:53:52.166 --> 00:53:55.600
and Clint Howard plays
the town Drunk Smokey.

1094
00:53:55.600 --> 00:54:00.333
And just seeing those
two guys bring their a

1095
00:54:00.333 --> 00:54:03.000
game and that was, that
was a scene where I allowed

1096
00:54:03.000 --> 00:54:04.800
so much improvisation

1097
00:54:04.800 --> 00:54:06.566
and we were coming up
with hysterical things on

1098
00:54:06.566 --> 00:54:07.600
the spot. What's so

1099
00:54:07.600 --> 00:54:09.133
Goddamn fun?

1100
00:54:09.133 --> 00:54:12.033
I'll tell you what, cloudy I'll
kick your fucking clown ad.

1101
00:54:12.033 --> 00:54:13.933
I don't fucking,
it's never too gory.

1102
00:54:13.933 --> 00:54:17.900
You cannot have enough
tubes running into the body.

1103
00:54:17.900 --> 00:54:20.400
You can't have enough
tearing of flesh.

1104
00:54:20.400 --> 00:54:23.000
Like you literally
can't have enough of it.

1105
00:54:24.500 --> 00:54:27.433
Can't a fucking hint game.
I'm not gonna tell you again.

1106
00:54:33.300 --> 00:54:36.633
Oh fuck. When my
friends were so successful

1107
00:54:36.633 --> 00:54:41.300
with Tar Fire two, I thought
I wanna be part of that.

1108
00:54:41.300 --> 00:54:44.300
So who will I be playing
in Terra Fire three?

1109
00:54:44.300 --> 00:54:47.133
And Michael Levy one day said,

1110
00:54:47.133 --> 00:54:49.733
we've got a great part for you.

1111
00:54:49.733 --> 00:54:52.600
And you know, I got all excited.

1112
00:54:52.600 --> 00:54:55.700
And then they secretly
told me what it was,

1113
00:54:55.700 --> 00:54:57.466
gosh, two years ago.

1114
00:54:57.466 --> 00:55:00.966
And I was beyond myself with

1115
00:55:00.966 --> 00:55:02.233
Excitement.

1116
00:55:02.233 --> 00:55:03.266
Get the beautiful making

1117
00:55:03.266 --> 00:55:04.266
Party.

1118
00:55:04.266 --> 00:55:05.533
Seeing them together was cool.

1119
00:55:05.533 --> 00:55:08.266
And seeing how that
scene became special

1120
00:55:08.266 --> 00:55:09.766
because of them was really cool

1121
00:55:09.766 --> 00:55:11.966
because it was one of the
funnest ones on set. That's why

1122
00:55:11.966 --> 00:55:13.066
It's so fun.

1123
00:55:13.066 --> 00:55:14.700
And you can tell
he's fun to watch.

1124
00:55:14.700 --> 00:55:16.533
Him and Clint both
were fun to watch.

1125
00:55:16.533 --> 00:55:19.033
They're, they're fun,
they're great performers.

1126
00:55:19.033 --> 00:55:22.866
Santa Claus is frozen
and then chiseled to death.

1127
00:55:22.866 --> 00:55:26.966
Horrible. You know, you come
face to face with yourself

1128
00:55:26.966 --> 00:55:28.633
is one thing to
come face to face

1129
00:55:28.633 --> 00:55:32.866
with your eviscerated self
is something altogether.

1130
00:55:32.866 --> 00:55:36.133
Ah, why would they do

1131
00:55:36.133 --> 00:55:38.300
This to such a nice person?

1132
00:55:38.300 --> 00:55:40.133
And Clint Howard too is, it's,

1133
00:55:40.133 --> 00:55:41.666
it's the name doesn't
mean anything.

1134
00:55:41.666 --> 00:55:43.366
He's just a regular guy
just talking to you.

1135
00:55:43.366 --> 00:55:45.300
That's, that's how he is.

1136
00:55:45.300 --> 00:55:47.100
Hey, why don't you
tell Santa what you want

1137
00:55:47.100 --> 00:55:48.600
for Christmas? Little boy,

1138
00:55:48.600 --> 00:55:49.900
Better hygiene.

1139
00:55:49.900 --> 00:55:51.200
Alright, come on,
let's have a drink.

1140
00:55:51.200 --> 00:55:52.800
He approached me. We
met at a convention.

1141
00:55:52.800 --> 00:55:54.766
We were both guests and
we were just hanging

1142
00:55:54.766 --> 00:55:56.200
out at the bar one day.

1143
00:55:56.200 --> 00:55:57.900
And I think he said, you know,

1144
00:55:57.900 --> 00:55:59.200
he would love to,
to work with me.

1145
00:55:59.200 --> 00:56:00.566
He'd love to be in
one of these films.

1146
00:56:00.566 --> 00:56:01.966
And then when I wrote
the script, I was like,

1147
00:56:01.966 --> 00:56:04.033
Clint would be great in
this, this role right here.

1148
00:56:04.033 --> 00:56:06.700
Clint Howard. I, I'll be
honest with you, you know,

1149
00:56:06.700 --> 00:56:09.900
I've seen him my whole
life, you know, in films

1150
00:56:09.900 --> 00:56:12.833
and dynamite guy,
really dynamite guy.

1151
00:56:12.833 --> 00:56:15.166
I, I couldn't believe I like
got along really well with him.

1152
00:56:15.166 --> 00:56:17.600
I sat with him and
his wife had a ball

1153
00:56:17.600 --> 00:56:20.300
Action with the kidding,

1154
00:56:23.400 --> 00:56:25.200
The Santa Claus is
drinking at the end

1155
00:56:25.200 --> 00:56:27.300
of the Daylin
Howard is his buddy.

1156
00:56:27.300 --> 00:56:29.900
Bradley Stryker is, you
know, the bartender.

1157
00:56:29.900 --> 00:56:32.100
And we're just, you
know, sitting and,

1158
00:56:32.100 --> 00:56:35.966
and I mistake him like
any performer would.

1159
00:56:35.966 --> 00:56:39.600
I'm like, I'm a guy acting, oh,
here's a guy. He is a clown.

1160
00:56:39.600 --> 00:56:42.400
And I'm like, we're in the
same business. You and me.

1161
00:56:42.400 --> 00:56:46.466
You know, David Howard
Thornton in this makeup

1162
00:56:47.466 --> 00:56:49.666
is as creepy

1163
00:56:49.666 --> 00:56:53.066
as any single thing
you've ever seen.

1164
00:56:53.066 --> 00:56:54.333
Oh God. Oh God, no.

1165
00:56:54.333 --> 00:56:57.500
Oh God, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no sir. No sir.

1166
00:56:57.500 --> 00:57:00.166
No, no, no sir. No, no.
Please, please, please.

1167
00:57:01.666 --> 00:57:04.033
It was great working with
Danny Robuck and Flynn Howard.

1168
00:57:04.033 --> 00:57:06.400
A lot of fun. It was
actually one of the most

1169
00:57:06.400 --> 00:57:07.900
fun times that we had on set.

1170
00:57:07.900 --> 00:57:10.900
'cause both of 'em, not only
are staples in the horror

1171
00:57:10.900 --> 00:57:14.133
genre, but they're also really
great comedians as well.

1172
00:57:14.133 --> 00:57:16.800
And they've come from a
background of comedy all around.

1173
00:57:16.800 --> 00:57:18.833
Even when tensions are high,
he's always making jokes.

1174
00:57:18.833 --> 00:57:20.400
He's always having a good time.

1175
00:57:20.400 --> 00:57:22.933
Like Dan is really, you know,
a down to earth type of guy.

1176
00:57:22.933 --> 00:57:24.333
Working with Danny

1177
00:57:24.333 --> 00:57:26.266
and Clinton, that
scene was a lot of fun

1178
00:57:26.266 --> 00:57:27.800
because that's, that's the scene

1179
00:57:27.800 --> 00:57:30.700
that's kinda like the costume
shop scene in part two.

1180
00:57:30.700 --> 00:57:32.766
Or the pizzeria
scene in part one

1181
00:57:32.766 --> 00:57:36.600
where art just goes
in there and res havoc

1182
00:57:36.600 --> 00:57:39.700
and messes around
with people in public

1183
00:57:39.700 --> 00:57:41.266
and then bad things happen.

1184
00:57:41.266 --> 00:57:44.566
Come on. Oh, look
on please, please cla

1185
00:57:44.566 --> 00:57:47.100
help me, please.

1186
00:57:47.100 --> 00:57:50.600
Good. I'm good. Help me
out. Good. Lanny. Come on.

1187
00:57:51.533 --> 00:57:53.466
Oh, oh, oh, oh.

1188
00:57:54.966 --> 00:57:58.300
Danny really brought, oh,
brought his a game during the,

1189
00:57:58.300 --> 00:58:00.333
during his, his death scene.

1190
00:58:00.333 --> 00:58:04.733
Some of our crew actually
could hear him screaming

1191
00:58:04.733 --> 00:58:08.800
and basically pleading for
his life from, from far away.

1192
00:58:08.800 --> 00:58:10.333
Help me, help

1193
00:58:10.333 --> 00:58:12.233
Me, help me.

1194
00:58:13.333 --> 00:58:16.466
Damien took that
simple two-tone clown

1195
00:58:17.800 --> 00:58:22.300
and he created a thing
with an actor, the perfect

1196
00:58:22.300 --> 00:58:24.800
blend of the makeup
and the actor.

1197
00:58:24.800 --> 00:58:28.700
And it's terrifying.
It's terrifying.

1198
00:58:28.700 --> 00:58:32.766
We had this playground, this
idea that we could sort of

1199
00:58:32.766 --> 00:58:34.266
go back and that would be okay

1200
00:58:34.266 --> 00:58:36.966
and it would actually,
in some ways be better

1201
00:58:36.966 --> 00:58:40.366
because we're,
we're making it look

1202
00:58:40.366 --> 00:58:43.100
and feel like an old
1980s horror film.

1203
00:58:45.400 --> 00:58:48.100
It was a lot of fun on and
off the set, working with them.

1204
00:58:48.100 --> 00:58:50.200
I've worked with Danny on a
few projects, actually, one

1205
00:58:50.200 --> 00:58:52.066
of which is Stream.

1206
00:58:52.066 --> 00:58:55.300
And we did it right
before Terror Fire three.

1207
00:58:55.300 --> 00:58:57.333
And that's where
Damien had met Danny

1208
00:58:57.333 --> 00:58:59.566
and, you know, decided
to put him in this film.

1209
00:58:59.566 --> 00:59:02.066
And it was just a, a riot

1210
00:59:02.066 --> 00:59:06.200
What Damien did in
his, in his genius

1211
00:59:06.200 --> 00:59:10.066
or in his limited
budget, he made a movie

1212
00:59:10.066 --> 00:59:12.633
that seemed like you
were watching it right

1213
00:59:12.633 --> 00:59:15.900
after you watched Maniac
starring Joe Spinel

1214
00:59:23.366 --> 00:59:24.466
mean Yeah, yeah.

1215
00:59:24.466 --> 00:59:28.133
The, the visceral
reaction to the,

1216
00:59:28.133 --> 00:59:31.100
the onscreen violence.

1217
00:59:31.100 --> 00:59:35.033
And you were transported
to another time.

1218
00:59:35.033 --> 00:59:37.866
You know, these movies were
like something you'd see on 42nd

1219
00:59:37.866 --> 00:59:39.366
Street in New York.

1220
00:59:47.000 --> 00:59:49.266
We added more tubes,
we added more of this.

1221
00:59:49.266 --> 00:59:52.633
We, we ended up, you
know, ripping this part of the body off

1222
00:59:52.633 --> 00:59:53.700
and, you know, figuring out how

1223
00:59:53.700 --> 00:59:55.133
to make the, the effect work.

1224
00:59:55.133 --> 00:59:58.566
And so it was a constant
reconstruction of the effects

1225
00:59:58.566 --> 00:59:59.833
that we were sending to him.

1226
01:00:01.066 --> 01:00:04.700
It was fun, really
getting to play around

1227
01:00:04.700 --> 01:00:06.100
with Clint

1228
01:00:06.100 --> 01:00:08.366
and also Bradley Striker
who's in the scene with us.

1229
01:00:08.366 --> 01:00:10.166
The three of us had

1230
01:00:10.166 --> 01:00:13.966
so much fun those
days just playing.

1231
01:00:13.966 --> 01:00:15.366
The people my age love it

1232
01:00:15.366 --> 01:00:19.333
because it reminds us of
those Helion days when Dawn

1233
01:00:19.333 --> 01:00:20.666
of the Dead came out

1234
01:00:20.666 --> 01:00:24.066
and you'd see a, a
zombie bite someone's arm

1235
01:00:24.066 --> 01:00:28.133
and you'd see the viscera and
the, you know, the, the bone

1236
01:00:28.133 --> 01:00:29.766
and everything come
out in their mouth.

1237
01:00:29.766 --> 01:00:31.566
And you had never
seen that before.

1238
01:00:36.800 --> 01:00:39.100
Damien figured it out
when nobody else could.

1239
01:00:39.100 --> 01:00:42.066
He made it, made it old
fashioned and new fashioned.

1240
01:00:46.866 --> 01:00:51.566
Maybe like Obiwan
Kenobi Art the clown.

1241
01:00:51.566 --> 01:00:55.300
Come use use, use
the fos, you know,

1242
01:00:55.300 --> 01:00:56.900
and I'll be like a ghost

1243
01:00:56.900 --> 01:00:59.333
of Santa Claus who's
in all the movies.

1244
01:00:59.333 --> 01:01:02.000
That would be good. I'm
gonna, I'm gonna try for that.

1245
01:01:09.766 --> 01:01:11.900
So with Terra Fire two

1246
01:01:11.900 --> 01:01:13.666
and three, we've sort

1247
01:01:13.666 --> 01:01:18.066
of taken a supernatural
detour in the Arthur,

1248
01:01:18.066 --> 01:01:20.700
the clown franchise, let's
call it now at this point

1249
01:01:29.866 --> 01:01:32.800
where once I decided to bring
him back from the dead at the

1250
01:01:32.800 --> 01:01:34.533
end of part one,

1251
01:01:34.533 --> 01:01:38.600
I figured we should
really embrace the supernatural element.

1252
01:01:38.600 --> 01:01:42.366
Like what is this evil that's
resurrected this killer?

1253
01:01:46.766 --> 01:01:48.333
I think the main
thing that de Damien

1254
01:01:48.333 --> 01:01:51.333
and I had discussed early
on was that we wanted

1255
01:01:51.333 --> 01:01:52.666
to find something
that hadn't been done

1256
01:01:52.666 --> 01:01:54.366
before with a possession,

1257
01:01:55.566 --> 01:01:57.533
but we wanted her
to be fun and fresh.

1258
01:01:57.533 --> 01:01:58.833
Something that was different.

1259
01:02:00.333 --> 01:02:05.300
And I really hope
that people laugh and,

1260
01:02:05.300 --> 01:02:06.733
and enjoy her and, and,

1261
01:02:06.733 --> 01:02:08.666
and know that she's
absolutely balls to the wall.

1262
01:02:08.666 --> 01:02:10.466
Ridiculous. 'cause she is, and,

1263
01:02:10.466 --> 01:02:11.733
and does some extreme things.

1264
01:02:13.233 --> 01:02:16.466
The hardest part honestly
for me as a costume designer,

1265
01:02:16.466 --> 01:02:19.500
when he is already an
established character is all the

1266
01:02:19.500 --> 01:02:21.666
continuity of the
blood and everything.

1267
01:02:21.666 --> 01:02:23.933
'cause we don't shoot
in sequence of course.

1268
01:02:23.933 --> 01:02:27.300
'cause that would be easy.
So to go back to like,

1269
01:02:27.300 --> 01:02:29.300
say pristine look
and everything.

1270
01:02:29.300 --> 01:02:34.200
So we had to make probably
about eight of the costumes,

1271
01:02:34.200 --> 01:02:35.600
just the black and white.

1272
01:02:35.600 --> 01:02:39.333
And then the Santa, we
probably made about four.

1273
01:02:39.333 --> 01:02:42.233
Blood is so uncomfortable,
especially the blood.

1274
01:02:42.233 --> 01:02:44.700
Damien likes to use, he likes
to use the sticky blood.

1275
01:02:49.633 --> 01:02:52.466
We've just opened up
this other dimension

1276
01:02:52.466 --> 01:02:53.800
and let's really explore that.

1277
01:02:53.800 --> 01:02:55.166
Let's not just gloss over it.

1278
01:02:55.166 --> 01:02:57.733
Let's, let's embrace it
and see what could that

1279
01:02:57.733 --> 01:03:00.500
entity be doing and why is
it doing what it's doing.

1280
01:03:00.500 --> 01:03:03.400
So we've, we've explored
that in part two

1281
01:03:03.400 --> 01:03:06.866
and we really brought up a lot
of questions where now we're,

1282
01:03:06.866 --> 01:03:08.666
we're answering those questions

1283
01:03:08.666 --> 01:03:10.733
and addressing
them in part three.

1284
01:03:12.333 --> 01:03:16.666
Oh good. I want
them to, to love me

1285
01:03:16.666 --> 01:03:17.833
and hate me all
at the same time.

1286
01:03:17.833 --> 01:03:19.833
I want them to have
fun watching me.

1287
01:03:19.833 --> 01:03:22.366
And then I want them
to applaud, you know,

1288
01:03:22.366 --> 01:03:24.900
as I go out in my last chapter.

1289
01:03:24.900 --> 01:03:28.566
So that's, that's, if that
can happen, I'm, I'm good

1290
01:03:28.566 --> 01:03:29.800
For this one.

1291
01:03:29.800 --> 01:03:31.333
I wanted to make him
a little bit more

1292
01:03:33.566 --> 01:03:34.966
cocky and arrogant.

1293
01:03:36.300 --> 01:03:39.733
'cause he's, he's come back
from the dead twice now

1294
01:03:39.733 --> 01:03:42.800
and he's, he's having a lot
more fun, I guess you could say.

1295
01:03:42.800 --> 01:03:45.166
Also, especially since
he has Victoria with him.

1296
01:03:47.266 --> 01:03:51.300
In the original Terra Fire
Art wore black contact lenses

1297
01:03:52.233 --> 01:03:54.600
and then they got destroyed.

1298
01:03:54.600 --> 01:03:56.200
We only had one pair

1299
01:03:56.200 --> 01:03:57.933
and then I think by the end of
the movie they got destroyed.

1300
01:03:57.933 --> 01:04:01.066
So then it turned
into, Dave's realize,

1301
01:04:03.800 --> 01:04:07.200
I'm sorry, nice.

1302
01:04:08.666 --> 01:04:09.666
Nothing.

1303
01:04:11.000 --> 01:04:12.733
So then by the time we
made part two, I said,

1304
01:04:12.733 --> 01:04:14.133
just leave the contacts out.

1305
01:04:14.133 --> 01:04:16.100
They're a pain in the
ass and we will just play

1306
01:04:16.100 --> 01:04:17.833
it as you're normalized.

1307
01:04:17.833 --> 01:04:20.466
But I always wanted
this character.

1308
01:04:20.466 --> 01:04:24.000
I loved the black
irises that he had.

1309
01:04:24.000 --> 01:04:25.800
I thought that was fantastic.

1310
01:04:25.800 --> 01:04:29.433
So I said, we need to bring
that back for the third one.

1311
01:04:29.433 --> 01:04:34.433
So he now has these really
cool full sclera lenses

1312
01:04:35.866 --> 01:04:37.366
that have like these tiny
little pupils in the middle

1313
01:04:37.366 --> 01:04:38.466
and they're very bloodshot

1314
01:04:38.466 --> 01:04:40.500
and it makes him
look more demonic

1315
01:04:40.500 --> 01:04:41.733
and a little more frightening.

1316
01:04:41.733 --> 01:04:43.500
So, so that's, that's been cool.

1317
01:04:54.000 --> 01:04:57.000
So I think what really
separates er from every other

1318
01:04:57.000 --> 01:04:59.133
franchise is the gore.

1319
01:05:07.500 --> 01:05:10.200
Ah, we really have

1320
01:05:10.200 --> 01:05:12.533
to deliver the goods
in the Gore department.

1321
01:05:12.533 --> 01:05:16.000
So I make sure that every
movie now we have basically

1322
01:05:16.000 --> 01:05:19.233
horror, gory set pieces
that we have to keep trying

1323
01:05:19.233 --> 01:05:21.133
to one up ourselves
from the prior movie,

1324
01:05:21.133 --> 01:05:22.666
which is getting
a little difficult

1325
01:05:22.666 --> 01:05:24.833
because there's only so many
ways you can kill somebody.

1326
01:05:24.833 --> 01:05:26.800
But if you really watch
the difference between one

1327
01:05:26.800 --> 01:05:30.600
and two, number two, he
exposed much more to camera.

1328
01:05:30.600 --> 01:05:32.200
And on number three,

1329
01:05:32.200 --> 01:05:34.633
it's almost like you've taken
the filter off of the camera.

1330
01:05:34.633 --> 01:05:37.100
It's like everything
had to be seen.

1331
01:05:40.566 --> 01:05:42.500
There's a huge
element of why it's

1332
01:05:42.500 --> 01:05:44.233
so different from
other horror films.

1333
01:05:44.233 --> 01:05:46.900
They, they tend to pull back
these studio films, whereas

1334
01:05:46.900 --> 01:05:48.966
with Terrifi it's,
you know, balls

1335
01:05:48.966 --> 01:05:50.066
to the wall, we're gonna do it.

1336
01:05:53.833 --> 01:05:58.666
Ah, we're gonna figure it out.

1337
01:05:58.666 --> 01:06:00.900
Believe it or not, there
are limits that we will not,

1338
01:06:00.900 --> 01:06:03.166
you know, kind of go beyond.

1339
01:06:03.166 --> 01:06:06.033
So we try to do it
tastefully in many ways,

1340
01:06:06.033 --> 01:06:08.366
but that's really,
you know, kind of our,

1341
01:06:08.366 --> 01:06:10.900
our motto is just deliver
the goods, make it fun,

1342
01:06:10.900 --> 01:06:12.366
make it gory, make it exciting.

1343
01:06:13.633 --> 01:06:15.166
I don't even think about it.

1344
01:06:15.166 --> 01:06:16.866
Like Damien has picked the
head up, I picked the head up.

1345
01:06:16.866 --> 01:06:18.100
You know, I'm not even
thinking where did

1346
01:06:18.100 --> 01:06:19.200
the head come from?

1347
01:06:19.200 --> 01:06:20.433
And it takes a lot of care

1348
01:06:20.433 --> 01:06:21.733
because you're also working

1349
01:06:21.733 --> 01:06:23.900
with other individuals
in very physical scenes.

1350
01:06:23.900 --> 01:06:26.000
So you really have
to be present.

1351
01:06:26.000 --> 01:06:28.700
There's scenes with, like
I said, Chris Jericho who

1352
01:06:28.700 --> 01:06:30.933
we're both checking in
on each other constantly.

1353
01:06:30.933 --> 01:06:34.133
'cause it's technical, but
you're also trying to make sure

1354
01:06:34.133 --> 01:06:35.200
that that person is safe.

1355
01:06:36.666 --> 01:06:38.733
Growing up as a makeup
effects artist, I had

1356
01:06:38.733 --> 01:06:40.566
that skill set in my back pocket

1357
01:06:40.566 --> 01:06:41.900
and I can do all these effects

1358
01:06:41.900 --> 01:06:44.200
for virtually nothing
other than the expense

1359
01:06:44.200 --> 01:06:45.566
of the materials.

1360
01:06:45.566 --> 01:06:47.000
So I said I need

1361
01:06:47.000 --> 01:06:49.400
to put things in this
movie since it's a slasher

1362
01:06:49.400 --> 01:06:50.733
that I've never seen before.

1363
01:06:50.733 --> 01:06:52.300
And I've seen a lot
of slasher films

1364
01:06:54.866 --> 01:06:57.066
Like it's nothing
safe about it.

1365
01:06:57.066 --> 01:07:00.400
It's basically whatever
someone is scared to do

1366
01:07:00.400 --> 01:07:03.066
or doesn't want to do
or is just afraid to do

1367
01:07:03.066 --> 01:07:06.100
for whatever reason, is
something we kind of need to do.

1368
01:07:06.100 --> 01:07:08.500
I started just
researching, you know,

1369
01:07:08.500 --> 01:07:10.666
maybe torture methods
that I'd never heard of.

1370
01:07:10.666 --> 01:07:12.533
I mean just going to
some dark places trying

1371
01:07:12.533 --> 01:07:13.833
to get some inspiration.

1372
01:07:13.833 --> 01:07:17.166
And I came across this
medieval torture method

1373
01:07:17.166 --> 01:07:19.900
of hanging people upside
down by their ankles

1374
01:07:19.900 --> 01:07:23.733
and cutting them in half with
a giant hacksaw. Who's that?

1375
01:07:23.733 --> 01:07:25.466
- Dave?
- Hey

1376
01:07:25.466 --> 01:07:27.500
Dave, Jesus Christ.

1377
01:07:27.500 --> 01:07:30.100
And I said, if I can do
that to somebody in a film

1378
01:07:30.100 --> 01:07:33.566
and show every piece of
that, don't shy away from it.

1379
01:07:33.566 --> 01:07:35.066
I said, I've never seen that.

1380
01:07:35.066 --> 01:07:37.533
I think that'll get people
talking only intestine splatting

1381
01:07:37.533 --> 01:07:40.000
on the ground somewhere else,
obviously. No, not right

1382
01:07:40.000 --> 01:07:41.533
Here.

1383
01:07:41.533 --> 01:07:42.966
Well you can, well now we
gotta go into the second kil

1384
01:07:42.966 --> 01:07:44.266
and have the stroke get bleached

1385
01:07:44.266 --> 01:07:46.466
and salt thrown on it,
a skull ripped open.

1386
01:07:46.466 --> 01:07:48.400
And then the third one,
without getting any spoilers,

1387
01:07:48.400 --> 01:07:50.166
there's another huge, huge kill

1388
01:07:50.166 --> 01:07:51.633
that I think fans are
gonna really enjoy.

1389
01:07:55.300 --> 01:07:58.533
Of course there's the
infamous hacksaw scene that was,

1390
01:07:58.533 --> 01:08:02.366
that was a pretty
brutal scene to film,

1391
01:08:02.366 --> 01:08:04.033
both physically

1392
01:08:04.033 --> 01:08:07.566
and mentally, I
guess, especially for Catherine more than me

1393
01:08:07.566 --> 01:08:11.633
because it was 20
degrees around that night

1394
01:08:11.633 --> 01:08:13.666
and there was no
heat in that room.

1395
01:08:13.666 --> 01:08:18.000
But the thing with art is
sort of taking traditional kills

1396
01:08:18.000 --> 01:08:19.966
that aren't necessarily flashy,

1397
01:08:19.966 --> 01:08:23.300
but then trying to do it
in a, in a unique way.

1398
01:08:23.300 --> 01:08:25.666
Or when you see art
put his spin on it,

1399
01:08:25.666 --> 01:08:26.900
that's what makes it fresh.

1400
01:08:31.200 --> 01:08:34.066
So it could be as simple as
just him having a butcher knife,

1401
01:08:34.066 --> 01:08:37.633
but how would he kill
somebody differently than say,

1402
01:08:37.633 --> 01:08:39.200
you know, Michael
Myers would kill

1403
01:08:39.200 --> 01:08:40.600
somebody with a butcher knife.

1404
01:08:40.600 --> 01:08:42.600
I mean that's always the
challenge. That's the game.

1405
01:08:42.600 --> 01:08:44.866
I like to, I like to play

1406
01:08:44.866 --> 01:08:45.866
As a real knife.

1407
01:08:45.866 --> 01:08:47.400
I have built the blade,

1408
01:08:47.400 --> 01:08:50.066
but it's still a thin piece
of metal that can poke you.

1409
01:08:50.066 --> 01:08:51.433
No one will touch it.
But Dave, he's about

1410
01:08:51.433 --> 01:08:52.966
to place on the table.

1411
01:08:52.966 --> 01:08:55.033
Then I'll take it and make
it perfectly safe for people.

1412
01:08:55.033 --> 01:08:58.100
There's no bars
keeping us held back from

1413
01:08:58.100 --> 01:09:00.100
what we want to do.

1414
01:09:00.100 --> 01:09:03.566
If anything, what we found
along the way of working

1415
01:09:03.566 --> 01:09:06.300
with Damien is it
was never enough.

1416
01:09:06.300 --> 01:09:09.933
And that really, that
was, that was my, my

1417
01:09:09.933 --> 01:09:12.500
my training wheels that I
had to, I had to get used

1418
01:09:12.500 --> 01:09:14.433
to very quickly
and then tear off.

1419
01:09:15.266 --> 01:09:16.766
He's a nice guy.

1420
01:09:16.766 --> 01:09:19.600
Like the people who scare
us the most are like

1421
01:09:19.600 --> 01:09:21.433
the nicest guys. Evidently

1422
01:09:21.433 --> 01:09:23.866
Each film we tried to
make one step up, even

1423
01:09:23.866 --> 01:09:25.366
with the kill scenes.

1424
01:09:25.366 --> 01:09:27.933
I think that was the most
important thing for us is to get

1425
01:09:27.933 --> 01:09:30.600
that type of story out
there to everybody else

1426
01:09:30.600 --> 01:09:32.133
because you have to,

1427
01:09:32.133 --> 01:09:33.200
you don't wanna just stay at the

1428
01:09:33.200 --> 01:09:34.500
same plane with Terrifi fire.

1429
01:09:34.500 --> 01:09:36.300
You always gotta up
the kills up the gore.

1430
01:09:36.300 --> 01:09:37.833
And that's what we, I think
we did with the third one.

1431
01:09:48.900 --> 01:09:52.500
Fans are gonna be very, very
excited about the Gore aspect

1432
01:09:52.500 --> 01:09:57.066
and I feel like Arthur Clown
just went all out Once again.

1433
01:09:57.066 --> 01:09:58.400
Damien went all out.

1434
01:09:58.400 --> 01:10:00.666
It's gonna be a, a brutal,

1435
01:10:00.666 --> 01:10:04.966
a brutal horror Christmas.
See what you guys are

1436
01:10:04.966 --> 01:10:05.966
Doing.

1437
01:10:26.900 --> 01:10:29.566
I got here on break
time unfortunately.

1438
01:10:32.266 --> 01:10:35.533
Who is this? Santa?
He's scaring my kid.

1439
01:10:35.533 --> 01:10:38.433
- Yeah, he's scaring me
- Too. Hey

1440
01:10:38.433 --> 01:10:40.900
Santa's handing out
prisons, the Kills

1441
01:10:40.900 --> 01:10:44.600
and the practical effects are
just so much bigger batter

1442
01:10:44.600 --> 01:10:47.300
and bloodier this
time, which is hard

1443
01:10:47.300 --> 01:10:49.133
to imagine if you
haven't seen it

1444
01:10:49.133 --> 01:10:53.066
because the second one was
all of those things already.

1445
01:11:03.433 --> 01:11:06.566
We wanna make Terra Fire
three have the best special

1446
01:11:06.566 --> 01:11:09.200
effects, the best
Gore. Damien really

1447
01:11:09.200 --> 01:11:12.366
Has like changed a lot
of the changed the game

1448
01:11:12.366 --> 01:11:15.000
That I think Damien takes
that as a personal challenge.

1449
01:11:16.933 --> 01:11:18.800
I wanted people to
have a fun experience

1450
01:11:18.800 --> 01:11:22.033
with these movies, but I
also love the graphic kills.

1451
01:11:22.033 --> 01:11:24.500
I mean, I grew up
idolizing Tom Sini

1452
01:11:24.500 --> 01:11:27.900
and idolizing special makeup
effects, especially Gore.

1453
01:11:27.900 --> 01:11:31.000
So I knew if we were gonna
push the limits that far

1454
01:11:31.000 --> 01:11:34.466
and really kind of make the
audience a little, you know,

1455
01:11:34.466 --> 01:11:37.333
uneasy that we were gonna have
to wink at them at some point

1456
01:11:37.333 --> 01:11:38.666
and just, you know,
make them feel like,

1457
01:11:38.666 --> 01:11:39.700
all right, this is okay.

1458
01:11:43.000 --> 01:11:45.266
This movie is a
practical effects movie.

1459
01:11:45.266 --> 01:11:47.300
It's a Gore movie,
it's an effects movie.

1460
01:11:47.300 --> 01:11:49.500
And we know that's
where Damien thrives.

1461
01:11:49.500 --> 01:11:52.533
That's where the fan base
really, you know, comes

1462
01:11:52.533 --> 01:11:53.933
what they come out to see.

1463
01:11:53.933 --> 01:11:55.966
So that was number one
for us to make sure

1464
01:11:55.966 --> 01:11:57.300
that we delivered that.

1465
01:11:58.666 --> 01:12:00.200
- Who's nearby, what
- Do you need?

1466
01:12:00.200 --> 01:12:02.600
We had a lot of professionals
that that handled this.

1467
01:12:02.600 --> 01:12:05.166
Heather Ryan, of course
Damien stepped in.

1468
01:12:05.166 --> 01:12:06.800
We had Alana on set.

1469
01:12:06.800 --> 01:12:09.466
So we had a lot of
people that came in

1470
01:12:09.466 --> 01:12:13.200
and filled the

1471
01:12:13.200 --> 01:12:14.500
void that me and Damien

1472
01:12:14.500 --> 01:12:15.500
Left.

1473
01:12:19.433 --> 01:12:22.000
As soon as we knew what the
number was for the effects of

1474
01:12:22.000 --> 01:12:23.533
what we wanted to
do, then everything

1475
01:12:23.533 --> 01:12:25.200
else kind of fell into place's.

1476
01:12:25.200 --> 01:12:26.533
A lot of preparation

1477
01:12:26.533 --> 01:12:28.500
and making sure you have
all the necessary things

1478
01:12:28.500 --> 01:12:29.966
to make the kill happen

1479
01:12:29.966 --> 01:12:31.933
and then get everybody
on the same page so

1480
01:12:31.933 --> 01:12:33.333
that it takes into
a timely matter.

1481
01:12:48.966 --> 01:12:52.400
One of the, one of the
more interesting sides of

1482
01:12:52.400 --> 01:12:55.700
of filming was seeing how
David Arthur the Clown,

1483
01:12:55.700 --> 01:13:00.700
actually reacts to some of the
effects in Terror Fire three.

1484
01:13:02.166 --> 01:13:05.100
Let's go ahead and address
the big rumor that was going

1485
01:13:05.100 --> 01:13:07.833
around that, you know,
I almost puked on set.

1486
01:13:14.100 --> 01:13:16.600
That is true. And it's, it's,

1487
01:13:16.600 --> 01:13:18.466
it's at the climax of the film.

1488
01:13:18.466 --> 01:13:20.933
It's one of the big kills
that we have in the movie

1489
01:13:20.933 --> 01:13:22.933
and it grossed me out and,

1490
01:13:22.933 --> 01:13:26.933
and my thing is, I
can't stand puke.

1491
01:13:26.933 --> 01:13:30.800
And we had that in the
scene and I'm like, oh no.

1492
01:13:41.366 --> 01:13:42.766
And I actually got
a kick outta that

1493
01:13:42.766 --> 01:13:44.433
'cause David was already
feeling sick from the scene

1494
01:13:44.433 --> 01:13:46.000
and there were rats around and,

1495
01:13:47.200 --> 01:13:49.066
and then I just casually
was eating corn nuts

1496
01:13:49.066 --> 01:13:52.733
and Dave got really sick
and I just enjoyed that.

1497
01:13:52.733 --> 01:13:54.500
I love torturing Dave.

1498
01:13:54.500 --> 01:13:58.966
I'll grab some miracles. So
we had the use of fake vomit.

1499
01:13:58.966 --> 01:14:00.533
Obviously our art department

1500
01:14:00.533 --> 01:14:03.900
and our effects team
did a great job creating

1501
01:14:04.800 --> 01:14:07.333
this fake white looking vomit.

1502
01:14:07.333 --> 01:14:10.633
It was really gross.
And Dave couldn't even,

1503
01:14:10.633 --> 01:14:14.500
Dave couldn't even look at
the, at the, at the gag at at

1504
01:14:14.500 --> 01:14:18.933
what was happening because
he's very anti vomit.

1505
01:14:18.933 --> 01:14:21.366
Thankfully everyone
gets it, understands it

1506
01:14:21.366 --> 01:14:22.900
and enjoys puking and vomiting.

1507
01:14:22.900 --> 01:14:25.433
So that's a good thing.
And they were using this

1508
01:14:25.433 --> 01:14:29.766
Nasty soup concoction
and they had put starch

1509
01:14:29.766 --> 01:14:32.066
and everything, so the
smell was horrible.

1510
01:14:32.066 --> 01:14:34.133
And then the look
of it is horrible.

1511
01:14:34.133 --> 01:14:36.000
So I'm actually sitting
there, you know, having

1512
01:14:36.000 --> 01:14:39.233
to do the scene and
I'm like, like when,

1513
01:14:39.233 --> 01:14:42.200
when I didn't have my face in
frame, I'm just looking away

1514
01:14:43.233 --> 01:14:44.800
and it's like, I
can't look at this

1515
01:14:44.800 --> 01:14:47.733
and this thing just
projectile vomit.

1516
01:14:47.733 --> 01:14:50.833
The minute that throw
up goes into that tube,

1517
01:14:50.833 --> 01:14:51.966
he, he turns away.

1518
01:14:51.966 --> 01:14:53.200
He is like, I can't
do that. That's

1519
01:14:53.200 --> 01:14:54.666
just, he can't even look at it.

1520
01:14:54.666 --> 01:14:56.500
Can't smell it.
Like he, he was out.

1521
01:14:56.500 --> 01:14:58.033
So that was really funny.

1522
01:14:58.033 --> 01:15:01.966
This murderous clown
who's done terrible things

1523
01:15:02.866 --> 01:15:05.800
to people is afraid of vomit.

1524
01:15:05.800 --> 01:15:08.033
So that was, that
was, that was true.

1525
01:15:08.033 --> 01:15:10.866
I almost puked but I, I
held it, I held it together.

1526
01:15:10.866 --> 01:15:12.566
I held it together. I
was proud of myself.

1527
01:15:12.566 --> 01:15:15.700
But that's, I can, I can handle
all the blood and the guts

1528
01:15:15.700 --> 01:15:17.333
and the feces, all
that kind of stuff.

1529
01:15:17.333 --> 01:15:18.700
That doesn't bother me.

1530
01:15:18.700 --> 01:15:20.766
I can, I can watch
all that kind of stuff

1531
01:15:20.766 --> 01:15:23.700
and eat a hamburger and
be fine, but puke, nope.

1532
01:15:25.466 --> 01:15:28.700
There was even a gag where
Sienna takes out the sword

1533
01:15:28.700 --> 01:15:30.900
and hits art the clown with it.

1534
01:15:30.900 --> 01:15:32.866
Or I guess I think she
slices his throat with it

1535
01:15:32.866 --> 01:15:35.700
and then she slices herself
out of the chair and

1536
01:15:35.700 --> 01:15:38.800
because like it
was sticking to my,

1537
01:15:38.800 --> 01:15:40.566
the sword was
sticking to my hand.

1538
01:15:40.566 --> 01:15:42.766
I had to let go of
it and grab it again

1539
01:15:42.766 --> 01:15:44.433
and I was like praying
that I'd grab it

1540
01:15:44.433 --> 01:15:47.066
'cause I had to flip it
in the air and it worked.

1541
01:15:47.066 --> 01:15:48.333
Thank God, I dunno
how it worked.

1542
01:15:48.333 --> 01:15:50.566
I think my delirium took over

1543
01:15:50.566 --> 01:15:52.266
and it ended up
looking very cool.

1544
01:15:52.266 --> 01:15:54.000
But it was just
because Damien likes

1545
01:15:54.000 --> 01:15:55.466
to use this sticky blood

1546
01:15:55.466 --> 01:15:56.633
and he, I think
he just likes his

1547
01:15:56.633 --> 01:15:57.766
actors to be uncomfortable.

1548
01:16:07.133 --> 01:16:07.766
He will be like it

1549
01:16:16.500 --> 01:16:17.333
best gift ever.

1550
01:16:21.300 --> 01:16:24.266
To see that level of
quality put into the things

1551
01:16:24.266 --> 01:16:27.200
that I wrote on the page has
been, you know, it's like,

1552
01:16:27.200 --> 01:16:29.200
that's like a childhood
dream come true.

1553
01:16:30.966 --> 01:16:33.366
I wanna know what it's
like to be in the presence of

1554
01:16:33.366 --> 01:16:35.466
that kind of evil.

1555
01:16:35.466 --> 01:16:37.600
I feel like fans are
gonna be definitely,

1556
01:16:37.600 --> 01:16:40.233
it's gonna meet their
expectations for sure.

1557
01:16:40.233 --> 01:16:41.966
Art the Clown is back

1558
01:16:44.633 --> 01:16:47.233
Looking forward to the
best Christmas ever filled

1559
01:16:47.233 --> 01:16:49.300
with fun, smiles and laughter.

1560
01:16:50.866 --> 01:16:52.400
Dave? Laughing, laughing. Dave

1561
01:16:56.566 --> 01:16:58.000
Laughingly.

1562
01:16:58.000 --> 01:17:00.300
All right. I think the
audience can expect a movie

1563
01:17:00.300 --> 01:17:02.600
that exceeds expectations as far

1564
01:17:02.600 --> 01:17:06.266
as quality goes comparatively
to Terra Fire Two, just

1565
01:17:06.266 --> 01:17:08.000
because we have a bigger budget.

1566
01:17:08.000 --> 01:17:10.633
I think the fans are really
appreciate Terror Fire Three,

1567
01:17:10.633 --> 01:17:13.833
we pushed the boundaries,
we worked so hard

1568
01:17:13.833 --> 01:17:15.500
and it, I think
it shows on screen

1569
01:17:15.500 --> 01:17:19.133
and I think it's just gonna
help build the franchise.

1570
01:17:19.133 --> 01:17:21.800
Everything's
bigger, everything has changed a little bit.

1571
01:17:21.800 --> 01:17:24.366
I want them, I want people to
smile. I want them to laugh.

1572
01:17:24.366 --> 01:17:25.866
I want them to enjoy themselves.

1573
01:17:25.866 --> 01:17:29.500
I mean life is so, so hard
and, and we get to do that.

1574
01:17:29.500 --> 01:17:31.200
I hope that Terror Fire

1575
01:17:31.200 --> 01:17:33.900
and a lot of other indies that
have had this type of success

1576
01:17:33.900 --> 01:17:38.666
show to, you know, even
bigger suits with more money

1577
01:17:38.666 --> 01:17:40.766
that, you know, take
a chance, take a risk.

1578
01:17:40.766 --> 01:17:43.233
I wanna see how crazy
this thing is and they laugh

1579
01:17:43.233 --> 01:17:45.966
or they scream or they
cry, whatever it is.

1580
01:17:45.966 --> 01:17:48.366
If it entertained you
in any sort of way,

1581
01:17:48.366 --> 01:17:50.766
that puts a smile on
the filmmaker's face.

1582
01:17:50.766 --> 01:17:53.000
So that's what I would like
to encourage everybody.

1583
01:17:53.000 --> 01:17:54.333
If you guys are gonna
go see this movie,

1584
01:17:54.333 --> 01:17:56.866
just go into it and
have a good time.

1585
01:17:56.866 --> 01:17:58.533
Things are gonna change.

1586
01:18:07.900 --> 01:18:12.200
I hope the audience enjoys
it. I'm pretty sure they will.

1587
01:18:12.200 --> 01:18:15.000
I'm confident with what we shot.

1588
01:18:15.000 --> 01:18:18.433
They're gonna really enjoy
it. It's all about the fans.

1589
01:18:19.533 --> 01:18:24.100
Oh, I can't walk.
I thought why?

1590
01:18:24.100 --> 01:18:26.100
- Alright,
- Fuck everything else.

1591
01:18:26.100 --> 01:18:28.266
I just hope people have a
good time watching Terra Fire

1592
01:18:28.266 --> 01:18:31.566
three and I hope
they see that we are,

1593
01:18:31.566 --> 01:18:34.400
we've all worked very
hard to deliver a fun

1594
01:18:34.400 --> 01:18:38.300
and exciting film for them and
we don't wanna let them down.

1595
01:18:38.300 --> 01:18:39.933
Cory, get back over here.

1596
01:18:39.933 --> 01:18:42.300
Back in line Kids Time
for the Real Santa.

1597
01:18:42.300 --> 01:18:44.600
I wonder what I got Corey.

1598
01:18:58.533 --> 01:19:01.100
My guess is that this
film's gonna come out

1599
01:19:01.100 --> 01:19:05.633
and it's sort of going to
be this shocking surprise

1600
01:19:05.633 --> 01:19:07.133
to the studios.

1601
01:19:07.133 --> 01:19:09.966
Why I think people will
love this movie, especially

1602
01:19:09.966 --> 01:19:13.700
as you see you, you know, it's
not just David back as art,

1603
01:19:13.700 --> 01:19:16.766
but Lauren is back and
Elliot is back and,

1604
01:19:16.766 --> 01:19:19.733
and we're watching their
characters five years later,

1605
01:19:19.733 --> 01:19:21.000
they're grown up a little more

1606
01:19:21.000 --> 01:19:23.233
and they've experienced
this other thing.

1607
01:19:23.233 --> 01:19:26.300
And I think that the
audience is gonna want to see

1608
01:19:26.300 --> 01:19:28.100
where their story goes.

1609
01:19:28.100 --> 01:19:29.900
If the demon enters
this world in the flesh,

1610
01:19:29.900 --> 01:19:31.266
a counterpart must be appointed

1611
01:19:31.266 --> 01:19:33.066
to stop it from
becoming too powerful.

1612
01:19:33.066 --> 01:19:36.000
It's you Sienna, as
long you're alive,

1613
01:19:36.000 --> 01:19:37.333
they're vulnerable
and they know it.

1614
01:19:39.200 --> 01:19:40.400
That's why Daddy
created the Sword.

1615
01:19:40.400 --> 01:19:42.366
Whoever chose me
was guiding him.

1616
01:19:42.366 --> 01:19:44.866
He was preparing me for this.

1617
01:19:44.866 --> 01:19:47.366
I think they're gonna be
blown away by the Kills.

1618
01:19:47.366 --> 01:19:50.700
And just the fact that
the movie itself looks

1619
01:19:50.700 --> 01:19:54.200
significantly better
than, than the first one.

1620
01:19:54.200 --> 01:19:56.033
And, and then also
the second one,

1621
01:19:59.933 --> 01:20:01.700
She's always like in a corner.

1622
01:20:03.900 --> 01:20:07.900
It's really a bigger movie
and it story, it's great too.

1623
01:20:07.900 --> 01:20:10.966
I mean it really guess, I think,

1624
01:20:10.966 --> 01:20:13.033
I think fans are gonna
really appreciate it.

1625
01:20:13.033 --> 01:20:17.566
I think this is one
hell of a finale for

1626
01:20:18.766 --> 01:20:20.400
at least not finale for
the franchise of course,

1627
01:20:20.400 --> 01:20:21.866
but like finale for the film.

1628
01:20:21.866 --> 01:20:26.700
It's, it's, it's a
scene. It is a scene.

1629
01:20:26.700 --> 01:20:31.700
It's a brutal scene. Very
emotionally draining scene.

1630
01:20:33.100 --> 01:20:36.166
I got to do my own fight
scene with Art The Clown.

1631
01:20:36.166 --> 01:20:38.900
It wasn't performed, most of
it wasn't performed by Dave,

1632
01:20:38.900 --> 01:20:40.100
it was performed by
a stunt performer,

1633
01:20:40.100 --> 01:20:41.600
Bobby, who was incredible.

1634
01:20:41.600 --> 01:20:44.333
And it was choreographed
by Drew, who was our stunt

1635
01:20:45.866 --> 01:20:47.933
coordinator and we've worked
with him in Terrifi Fire too.

1636
01:20:47.933 --> 01:20:51.400
He's phenomenal. And
that was, I mean, first

1637
01:20:51.400 --> 01:20:53.233
of all, very fun

1638
01:20:53.233 --> 01:20:56.866
Seeing her like struggling
and screaming for her life

1639
01:20:56.866 --> 01:20:59.966
and battling Arthur the
Clown Sword versus Chainsaw.

1640
01:20:59.966 --> 01:21:01.800
It's a really epic scene.

1641
01:21:01.800 --> 01:21:03.733
And watching,

1642
01:21:03.733 --> 01:21:07.966
just watching her totally
enveloped by this character.

1643
01:21:07.966 --> 01:21:11.200
It's she, she blows the roof
off of the, of the scene.

1644
01:21:11.200 --> 01:21:12.900
I can't wait for
people to see that.

1645
01:21:23.733 --> 01:21:27.500
I really hope that everyone
enjoys like the storyline

1646
01:21:27.500 --> 01:21:29.233
as well as the effects.

1647
01:21:29.233 --> 01:21:32.700
All of it is, you know, just,
there's so much hard work

1648
01:21:32.700 --> 01:21:36.100
and so much detail into
every ounce of the film.

1649
01:21:36.100 --> 01:21:38.466
There's a lot of
underlying themes involved

1650
01:21:38.466 --> 01:21:41.500
and which allows a continuation

1651
01:21:41.500 --> 01:21:43.166
of the story for years to come.

1652
01:21:43.166 --> 01:21:46.300
So we're excited and we
hope the fans are too.

1653
01:21:54.566 --> 01:21:58.033
I I hope they,
they take away the

1654
01:21:59.233 --> 01:22:02.400
joy that I

1655
01:22:02.400 --> 01:22:06.966
as a child would get
from watching the icons

1656
01:22:06.966 --> 01:22:08.900
that came before.

1657
01:22:08.900 --> 01:22:12.600
Like, I, I want them to
have that same excitement

1658
01:22:12.600 --> 01:22:16.500
as we did growing up watching
Freddy Krueger and Jason

1659
01:22:16.500 --> 01:22:18.200
and Michael Myers and Chucky,

1660
01:22:18.200 --> 01:22:21.900
because I feel like that's
kind of been lost in the past

1661
01:22:21.900 --> 01:22:23.366
Decade or so.

1662
01:22:23.366 --> 01:22:25.800
If they have half as much
fun as we had making this

1663
01:22:25.800 --> 01:22:28.400
or making the second one
even just being together

1664
01:22:28.400 --> 01:22:31.000
and getting the ledger of
working with this team,

1665
01:22:32.100 --> 01:22:33.266
if they could have that much

1666
01:22:33.266 --> 01:22:34.600
fun, then we did something right

1667
01:22:38.733 --> 01:22:41.366
Before I started being
a guest at conventions.

1668
01:22:41.366 --> 01:22:46.366
I used to frequent
conventions as a fan

1669
01:22:47.233 --> 01:22:48.333
and I always wanted to be on

1670
01:22:48.333 --> 01:22:49.800
that other side
of it all one day.

1671
01:22:49.800 --> 01:22:51.200
That was always a goal of mine.

1672
01:22:51.200 --> 01:22:53.866
I wanted to be, I wanted
to be on a panel one day.

1673
01:22:55.033 --> 01:22:56.800
It, it really is
a dream come true.

1674
01:22:56.800 --> 01:22:58.600
It's the greatest
feeling in the world.

1675
01:22:59.800 --> 01:23:02.900
It, it really, it
really sinks in.

1676
01:23:02.900 --> 01:23:07.533
When, when I'm at a convention
and someone comes up to me

1677
01:23:07.533 --> 01:23:10.533
and they just express how
much the character means

1678
01:23:10.533 --> 01:23:12.966
to them on levels
that are unimaginable.

1679
01:23:12.966 --> 01:23:16.733
Like people will, they, you
know, they've met their wives

1680
01:23:16.733 --> 01:23:18.633
or husbands, they've
bonded over this film

1681
01:23:18.633 --> 01:23:19.700
and then they've gotten married.

1682
01:23:20.566 --> 01:23:22.566
I love meeting people.

1683
01:23:22.566 --> 01:23:25.000
I love the support for
Tar Fire, especially

1684
01:23:25.000 --> 01:23:27.966
because I'm a fan
of horror myself

1685
01:23:27.966 --> 01:23:29.700
and I grew up going
to horror conventions

1686
01:23:29.700 --> 01:23:30.733
and now I'm signing at them.

1687
01:23:33.200 --> 01:23:35.500
They showed
tattoos all the time.

1688
01:23:35.500 --> 01:23:37.066
I mean, when you're
putting, you know,

1689
01:23:37.066 --> 01:23:40.100
permanent ink into your body,
you know, with my character

1690
01:23:40.100 --> 01:23:44.300
that's the greatest
honor imaginable.

1691
01:23:44.300 --> 01:23:48.933
So this little 7-year-old
Damien especially was just

1692
01:23:48.933 --> 01:23:53.066
screaming with joy that, you
know, that it kind of paid off,

1693
01:23:53.066 --> 01:23:58.000
especially for my mother who
I tortured my entire life.

1694
01:23:58.000 --> 01:24:01.233
A few of us had
done the convention circuit, met fans and,

1695
01:24:01.233 --> 01:24:03.333
and started to really
understand, oh,

1696
01:24:03.333 --> 01:24:05.133
this is is really
affecting people.

1697
01:24:06.533 --> 01:24:09.966
But then two years
ago it went viral.

1698
01:24:09.966 --> 01:24:14.700
I was really excited to start
participating in conventions

1699
01:24:14.700 --> 01:24:17.066
because I, I was
excited to meet people.

1700
01:24:17.066 --> 01:24:19.900
I, I love horror and
I love spooky things.

1701
01:24:19.900 --> 01:24:21.900
So I knew I was going
to horror conventions.

1702
01:24:21.900 --> 01:24:25.666
I knew that I would get to
visit these really cool tables

1703
01:24:25.666 --> 01:24:28.200
with really interesting
artists and their work.

1704
01:24:28.200 --> 01:24:31.300
If a fan comes over to
me, I, I talk, I'll talk

1705
01:24:31.300 --> 01:24:33.500
for 20 minutes, I'll
talk for an hour.

1706
01:24:33.500 --> 01:24:34.900
Same thing with Damien.

1707
01:24:34.900 --> 01:24:37.900
Anybody ever cosplay
is one of my characters

1708
01:24:38.766 --> 01:24:41.200
that would just make me so happy

1709
01:24:41.200 --> 01:24:45.866
because I know as a cast
player what that means.

1710
01:24:45.866 --> 01:24:49.300
Because that's, you, you
love that character so much

1711
01:24:49.300 --> 01:24:52.166
that you're like, I I
want to go out in public

1712
01:24:52.166 --> 01:24:55.166
and dresses him I
and act like him

1713
01:24:55.166 --> 01:24:57.800
because that's why I really
enjoy about these cos players.

1714
01:24:57.800 --> 01:25:01.266
They, they commit, they
commit to the character.

1715
01:25:01.266 --> 01:25:02.533
They just don't
come up to me, Hey

1716
01:25:02.533 --> 01:25:04.433
and man, how are you
doing and all that.

1717
01:25:04.433 --> 01:25:06.733
They come up to me as art

1718
01:25:06.733 --> 01:25:10.633
and do all the pantomime
and play around.

1719
01:25:10.633 --> 01:25:13.300
And I'm like, I
love to see that.

1720
01:25:13.300 --> 01:25:16.600
But I didn't realize how many

1721
01:25:16.600 --> 01:25:19.266
fans loved Sienna

1722
01:25:19.266 --> 01:25:22.500
and that they did in Indeed
find strength in her story.

1723
01:25:22.500 --> 01:25:24.900
I, I've had so many
conversations with

1724
01:25:24.900 --> 01:25:28.066
so many wonderful people who
have come up to me like crying

1725
01:25:28.066 --> 01:25:31.266
and shaking that they've had
similar experiences to Sienna.

1726
01:25:31.266 --> 01:25:34.466
They've lost a family
member, sometimes a parent

1727
01:25:34.466 --> 01:25:35.700
who they loved very much

1728
01:25:35.700 --> 01:25:37.833
and they found strength
in Sienna's story

1729
01:25:37.833 --> 01:25:41.200
and overcoming whatever
hardships in their own life.

1730
01:25:49.766 --> 01:25:51.233
I'm so thankful

1731
01:25:51.233 --> 01:25:54.800
for the horror community
being this awesome

1732
01:25:54.800 --> 01:25:58.000
and the success from Terra
Fire two in Terra Fire

1733
01:25:58.000 --> 01:25:59.466
Three.

1734
01:25:59.466 --> 01:26:02.733
It's all word of mouth
connecting with another human.

1735
01:26:02.733 --> 01:26:04.700
That's whole reason
I became an actor was

1736
01:26:04.700 --> 01:26:06.433
to help people feel less alone

1737
01:26:06.433 --> 01:26:08.000
because that's what television

1738
01:26:08.000 --> 01:26:09.533
and film did for me growing up.

1739
01:26:09.533 --> 01:26:12.166
It, it helped me have a better
understanding of the world

1740
01:26:12.166 --> 01:26:14.833
and it helped me
relate to stories

1741
01:26:14.833 --> 01:26:17.533
that were different than
mine and similar to mine.

1742
01:26:17.533 --> 01:26:20.800
We're all just feeling
really lucky and grateful

1743
01:26:20.800 --> 01:26:23.966
and especially grateful to the
fans and all the supporters

1744
01:26:23.966 --> 01:26:26.733
and all the people who
came in very early on

1745
01:26:26.733 --> 01:26:29.833
and believed in the film and
really went to bat for it.

1746
01:26:29.833 --> 01:26:33.600
So still, I don't think
I'll ever process it

1747
01:26:35.333 --> 01:26:37.166
When I see children dress as
art, first of all, I'm like,

1748
01:26:37.166 --> 01:26:39.833
first of all I'm like, your
parents let you see this.

1749
01:26:41.900 --> 01:26:44.000
But at the same, same
time it was like, yeah,

1750
01:26:44.000 --> 01:26:46.800
but when I was a kid we
were all dressing up like

1751
01:26:46.800 --> 01:26:50.733
Michael Myers and Jason Freddy
and Chucky for Halloween.

1752
01:26:50.733 --> 01:26:53.633
So to see children
now dressing up as art

1753
01:26:53.633 --> 01:26:56.200
or the Pale Girl for Halloween

1754
01:26:56.200 --> 01:27:00.700
or Sienna, that, that, I
think that's pretty cool

1755
01:27:00.700 --> 01:27:02.266
That I get to see firsthand

1756
01:27:02.266 --> 01:27:06.133
and hear firsthand from these
strangers from all over the

1757
01:27:06.133 --> 01:27:08.200
place that how Sienna

1758
01:27:08.200 --> 01:27:10.800
or just the film in general has

1759
01:27:10.800 --> 01:27:12.266
touched them and helped them.

1760
01:27:12.266 --> 01:27:15.400
And it, it really
invigorates me and,

1761
01:27:15.400 --> 01:27:17.500
and makes me excited
to make more work

1762
01:27:17.500 --> 01:27:19.300
because that's the dream.

1763
01:27:19.300 --> 01:27:20.833
It's the dream to
connect with others

1764
01:27:20.833 --> 01:27:23.233
and have my work
connect with others.

1765
01:27:23.233 --> 01:27:25.100
When I'm doing the conventions

1766
01:27:25.100 --> 01:27:29.600
and I do the photo ops, I
like to do the true art,

1767
01:27:29.600 --> 01:27:30.866
the clown experience
with people.

1768
01:27:30.866 --> 01:27:33.533
So the moment I
walk out of the room

1769
01:27:33.533 --> 01:27:36.566
where I'm doing my makeup,
I am in character is art.

1770
01:27:36.566 --> 01:27:39.266
So I, I am messing with people

1771
01:27:39.266 --> 01:27:41.600
and it's, I, I especially
love it when it's people not

1772
01:27:41.600 --> 01:27:43.066
necessarily there
for the convention.

1773
01:27:43.066 --> 01:27:44.900
They're just staying in
the hotel that I'm at

1774
01:27:52.066 --> 01:27:54.833
and just getting the
real reactions when people don't expect

1775
01:27:54.833 --> 01:27:56.300
they get in the
elevator with me.

1776
01:27:56.300 --> 01:27:58.166
I I had one time
just a cleaning lady

1777
01:27:58.166 --> 01:28:00.200
that got in the elevator
with me and she looks at me

1778
01:28:00.200 --> 01:28:02.800
and she just starts praying
to herself in like Spanish

1779
01:28:02.800 --> 01:28:06.366
and she, she had like,
hit a different floor

1780
01:28:06.366 --> 01:28:07.966
that she's gonna
get out and the door

1781
01:28:07.966 --> 01:28:09.366
just opens up another phone.

1782
01:28:09.366 --> 01:28:12.566
She's, no just me. I really
just, I love those type

1783
01:28:12.566 --> 01:28:15.533
of moments just to interact
with the public in that way.

1784
01:28:15.533 --> 01:28:18.766
You get some great moments,
everyone fall back,

1785
01:28:18.766 --> 01:28:19.833
repeat, fall back.

1786
01:28:24.033 --> 01:28:28.400
I think Art's Visual
aesthetic really is largely

1787
01:28:28.400 --> 01:28:30.233
responsible for the success.

1788
01:28:30.233 --> 01:28:32.400
I'm amazed at how
many people are into

1789
01:28:32.400 --> 01:28:33.933
It.

1790
01:28:33.933 --> 01:28:36.800
I I think the, the, what the
fans really enjoy about him

1791
01:28:36.800 --> 01:28:38.300
that, that I really
like to bring

1792
01:28:38.300 --> 01:28:40.166
to the character
is his playfulness.

1793
01:28:48.200 --> 01:28:50.200
I'm honored and
humbled to just be a part

1794
01:28:50.200 --> 01:28:51.533
of this great team
and to be a part

1795
01:28:51.533 --> 01:28:53.466
of this great franchise
and he's doing these

1796
01:28:53.466 --> 01:28:57.000
Horrible things, but at the
same time it's entertaining

1797
01:28:57.000 --> 01:28:58.500
for the audience as well.

1798
01:28:58.500 --> 01:29:01.700
And so I I think that also
helps us get away with a lot

1799
01:29:01.700 --> 01:29:03.933
of the things we
do in our films.

1800
01:29:03.933 --> 01:29:07.200
'cause if it it, it didn't
have any of that levity there,

1801
01:29:07.200 --> 01:29:09.000
I think people would
wanna slit their wrists.

1802
01:29:23.100 --> 01:29:27.333
- All right. Set. Are we
- Ready? Yep. And 3, 2, 1, 5.

1803
01:29:30.166 --> 01:29:32.566
I really don't know
what the future holds

1804
01:29:32.566 --> 01:29:34.766
or what's gonna, what
opportunity's gonna come,

1805
01:29:39.900 --> 01:29:44.433
but I do see potentially
just one more film in this

1806
01:29:44.433 --> 01:29:48.600
franchise where I would
have a satisfying story

1807
01:29:48.600 --> 01:29:51.300
that I could step back
and, and be proud of.

1808
01:29:51.300 --> 01:29:54.066
In my opinion.
Terra Fire is, we're,

1809
01:29:54.066 --> 01:29:58.866
we're at the beginning
of a nine film, you know,

1810
01:29:58.866 --> 01:30:02.633
I think they'll be doing
Terra Fire films when I'm 80.

1811
01:30:24.000 --> 01:30:25.666
You know, I would love
to see Damien's vision

1812
01:30:25.666 --> 01:30:27.200
through whatever that is.

1813
01:30:27.200 --> 01:30:30.300
Whether it's Terra Fire
Four or Terra Fire 14.

1814
01:30:30.300 --> 01:30:32.000
As long as he's there,
I'll I'll be there.

1815
01:30:32.000 --> 01:30:34.033
I mean, unless he wants me
to direct one, I'll do that.

1816
01:31:10.933 --> 01:31:12.433
Hey, we,

1817
01:31:12.433 --> 01:31:14.533
we definitely at least wanna
do one more film with art.

1818
01:31:14.533 --> 01:31:19.033
We, we, I I think just the
ending for part three sets some

1819
01:31:19.033 --> 01:31:20.400
of that up there for you.

1820
01:31:31.133 --> 01:31:35.933
I really got to see
Art The Clown grow

1821
01:31:35.933 --> 01:31:39.966
and just become just a

1822
01:31:39.966 --> 01:31:41.600
horror icon.

1823
01:31:41.600 --> 01:31:43.466
It's, it's quite
amazing, honestly.

1824
01:31:43.466 --> 01:31:45.300
And I feel privileged

1825
01:31:45.300 --> 01:31:48.066
to be alongside Damien
creating the visuals

1826
01:31:48.066 --> 01:31:50.900
and making magic with
him on the screen.

1827
01:31:52.366 --> 01:31:55.033
It's really been a great process
throughout all the years.

1828
01:31:55.033 --> 01:31:59.133
And just wanna
see where it goes.

1829
01:31:59.133 --> 01:32:01.700
I mean, we'll just keep bringing
it up further and further

1830
01:32:01.700 --> 01:32:03.266
and then see where
we can take it.

1831
01:32:11.633 --> 01:32:14.866
Bravo Independent
Cinema and Bravo.

1832
01:32:14.866 --> 01:32:18.266
With all respect for everybody
who make other movies,

1833
01:32:18.266 --> 01:32:20.800
it's nice when, when
the independents,

1834
01:32:20.800 --> 01:32:24.133
you know, win a
weekend. It's good.

1835
01:32:24.133 --> 01:32:25.500
Okay. And action.

1836
01:32:29.833 --> 01:32:31.466
I would love to
see an opportunity

1837
01:32:31.466 --> 01:32:32.900
to work with Damien again.

1838
01:32:32.900 --> 01:32:35.700
And, and I've had many
conversations with him about

1839
01:32:35.700 --> 01:32:37.233
what he does next.

1840
01:32:37.233 --> 01:32:41.733
Where he goes from here even
when this franchise is over

1841
01:32:41.733 --> 01:32:43.766
or he decides to put
down Art the Clown

1842
01:32:43.766 --> 01:32:45.200
and go on to do other things.

1843
01:32:45.200 --> 01:32:46.966
What's that look like?
What's, what's that picture

1844
01:32:46.966 --> 01:32:48.300
that's being painted for Damien?

1845
01:32:48.300 --> 01:32:50.000
Because, you know, he's sort

1846
01:32:50.000 --> 01:32:53.300
of being a sought out
director in the horror genre.

1847
01:33:07.100 --> 01:33:09.200
I think there's definitely
gonna be a terrifi of four.

1848
01:33:09.200 --> 01:33:13.200
And then after that, I hope it
continues to, to five and six

1849
01:33:13.200 --> 01:33:15.400
and see where, see where it goes

1850
01:33:15.400 --> 01:33:18.000
and what Damien can
do with Arthur Clown

1851
01:33:18.000 --> 01:33:20.833
and see how his,
his story develops.

1852
01:33:31.766 --> 01:33:35.500
I'm looking forward to
what else they come up with.

1853
01:33:35.500 --> 01:33:37.800
And I think it's Nons stoppable.

1854
01:33:37.800 --> 01:33:41.466
If they, if they want
it to continue, it will.

1855
01:33:41.466 --> 01:33:44.600
And of course the fans,
the fans want more.

1856
01:33:44.600 --> 01:33:46.333
The greatest gift
has been to work

1857
01:33:46.333 --> 01:33:48.966
with all these individuals and,

1858
01:33:48.966 --> 01:33:51.133
and to work with people who
actually consider themselves

1859
01:33:51.133 --> 01:33:53.800
artists and, and really give
everything that they have.

1860
01:33:55.166 --> 01:33:57.600
It exists. I feel very
lucky to have that.

1861
01:33:58.900 --> 01:34:00.600
'cause you don't always
get that in the industry.

1862
01:34:07.966 --> 01:34:10.333
Hey, I, I'm glad
you saw the movie,

1863
01:34:10.333 --> 01:34:12.000
I'm glad you enjoyed it

1864
01:34:12.000 --> 01:34:13.866
and, you know, stick around

1865
01:34:13.866 --> 01:34:18.400
for whatever great stuff
Damien has next up his

1866
01:34:18.400 --> 01:34:19.533
very bloody sleeve.

1867
01:34:32.366 --> 01:34:34.900
But that doesn't
mean if I come up

1868
01:34:34.900 --> 01:34:36.733
with an idea years
down the line,

1869
01:34:36.733 --> 01:34:39.100
or I think there's another way

1870
01:34:39.100 --> 01:34:41.200
to inject something
fresh into the franchise.

1871
01:34:41.200 --> 01:34:42.600
I mean, I'll totally do it.

1872
01:34:42.600 --> 01:34:43.900
I love this character

1873
01:34:43.900 --> 01:34:46.300
and seeing what antic
he comes up with.

1874
01:35:05.233 --> 01:35:06.800
I wanna see more about art.

1875
01:35:06.800 --> 01:35:09.066
I wanna see the rest
of his backstory.

1876
01:35:09.066 --> 01:35:10.566
If I'm 70 years old

1877
01:35:10.566 --> 01:35:13.166
and I can still play
him, I'll still play him.

1878
01:35:13.166 --> 01:35:15.100
I, I, I love this guy.

1879
01:35:15.100 --> 01:35:18.533
I think there's always new
things to find to do with him.

1880
01:35:18.533 --> 01:35:21.500
Action. I would love to take
like the Chucky route with him

1881
01:35:21.500 --> 01:35:25.566
where, you know, they keep
finding new, new ways to take

1882
01:35:25.566 --> 01:35:27.833
that franchise in
new directions.

1883
01:35:29.600 --> 01:35:30.933
Woo.

1884
01:35:33.333 --> 01:35:36.500
Ah, and I'm really excited

1885
01:35:36.500 --> 01:35:37.933
for the future of
this franchise.

1886
01:35:37.933 --> 01:35:40.633
So let's bring on
Terra Fire four Your

1887
01:35:40.633 --> 01:35:41.933
Eyes.

1888
01:35:41.933 --> 01:35:44.100
I do. It's a pretty cool
ride. Seeing it's fun.

1889
01:35:45.266 --> 01:35:46.833
Don't get into all
that Blood and gore.

1890
01:35:47.866 --> 01:35:49.333
I'm more of a romcom guy.

1891
01:35:51.100 --> 01:35:53.733
Frankenstein, that's a
good movie. A classic.

1892
01:35:55.066 --> 01:35:56.600
I love art. He's such a,

1893
01:35:57.666 --> 01:35:59.900
a fun little mischievous
little bastard.

1894
01:35:59.900 --> 01:36:03.200
And I, I want to keep playing
him for as long as possible.

1895
01:36:03.200 --> 01:36:06.700
So I, I hope people
enjoy what we're doing.

1896
01:36:06.700 --> 01:36:08.666
Save sake.

1897
01:36:10.066 --> 01:36:14.800
- Save,
- Save a soul from

1898
01:36:18.533 --> 01:36:20.900
Damien doesn't want
to cheat the audience.

1899
01:36:20.900 --> 01:36:22.433
And that's what makes
them special movies.

1900
01:36:46.100 --> 01:36:48.933
Never say never, never,
never, never, never.

1901
01:36:59.133 --> 01:36:59.333
Cut.

1902
01:37:04.900 --> 01:37:08.966
Cool. That's that.
Was that all right?

1903
01:37:08.966 --> 01:37:11.200
Was that fantastic?
Was it Oh good.
