You get three superpower pills

You get three pills that each offer you a distinct set of powers. The catch is that the powers granted by the pills only last 24 hours and they can’t be taken within 24 hours of each other. They can’t be replicated in any way and only work for you. You’ll have perfect control of the powers and any secondary powers required to use them without issue.

Flying brick: You have super strength (100 tons), durability (only a 100 kiloton nuclear weapon can kill you), speed (Mach 10), reflexes (microsecond reaction time), flight (Mach 10) and stamina (you never tire).

Telepath: You can read, alter, control and shut down the minds of anyone in a 500 foot radius. The effects can remain in place if they leave the radius.

Healer: You can instantly fix any injury, illness, ailment, etc. in a 500 foot radius (including yourself). It grants an extra 10 years to the person’s lifespan but not immortality.

What pill would you take in what order and how much time between pills?

What would you do with each power set?

Progression of scope and scale in Terrifier 4?

I don’t know if Leone has explicitly mentioned this but each sequel in the franchise is larger in scope and scale than the film before. Art went from tormenting women at a pizza shop to killing a group of people at a bar and bombing a mall.

Do you think it’s certain we’ll see a similar progression in scope and scale in Terrifier 4?

I’ve seen people mention the possibility of Art wreaking havoc or fleeing in Times Square on the night of New Year’s Eve and I think there will be a massive party scene of some kind. The closest Art has come to something like that so far is when he enters the frat party in Terrifier 3 but we don’t actually see him inside. I also think we’ll get a scene where Art either fights the police or a vigilante mob (possibly ending in him dying and going to Hell). He’s too wanted and conspicuous and New York is too populated for him to get from place to place without people noticing and calling the police like the end of the first film.

How do you respond to the “Let people enjoy things” argument?

It seems like whenever anything concerning the state of society and the people in it comes up online, there’s always the chorus of “Why do people care about this? It isn’t illegal or harmful, it doesn’t affect you, you’re a puritan and a moral busybody that wants to sterilize society if you’re against this, etc.”

What are your thoughts?

Does society have an interest in policing/discouraging/reducing behaviors that aren’t immoral but are nonetheless unhealthy or something you shouldn’t want to be the kind of person that engages in?

Does something have to strictly concern harm (or at least obvious harm like physical injury or death) of some kind for a sane, moral and rational person to care about it or wish it didn’t happen?

What location would you want for Terrifier 5?

Imagine Terrifier 4 ending with Sienna killing the entity, defeating Art and saving Gabbie.

If Terrifier 5 happened in the future with a powerless Art, no Sienna and no entity but set somewhere in the US besides Miles County, where would you want it to be set and why?

What kind of story would you want to see?

I would want it to be set either in a small town in New Jersey or a city outside New York that isn’t generic like New Orleans.

Would you rather get $10 million or take a 50/50 chance of something better?

You are given two minutes to decide between two options.

1: You get $10 million. No one will question it and it won’t be taxed.

2: You get a 50% chance of getting nothing and a 50% chance of getting the powers of Storm, Magneto and Professor X from the current 616 Marvel comic universe. You’ll have perfect control of the powers and any secondary powers required to use them properly without unintended consequence.

Which would you choose and why?

What spell would have the biggest impact if used in warfare?

Two countries of comparable population and resources in 1750 Europe are at war with each other. An unknown wizard on one side decides to cast a spell on the enemy army. The catch is that the spell can only be done once and will only work on a third of the enemy army. The wizard has to choose one of three options.

1: The third turn to flies

2: The third turn to ice

3: The third cease to exist completely

Which option do you think would have the best psychological effect on the enemy country?

Terrifier 4 chase sequences?

One complaint that’s brought up about Terrifier 3 is that there weren’t any chase sequences like the previous films. The closest would be Art chasing the mother downstairs in the intro but it wasn’t particularly noteworthy or lengthy. Everyone else he simply kills on the spot.

With Art being a normal human without supernatural assistance and presumably public enemy number one as of the end of Terrifier 3, I certainly hope there are chase sequences in Terrifier 4. Not just Art chasing people in typical slasher fashion but Art being chased by Sienna, the police, angry citizens, etc. There are so many different scenarios and situations you could come up with based on the premise without the fantastical and I trust Leone to make it the wildest and most exciting entry in the franchise.

What do you think?

Are chase sequences particularly important to you?

How would you feel about Art being on the back foot and chased for once?

Would you accept powers if it meant an extremely evil person got them as well?

You are given the chance to get powers.

The powers are super strength (500 tons), durability (nothing short of a 750 kiloton nuclear weapon can harm you), speed (Mach 500), reflexes (nanosecond reaction time), flight (Mach 500), stamina (you never tire) and immortality (you won’t ever age). The powers can’t be duplicated or passed on in any way and you will have perfect control of them and any secondary powers required to use them without issue.

The catch is that the moment you accept a serial killing psychopath somewhere in the world will get the same powers. Think someone like Dennis Rader or Richard Ramirez. They will know they have them and that someone else in the world has them as well. You are capable of killing each other like normal humans but it will take a bit longer because of the durability.

Would you accept the powers or continue living normally?
