Review: ‘Terrifier 3’ (2024)
SPOILERS for Terrifier 1-3 (2016-2024) and All Hallows’ Eve (2013).
Terrifier franchise director, writer and producer, Damien Leone first created Art the Clown for his 2006 short film The 9th Circle. A second short film titled Terrifier (2011) expanded into the 2013 anthology film (and Leone’s feature film directorial debut) All Hallows’ Eve (starring Mike Giannelli as Art and Katie Maguire, who went on to play talk show host Monica Brown in T1).
Terrifier (T1) was released in 2016, and, despite its low budget of $35,000 and mixed reviews, the film quickly rose to cult film status. Its 2022 sequel Terrifier 2 (T2) became an unexpected box office success, grossing well above its estimated $250,000 budget. The highly anticipated Terrifier 3 (T3) will be released in Australian cinemas from tomorrow, October 10, 2024.

SIX is a musical about the ex-wives of King Henry VIII, who held the English throne from the age of 17 in 1509 until his death in 1547. But this is not a stuffy, old retelling of history. No, no. Writers Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss have taken some creative liberties injecting modern-day language, mobile phones and dating norms such as swiping left or right on a potential match.
It’s a concept that shouldn’t work, and yet it does brilliantly.

Elegies: a song cycle is a show for a very specific theatre goer. It is for the ones who don’t need showiness, rather, those who appreciate the simplicity of engrossing vocalisation and lyricism.

Formally known as Fan Fair, CMA Fest began in 1972. This year’s festival raised more than $2.5 million for music education and saw more than 90,000 people flock to Nashville, Tennessee.
Attending CMA Fest can be a scary, confusing and overwhelming time for those who have never been before. So, I’ve gathered together some tips and tricks for making your four-day experience at the world’s largest country music festival hopefully, well, easier.
Above all else, have a great time. Music brings people together and creates a sense of community with everyone there to have a good time. That feeling is palpable, especially when everyone is up singing and dancing together. CMA Fest is a huge yet incredibly well run event, and well worth going to at the very least once in your life if you’re interested in country music.

With thunderstorms predicted in Nashville on June 9, the rain and slightly cooler weather was a relief from the heat on the festival’s final day. Well, maybe only for us winter-loving beings.
Day 4 was a more chill and social day for me. I hadn’t a full list of places that I wanted/needed to be like previous days and again, with the cooler weather, I felt more inspired to walk around, see the sights, experience more of Nashville and discover whatever new music took my fancy.
