      @@rrockomoj I said creepy, which to me is not exactly the same as scary, Art appearing even silly at times - given the circumstances - is less funny than unsettling (imo). When he starts attacking you, THAT'S scary lol. But he enjoys the pursuit of his victims, being able to affect/control their emotional state and generally prolong the anxiety, changing his behavior a little at a time until anxiety becomes uncertainty then fear.
      So I do see what you're saying, and agree - I just see it as only part of his "schtick."

    The difference between a mime and a silent clown is that the mime uses only his body to imitate, copy or represent something; the silent clown doesn't rely that much on the physical aspect, instead uses props. That's why my friend Arthur is just a clown.

    David Howard Thornton really wants to be Joker in James Gunn’s new DCU. And at first, I’m like OK, because he portrays Art in Terrifier. But if you watch his portrayal on UA-cam. Where he does a skit. He sounds just like Mark Hamill AND has the look and appeal that we need from a classic Joker. He’s scary, but he’s also flamboyant and looks like he’s wearing Nicholson‘s suit. Give it a watch. I completely am up for him taking on that role.

    My current theory is also that Art expresses himself through his kills--he literally views them as art and as something sacred and possibly even romantic, as he showed interest in Tara and had her sit front-and-center for Dawn's kill. This is why he has such a spiritual attraction to the faceless woman (can't remember her name but I think it's Victoria) because she was the only one of his victims that survived that appreciates his "art."

    I think Art was scariest in All Hallows Eve, in the final short that poor girl couldn't escape him, he just teleported everywhere. When he finally got her, he didn't even kill her, he gave her one of the worst fates in all of horror. It's not confirmed, but judging by the fact that he left her naked and the words he carved into her, it seems to be he also sexually assulted her, either before or after the mutilation.

    • @crypt5129
      @crypt5129 День тому

      I'd argue he's probably sadistic to the extent that he is out of a combination of those factors, although we don't know (and I don't want to know, I think it's better with his past is a mystery). His often very childlike behaviors even when not being directly watched and his inability to make noises with his mouth even when in extreme pain (he is entirely human in the first movie after all, nothing supernatural about him) makes me think he likely experienced some sort of trauma in his youth that halted his emotional development, leading to an unwillingness or inability to empathize with others and selfishness, existing only to entertain himself at the expense of others.
      Art seems to have disdain for humanity and the human experience (he is a clown after all, clowns are known for challenging the human experience through mockery), with this being obvious in the glee he takes in tormenting others and making a mockery of them and those they care about. A notable scene with the mashed potatoes scene in 2 where he sets up a family dinner purely to make a violent mockery of the whole practice, he takes joy in violating social norms, in particular here the mockery of traditional familial bonds (maybe I'm reading into this too much but he does seem to specifically enjoy breaking up families, idk, could mean something). All I'm saying is that you don't develop this disdain for others as the result of living a normal life, something happened imo
      Idk, I read his character as someone emotionally-underdeveloped and almost hollow, a monster who laughs to keep from realizing that there's nothing else inside of him, and so his killing spree in the first movie acts as a final middle finger to the world before he ends it all to avoid any consequences (he canonically didn't know he'd come back afterwards). Then his resurrection gave him the opportunity to distance himself from his humanity further (he did come back as a demon rather than a human after all) while leaving him immune to consequences, and so he's only leaned further and further into this, performing only for himself on a stage soaked with the blood of those he's killed.
      Then again, his name is Art, and art is interpretive by its very nature. I just feel that a lot of his behaviors (and the fact that he's literally a pierrot clown, typically known for masking deep pain with exaggerated masks while typically being the butt of the joke, outcasts that reject society while calling direct attention to the masks we all wear by their very nature) suggest that he does have a traumatic past of some kind that's led him to reject humanity and his connection to it. Also I just find the idea of him being evil because he's evil with no further explanation to be extremely boring, kind of ruins the character imo and makes him much less scary because it's no longer a person behind it all and jesus christ I just realized how much I wrote wtf

      ​@@gaborfotos6121 I didn't say he wasn't sadistic or that he doesn't kill for pleasure. My point was that a lot of his behaviors and mannerisms as well as his identity as a pierrot clown among other things imply, at the very least, some kind of childhood trauma, likely related to his family, and then likely continued negative experiences throughout his life. Sadism does still have to come from somewhere, people don't randomly go on violent killing sprees and then kill themselves

    David, the actor playing Art THE CLOWN (it's literally in his descriptive name 😂) has said many times that Art is not a mime. David had no training as a mime but he worked as a stage actor for many years before he did any movies, Terrifier 1 was his first movie role. Him having training as a mime was an inaccuracy that was perpetuated by news websites and social media. He did children's theatre and acted in the play: How The Grinch Stole Christmas where he learned physical comedy during that time. Also there is no psychological reason behind Art's killings. David has said, Art kills solely for his own entertainment simply because he thinks it's funny. After being resurrected by Satan he goes after the Shaw family (guided by the little pale girl who is a physical manifestation of Satan in the form of a twisted version of one of Art's victims) because Sienna is the only one who can stop Art from having fun/killing more people. Lastly, everything before Terrifier 1 is not cannon to the Terrifier franchise if or until Damien Leone decides it is.

So being a silent clown he uses props which is his weapons and he kills people with them, if he was a mime instead he wouldn't use weapons, instead he'd mime that he had them and he also wouldn't and couldn't kill anyone only mime the kills out, and for some reason he would actually kill as a mime that would automatically make him no longer a mime.

Art indeed can display emotions, but he doesn't feel bad about what he's doing because he's basically the embodiment of evil, (this is what he is) which the creator Damien Leone has mentioned. He's not just a psychopath, the correct term would be "Psychopathic Killer", which is someone with psychopathic traits that lead to homicide, hence why Art behaves the way he does.

      @@NocturnalCritic Empathy does not make you a good person. Empathy is a social adaptation. It is simply the ability to intuit others emotions. You can be incredibly empathetic and also evil/sadistic. In fact there is a theoretical off-shot of ASPD know as the dark empath. A highly empathetic person can be very dangerous if they are also sadistic because they know how to cause the most pain.
      To be clear I am not suggesting that Art is highly empathetic he most likely has very little. However, a psychopath cannot experience empathy full stop. A psychopathic killer is more like Michael Myers or Patrick Bateman. Someone driven to kill those in their way but does not gain specific pleasure in inflicting pain and torment.
      Art does gain pleasure and enjoyment in killing, so a psychopath is unlikely. He would definitely fall into ASPD, and does exhibit many sociopathic traits but I don't think psychopath in an accurate description.
      The term Psychopathic killer seems to be more used as a cool sounding title, instead of something that is accurate to Art's mental state.

They lack morality and a conscience in addition to empathy. The thing is to not get caught or have to face any consequences or be accountable for their behavior. Therefore, most of them intentionally fly under the radar of the law and commit crimes (or equally immoral behaviors whether technically illegal or not) that they can get away with, such as abusing family members.

    Art likely isn't a psychopath. Absolutely hate the flagrant use of the term. The vast majority of serial killers aren't psychopaths and it's debated whether psychopathy even exists in the way it's been portrayed in the past. Psychopathy has been, for decades framed as a disorder in which a person lacks the emotion of empathy or sympathy. The vast majority of "known psychopaths" though, do actually exhibit these things, just not in the way regular people express empathy. The most defining feature of "psychopathy" isn't lack of empathy or fearlessness. It's impulsiveness. Psychopaths DO fear consequences, and they DO feel fear. Hence why they often hide their crimes for years before being caught. What they don't do is meticulously plan things out. Hence why all the infamous "psychopath" serial killers we've caught are often times not "psychopaths".
    Their sadism is the overriding factor and that is what separates a psychopath from not only normal people; but other people with ASPD as well. The vast majority of people with ASPD do not exhibit sadistic behavior, or get joy from hurting people. They're just impulsive, narcissistic, and often times disregard how their actions affect others, but they don't PLAN violence.
