Cineverse, Bloody Disgusting and the Terrifier team were invited to the Nasdaq MarketSite to celebrate the box office success of Damien Leone’s Terrifier 3, which has thus far scared up $46.2 million domestically and $59.1 million worldwide. It’s an unprecedented success story for an unrated indie horror movie, now officially the highest grossing unrated film in history.
Joined by Art the Clown and Lauren LaVera, Cineverse President Erick Opeka took to the Nasdaq podium to begin the celebration. “Special thanks goes to the creative team behind the production of the Terrifier franchise, which has become a horror film phenomenon and number one box office hit,” said Opeka. “We couldn’t be more thrilled with the success, and we’re grateful to have Terrifier 3 producer Phil Falcone, and lead actress Lauren LaVera here with us today, along with Art the Clown himself. We look forward to building on this momentum, both in horror, powered by Cineverse’s Bloody Disgusting team, the leading brand in the category, and other genres across theatrical, streaming, podcast, publishing and more.”
