Signature Entertainment UK, who are distributing Terrifier 3 in the UK and Ireland, recently shared a clip of an employee watching the film.
The woman can be seen covering her eyes and looking away from the screen. She dares to look back for a moment before covering them again.
Sharing the clip on X/Twitter, the company wrote: ‘The team at @SignatureEntUK witnessed a first look at footage from @damienleone’s #Terrifier3,’ it wrote on X.
‘This was one reaction. She’ll never be the same again. Experience what she saw and more only in cinemas 11 October.’
The first Terrifier, made on a tiny budget of just $60,000, was released in 2016.
The movie went viral after its release due to one particularly horrifying death scene, which involved somebody being mutilated with a hacksaw.
The sequel Terrifier 2 came along six years later and made an impressive $15.7million on a budget of just $250,000.
In the film, Art returned after being resurrected by a sinister supernatural entity to wreak more havoc, this time targeting a teenage girl and her younger brother.

Due to the second film’s success, the third instalment has a significantly larger budget of $2million.
Writer and director Damien Leone previously told how he turned down financing from major Hollywood studios so that he would not be creatively restricted in what he could show on screen.
The filmmaker teased the first five minutes of Terrifier 3 are ‘very controversial’.
Speaking to joblo.com, he said: ‘I got to meet with studios, like legit Hollywood studios, who wanted to make Terrifier 3.
‘But before I even had a script, just having meetings and getting the feel that I was going to have eyes over my shoulders, and they were concerned about the levels of gore and this and that.’
He continued: ‘I knew they weren’t going to let me make this movie based on the first five pages. Like that’s how insane Terrifier 3 is.’
‘Mark my words. I guarantee you the first five minutes of this movie is going to be very controversial. But that’s not even the big kill scene. So that’s why I was like, I need to just make this movie on my own, because it’s too insane.
‘If you thought Art the Clown’s reign of terror in part two was extreme, you haven’t seen anything yet.’
