Terrifier 2 is all about how terror can grip an individual, can haunt a community. Art the clown is true to his name, as art gives us the ability to explore our deepest fears and anxieties through images, words, sounds, and stories. He is the embodiment of evil, and he haunts the residents of Miles County as they cope with a tragedy. After a bloody massacre that took ten lives, Art’s mysterious presence haunts the community as people obsess over his whereabouts and fear his return—he is, in artistic terms, a symbol. And as that terror pervades the community, the embodiment of goodness is required to fight it.
That’s where Sienna comes in. Grappling with her own tragedy in the loss of her father, she must realize a destiny her father foresaw: Sienna must vanquish Art. Thus, Art’s communal terror then extends to Sienna’s individual journey. She and her brother Jonathan are desperate to make sense of their father’s mental deterioration, to understand why he became abusive at the end of his life. As Sienna fights Art, she’s symbolically battling the inner grief and trauma that has gripped her and her brother since their father’s death. As Sienna fights the evil that has a stranglehold over her community, she’s fighting for both her community’s and her own survival.
