He played that clown a little TOO good lol. He really had me tripping after that movie.

[elliottneo]

Watching behind the scenes after a scary movies really calms me down and not have nightmares.

[jakeerbst]

That makeup is insanely good. They way it’s able to morph with his changing expression is really awesome, when he goes from creepy smile to his seriously sinister glare, the way the makeup is able to accent both so well is really impressive

[TruecrimerSalad]

David Howard Thorton is amazing! He's so talented. He does tons of voices characters, & best of all Art. David brings every character he does to life in a real way. He's the best

[snowantric]

Am I the only one who came to this just to be less scared of art the clown

[dyllman]

Lol "what's your favorite part?"

"I loved riding the bicycle" lmao that was great

[vampirebunny]

I don’t know what I was expecting David’s voice to sound like but I didn’t expect it to be so friendly and normal for some reason 😂

[nasserbu]

The part when he cut the women In half was disturbing I couldn’t even sleep

[kat]

Ok im not gonna lie I breathed a sigh of relief when David started talking regularly

[MrWhis-fehs]

Wait so the director is also doing the makeup??? Wow not only is art my favorite recent villain but the fact he made art, the script, the makeup, directed is actually pretty handsome and what everyone says is a pretty good guy I hope he gets more work

[tanmin]

I love that Damien does Art’s makeup. So wholesome.

[-kltten]

I dressed up as art the clown last Halloween and boyo did I scare some little kids 💀

[malecheerleader]

David is amazing! He is perfect for the role. No offense to the guy who played him prior to Terrifier, but David is much better!

[webguy]

He really does a nice blend of horror, gore and creepy comedy which no other movie monster does really. I hope they can flesh out a really good story out of it to make it iconic.

[Daniellespah]

When they asked about him going into character, Having that character just kind of bubbling beneath the surface and pulling it out when you're in the right outfit honestly is alot easier than method acting. Some people have to but if you can think of it like a switch.. w a character like this it would save your sanity lol mothod acting that strong of a character would be so draining and hard on your mentality

[NoName-pbfb]

Art will never scare me. He’s to adorable

[nairatorosyan]

The part when he cuts the girl in half tho...

[ayleeebvby]

i love the fact that the director, and creator of Art the Clown aka Damien Leone does Art the Clowns makeup!!! It just hits different him doing the makeup VS a makeup artist. You can feel Damiens passion for Art which makes me passionate for the whole Terrifier franchies. Cant wait for Terrifier 3 to come out whenever it does. So excited to finally have a new horror character that IMO is going to be up there with all the OG horror classics. 🖤🖤🖤🖤

[Joshuababy]

"I'm such a big kid, " said the actor who plays Art the Clown... I love it!!

[honeypotbear]

Whenever he answered the question the first thing that popped into my mind was HE SPEAKS
