Terrifier - Timeline

[Pro Bot]

A lot of the time, things are thought to be true by a lot of people while being completely false. I feel like this is likely an instance of that, especially with the demonic lore in the series and the callback to The 9th Circle. Did he say "All Hallows' Eve is non-canon" or did he say "Art didn't know he would come back to life because he was a normal human in the first film"? Sources and context is needed, I think. People claim a lot of things are non-canon without evidence.

Even if you interpret Art as being fully human and normal in the first film and supernatural in All Hallows' Eve, that doesn't make All Hallows' Eve non-canon. That either means the present day of All Hallows' Eve is in the future or Art's powers are not always present. I mean, he loses a lot of his supernatural power at the end of Terrifier 3. It's an easy thing to work around and there's no contradictions.

Not to mention Art's yellow eyes resembling Vicky and the Pale Girl.

From what I remember on Twitter he straight up said All Hallows Eve is noncanon. I don't have an account anymore so I'm not sure if I could find it on Google alone

Btw did the ARTcade game ever come out?

Iirc Leone confirmed All Hallows Eve isn't canon to the Terrifier series. Since art only became supernatural at the end of the first film.

I've been using key word searching and "All Hallows Eve," "canon," and "Terrifier" never lead to any statement from Leone anywhere. Definitely not on X. If no statement can be found, then there's not really much to talk about.

You have to understand, I've dealt with claims of many things being non-canon without any precedence in the past. Kevin Feige never said Marvel TV was non-canon but people claimed that he did.

Maybe search for "story" or "part of the story"? Or maybe AHE as an acronym he could be using for All Hallows Eve

He also might have said it on Reddit

Here's the full playthrough of the game. Idk how you can fit it into Canon. It's about the in-universe Damien Leone making a movie based on Art's killings so he and his friends go to stop them. The Pale Girl and Vicky are there and uh, I don't think those 2 can technically exist at the same time because iirc it's the same spirit possessing them. Also since Vicky is alive this probably takes place during Terrifier 3 if canon. I think the 4th playable character is the Orderly from the ending of Terrifier 2/beginning of 3. Not sure why he's alive again/working with Art but whatever. Sienna also shows up at the end (there's also a boss fight with her earlier but it's unclear if that's also actually her or just an actor for the in-universe film.

Since you included the animated reveal trailer you can also include this animated launch trailer

Either magic demon BS or it's an in-universe game, as supported by this tie-in.

True. I wish it was just a canon game tbh.

Well, depends. You can argue it's demonic resurrection and fit it in, but then the next film will probably complicate things.

Director Leone's boss fight in Terrifier: The ARTcade Game has him creating Dragon Ball-esque blue balls to attack with. If you look closely, you can see the Devil and alien from All Hallows' Eve in them. Really cool detail. Lots of visual easter eggs in an admittedly crappy game that makes it fun.

I wonder if the Alien plotline will ever get resolved. Probably not as he regrets making that part iirc

Terrifier 4 has been confirmed by Leone as the final film. Makes sense... I just hope this one has let's say equality among gruesome kills.

 

[user 16960]

I guess the ARTcade game could work as taking place after the opening of 3 but before the main events. Art and Vicky could have just woke back up like a week or 2 later, revived the Orderly with the demon possession or whatever like Pale Girl and then all 4 of them trash the movie based on the events of their last massacre. Sierra shows up at the end and we don't know what happens following that but presumably the Orderly dies again and Sierra goes to the psych ward like she was during the 5 year gap. Then Art and Vicky just go back to the abandoned house and go back to sleep for the gap... It's messy still obviously but I think it's the best option

Unless there's other material from the 3rd film in this game that I'm forgetting that would have to place it after it's entirety

Oh, definitely not.

I know what you mean by that, yeah... Leone is clearly not a misogynist and just likes making movies, but I do get you. I think that Terrifier 2 and 3 did it pretty well, personally. "Just the tip" was plenty ****** up and made me cross my legs and cringe.

There's pictures from the third movie in one of the levels.

Oooooof course. Ugh

 

[Pro Bot]

I think it's fine where it is, personally. If the fourth movie destroys the game continuity, it's a very easy option to move it.

 

[user 16960]

Is there a reason you put the AHE shorts back to just being fictional shorts and not real events?

 

[Pro Bot]

All Hallows' Eve 2 has a short that literally takes place on the last Halloween ever and is an apocalypse. This doesn't make any sense if it's set in the same universe as the wraparounds. Just feels more consistent to place the original material as part of the same universe but the unconnected parts they found and spliced together as being fictional.

All Hallows' Eve 2 can easily be interpreted to follow a copycat of Art - the Trickster isn't supernatural (or friends with the Devil) and the shorts have no connection to each other or the main story. All Hallows' Eve: Trickster's wraparounds can follow the Devil plot from The 9th Circle. All Hallows' Eve: Inferno features a few of the same creatures from the previous film. I'd honestly recommend to anyone that they, if they really can't be asked, skip all the unnecessary shorts to just watch the wraparounds. They're not really good but it won't take much time at least.

I think I've only ever seen the 2nd AHE lol
