The filmmakers used what was already available to them
Plot
After being resurrected by a sinister entity, Art the Clown returns to the small town of Miles County to target a teenage girl and her younger brother on Halloween night. Haunted House was filmed in a real haunted house called the Fright Factory in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Art’s favorite acid is fluoroantimonic acid, which he keeps in a clear glass bottle. It is a super acid capable of dissolving even glass.
Art the Clown:
A central scene takes place in a mental hospital with Chris Jericho as security guard Alan Burke and Leah Voysey as a nurse. .. The German DVD and Blu-ray releases from Tiberius Film are shortened by approx. three minutes to secure the “Not Under 18” title; rating (this was necessary because the guidelines for video release are stricter than for theatrical release).
Adapted from Terrifier (2016)
Basically every violent scene was edited to tone down the violence. Nameless Media’s 4K Ultra-HD Blu-ray Mediabook releases are available for free download. The Equalizer (Not Alone) Written by Tim McEwan and Tyler Lyle (as Jamison Tyler Lyle) Performed by The MidnightCourtesy of BMG Platinum Songs U.S. (BMI).
What happened was not that
So I went into it hoping it would be the same format as the first one. A psycho clown meets strangers and takes them out in a terrifying way for 90 minutes. Don’t get me wrong, the brutality was turned up to 11 and they were a little more fun. But there were really drawn out scenes.
And I figured they did that to create a plot and story worth following
They even created plot devices that made it seem at first glance that this was going to be one hell of a sequel. But by the time the credits rolled, no questions had been answered, no plot had been resolved. This is so disappointing, I really could go on and on about this, but why bother.
