Terrifier cast member Michael Leavy has directed a new horror film called Stream – and not only has he brought Terrifier and Terrifier 2 director Damien Leone on board to handle the special effects, but he also packed the cast with genre icons. Here’s a sample of the Stream cast list: Tony Todd (the original Candyman himself), Jeffrey Combs (Re-Animator), Danielle Harris (Halloween 4), Felissa Rose (Sleepaway Camp), Dee Wallace (The Howling), Mark Holton (Leprechaun), Daniel Roebuck (Final Destination), Dave Sheridan (The Devil’s Rejects), Terry Alexander (Day of the Dead), David Howard Thornton (Terrifier), Tim Reid (Stephen King’s It), Charles Edwin Powell (Exorcist III), Bob Adrian (The Conjuring 2), Sydney Malakeh (Cheer Camp Killer), Wesley Holloway (Terrifier 2), Jadon Cal (Megaboa), and Linden Porco (Leprechaun Returns). Iconic Events Releasing will be giving the film a theatrical release in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico on August 21st – and with that date just one month away, Variety reveals there’s another genre icon in the cast who has previously been left off the cast list: Bill Moseley from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, House of 1000 Corpses, The Devil’s Rejects, and many more!
Leavy confirmed Moseley’s involvement to Variety after horror fans caught a quick glimpse of him in a trailer. Leavy said, “This is something we have been sitting on for quite a while and we are super honored and excited to have Bill showcase his talents on the big screen. Horror fans will not be disappointed! Stream is a fun ride and we hope everyone will pre-order their tickets to see it in theaters, spread the word and tell their friends to come along!“
Leavy directed the film from a screenplay he wrote with Jason Leavy, Steven Della Salla, and Robert Privitera. Here’s the synopsis: When Roy and Elaine Keenan realize their family is drifting apart, they decide that something needs to be done. Roy forces his work to take a back seat and they seize the opportunity to recreate a vacation from their past. A peaceful stay in a quaint hotel is just what they need, however that is not what is in store for them. With four deranged murderers patrolling the seemingly mundane halls, the odds are definitely not in the Keenan family’s favor. Roy must fight for his life and those of his family as their simple weekend getaway truly turns into a vacation to die for.
According to IMDb page for Stream, the Keenan family consists of characters played by Charles Edwin Powell, Danielle Harris, Sydney Malakeh, and Wesley Holloway.
A trailer for Stream was released last October and can be viewed at THIS LINK. About two months after sending this film to theatres, Iconic Events Releasing will also be giving Terrifier 3 a theatrical release. The date for that one is October 11th.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, the movie industry saw the boom of the streaming age, with services proving to be the best way to catch flicks while cinemas were closed. One that emerged just before the pandemic was Disney+, which, like most, saw its subscription numbers grow during that time. With many still unsure if they wanted to return to the cinema in 2021, Disney made the decision to simultaneously release MCU entry Black Widow in theaters and on Disney+ through their Premier Access banner. This, as you remember, prompted lead Scarlett Johansson to file a lawsuit against Disney over breach of contract, the actress taking a stand in a way that no other star had before.
Disney would soon settle with Scarlett Johansson. And while she remains unsure if she would return as Black Widow, the actress maintains that she holds no permanent ill will against the House of Mouse. Speaking with The New York Times, Johansson said, “I don’t hold a grudge. I think it was just poor judgment and poor leadership at that time. It just felt very unprofessional to me, the entire ordeal. And honestly, I was incredibly disappointed, especially because I was holding out hope until, finally, my team was like, ‘You have to act.’”
At the time, a rep for Disney slammed Johansson for the suit while accusing her of downplaying the pandemic, saying, “There is no merit whatsoever to this filing. The lawsuit is especially sad and distressing in its callous disregard for the horrific and prolonged global effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. Disney has fully complied with Ms. Johansson’s contract and furthermore, the release of Black Widow on Disney+ with Premier Access has significantly enhanced her ability to earn additional compensation on top of the $20M she has received to date.”
Despite Disney’s release tactic – which Johansson claimed would cost her millions in box office points – Black Widow still pulled in $380 million worldwide, kicking off Phase Four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which also saw Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Eternals and Spider-Man: No Way Home out in 2021.
What impact do you think Scarlett Johansson made with her lawsuit against Disney? Do you want to see her return to play Black Widow?
Writer/director Damien Leone had a budget of around $55,000 to work with on his breakout horror film Terrifier, and a budget of “a little over” $250,000 for Terrifier 2, which was a massive hit when it was released last year, earning $15.1 million at the box office. Since the second film did so well, Terrifier 3 has a substantially higher budget. A “couple million” is going into this one, and we’re going to get the chance to see how that translates to the screen when the film receives a theatrical release on October 11th. We still have a while to wait for this one, but today our friends at Bloody Disgusting have unveiled an image from the film that shows Art the Clown with a box cutter. That’s not going to be a good combination for anyone unlucky enough to cross his path. You can check out the image at the bottom of this article.
Terrifier 3 has the following synopsis: Art the Clown is set to unleash chaos on the unsuspecting residents of Miles County as they peacefully drift off to sleep on Christmas Eve.
David Howard Thornton reprises the role of Art the Clown, a character who was first introduced in Leone’s 2013 anthology All Hallows’ Eve (although Thornton didn’t start playing him until Terrifier). Also in the cast are Lauren LaVera, who’s back as Terrifier 2 heroine Sienna; Elliot Fullam returns as Sienna’s brother Jonathan, Samantha Scaffidi is returning as Terrifier and Terrifier 2 character Victoria Heyes, and Daniel Roebuck, who has been cast in the role of Santa Claus. FX legend Tom Savini will also be showing up, in an unspecified role. The same goes for Jon Abrahams, Antonella Rose, Krsy Fox, and legendary character actor Clint Howard. Chris Jericho, who had a cameo in Terrifier 2, is back in Terrifier 3 – but he has let everyone know that his appearance in the film won’t last very long.
Leone has said that this new sequel will be going back to the tone of the first movie, as he’s aiming to make the third film the scariest, goriest, and most depraved of the bunch. He’ll be pulling back on the mystical/fantasy element that was so prevalent in the second film, and is also aiming to make sure this one will be less than two hours long, since the second one surpassed the two hour mark. If you’re worried that Terrifier 3 might wrap the franchise up as a trilogy, have no fear. Leone knows that horror franchises always continue, and anything’s possible once the supernatural gets involved. So even if he brings a sequel to a satisfying conclusion for himself as the creator of the franchise, the door can always be opened to more sequels.
