How will the “final” movie resolve the cliffhanger?

WARNING: MAJOR SPOILERS FOR TERRIFIER 3 AHEAD!

Damien Lyon’s brutal slasher Terrifying 3 Taking the battle between Art the Clown and his nemesis Sienna Shaw to new depths, but still Terrifying 3The end of the cliffhanger will be on the next chapter of the franchise to determine their ongoing story. After a predictably well-churning amount of carnage left in the wake of Art and his acolyte, Victoria Hayes, the murderous clown confronts Sienna Shaw once again in the climax of the movie. Their face-off involves a major character death and a nightmarish literal and metaphorical cliffhanger, leaving very clear paths forward for both Art and Sienna.

While there were many kills in Terrifying 3 Which could cause breakup, it felt like a foregone conclusion that Art and Sienna would make it through the Dryquel. The end of Terrifying 3 is clearly not meant to provide any finality to their ongoing conflict, and almost plays like the first part of a two-part story. With another chapter all but guaranteed to be on the way yet Terrifying 3‘s near-perfect Rotten Tomatoes audience score and domestic box office dominance, Terrifying 4 Will need to resolve the cliffhanger that already has fan-theory engines running wild.

How the cliffhanger ending of Terrifier 3 sets up Terrifier 4

It provides Sienna Shaw with a clear mission

Following Terrifying 3Sienna Shaw and her young cousin Gabby are able to evade their captors, Art and Vicky, and get Sienna’s magic sword into her hands. The demon that was possessing Vicky opens a portal in the floor. Gabby falls into the Hell Pit, and is able to hang on the side long enough to give Sienna time to try to reach her with the sword. Unfortunately, Gabby falls off the cliff, taking the sword with her and slicing Sienna’s hands in the process.

Therein lies the new road for Siena. Sienna vows that she will find her cousin, and her hands magically heal in front of her eyes. Sienna proved in both Terrifying 2 And now Terrifying 3 that she has a supernatural side just like art; Her “angel warrior” character and costume from Terrifying 2 May actually be an indication of her true powers and abilities. Her continued determination, despite the incredible loss she suffered at Art’s hands, means that Terrifying 4 will see you set out to find Gabi, and kill Art once and for all in the process.

Sienna’s mission to save Gabby could take Terrifying 4 to hell

Sienna must now free her cousin from the pits of hell

Although it is not explicitly stated, it is pretty clearly implied that the pit that Gbie fell into is actually a portal to hell itself. The hole opened after Vicky’s blood spilled over the ground and something that appeared to be smoke or mist came out of her body. Vicky was pretty clearly possessed during the events of Tariff 3With the dark resonance in her voice and the eternal immortality (before her death, anyway). The demon probably opened the gate to escape back to hellAnd Gabi unfortunately fell in when it ran away.

That means, to save Gabby, Siena will have to find a way in hell. Sienna had experienced something similar before, as she found herself trapped in the nightmarish Clown Cafe after being killed by Art. Damien Lyon clarified that the Clown Cafe was a subconscious divine test and not an actual location in the Terrifying 2 Director’s Commentary (per Bloody disgusting), but the real hell will surely have similar horrors. Sienna will need the divine powers she now has if she expects to not only find her way to Hell, but return with her cousin in tow.

Art can come back stronger than before

Another resurrection can make him up

Art was a depraved but “normal” serial killer in the first one terrifyingBut his resurrection at the end of the movie made him something else entirely. The reference to The 9th circle at the end of Terrifying 3 Makes it clear that the powers behind art and Sienna are actually the most significant forms of good and evil; Theirs is a battle between the forces of heaven and hell. This means that it is possible that art will come back even stronger than before.

Sienna healing her hands at the end of Terrifying 3 Indicates that she’s beginning to realize just how much divine power she has. If she is in fact a representation of the divine on earth, then It’s only a matter of time before Art gets a power-up too. He received support from the demon that possessed Vicki (the same one that took the form of the little pale girl) in Terrifying 3But Art’s powers and abilities remained relatively unchanged from Terrifying 2 to Terrifying 3. He is due to become an even greater threat himself Terrifying 4.

Sienna must permanently defeat Art to finish Terrifier

Their battle between good and evil needs closure

With Sienna and Art positioned as avatars for the forces of good and evil, their conflict needs to come to a satisfying conclusion. Sienna now has her own history and story, complete with an origin story related to her father, his illness, and his connection to Art the Clown. The only truly satisfying way for these terrifying Franchise to end is For Siena to find a way to defeat Art once and for allWith the powers of good victory over evil.

Art’s immortality is his greatest weapon as the franchise is now, so there needs to be some stakes and risk for him, otherwise the series will risk becoming boring and repetitive. It would be No point in building up Sienna’s character and giving her divine powers only for her to die at Art’s handsJust like so many others have. She must be the only one to free the citizens of Miles County and the world at large from Art’s evil rule, thereby providing closure for herself after Art has taken so much from her.

Will Terrifier 4 be the last entry in the franchise?

The fan base of the franchise is still growing

It seems highly unlikely, given the wild profit margins and glowing reputation the franchise has established, that Terrifying 4 Marks the end of the terrifying Series. The supernatural side of the terrifying Franchise has come to the forefront in the last two chapters, with Art’s conflict against Sienna slowly developing into a microcosm of the great cosmic battle between good and evil in the universe. There is still so much to explore in this regard, viz The origins of art are not really even explained.

On top of that, the terrifying Franchise never really even left the fictional Miles County. Terrifying 3 Changed the angle a little by setting the events at Christmas instead of Halloween, but for the most part the franchise hit many of the same notes. It would be entertaining to see Art go to his usual evil demeanor in different locations, perhaps even independent of his battle with Sienna. With how popular the terrifying franchise has grown quickly, it feels like it has the potential to be a long-running slasher franchise with many sequels to come Terrifying 4.
