Christmas has come early this year with Terrifier 3, Art the Clown’s new big-screen killing spree – and if you already want to watch it at home, there’s one place it’ll be streaming first.
It’s been an extraordinary two years for Damien Leone’s Terrifier franchise. After building up a small but passionate fanbase with All Hallows’ Eve and Terrifier, its 2022 sequel became a bona fide phenomenon in the US.
Last Friday (October 11), Terrifier 3 was unleashed across the world, and it’s already the series’ biggest movie to date; it even beat Joker 2 at the box office.
With ambulances spotted at screenings and reports of fainting, vomiting, and viewers passing out, it’s a hell of a time to go to a movie theater.
When is Terrifier 3 coming to streaming?
Terrifier 3 has set its digital release date for November 26, 2024. It hasn’t confirmed when it’ll be available via a streaming subscription.
If you’re not brave enough to watch it in the cinema, or maybe you just want to re-watch it, you’ll be able to purchase it digitally via VOD platforms.
How to watch Terrifier 3
Terrifier 3 is available exclusively in theaters right now.
It’s a considerably larger release this time around. Terrifier 2 barely made it outside the US, mainly because the movie’s team couldn’t have anticipated how popular and notorious it became. Much like the threequel, it attracted morbid curiosity after claims of nausea and people fainting emerged from screenings.
With Joker 2 becoming a box office bomb, Terrifier 3 is expected to be big – it’s opening in over 2,500 screens in North America, and it’s already France’s number one movie (despite its rare under-18s ban).
Where to watch Terrifier 3 on streaming
Terrifier 3 will be available to stream on ScreamBox before any other platform, so don’t expect to see it on Netflix, Prime Video, or Shudder for a while.

ScreamBox is owned by Cineverse, the distributor behind Terrifier 3. If it copies Terrifier 2’s theatrical-to-streaming window, you’ll be able to watch it at home next month (so sometime in November).
However, it could hold off if it amasses millions at the box office, so keep this article bookmarked and we’ll update it when we get a streaming release date.
Terrifier 3 runtime and rating
Terrifier 3 is 125 minutes (2 hours 5 mins) long. This includes credits, and there’s no post-credits scene, so you’ll be sitting down for around two hours.
As for Terrifier 3’s age rating, it’s a little complicated. If you’re in the US, it’s unrated, which means you probably need to be 17 or older to see it, or else you’ll need an adult to take you (some theaters may allow younger audiences in, though).
In the UK, it has an 18 rating, meaning nobody under the age of 18 can buy a ticket. Similarly, France banned under-18s from seeing it (but it still topped the country’s box office, so it didn’t make a big difference).
