Featuring an all-star cast of horror legends,Streamfollows a vacationing family who find themselves caught up in a sadistic game of cat and mouse as they and other hotel guests are stalked by four ruthless killersin an event that’s broadcast across the world.

The over-the-top slasher flick is co-written and directed by Michael Leavy, who appeared in the firstTerrifierfilm as Will the Exterminator, and served as producer on the sequels. In a statement released yesterday, he said that followingStream’slimited theatrical release in August,he can’t wait forTerrifierfans to finally be able to continue the fun at home.
“The reviews have been incredibly humbling and we are so excited to give our loyal fans the ultimate experience! After seeing Terrifier 3 in theaters they now have the chance to continue to fill that gore love right away and get more from our team and Damien Leone in having the chance to see Stream from the comfort of their own home, before going back to see Terrifier 3 again in theaters of course.”
Stream Reunites Almost the Whole Terrifier Crew
In addition to Leavy helmingStream,Terrifiercreator Damien Leone is also on board, serving as not only a producer,but as the head of the special makeup effects department, so you know it’s bathed in butchery. David Howard Thornton, who has portrayed Art the Clown since 2016, also appears as one of the masked killers known as Player 2, and Jason Leavy and Steven Della Salla are trading in their cop uniforms and producer chairs from theTerrifierfranchise for co-writing credits, while also acting as producers onStream. Phil Falcone had a hand in bringing the film to life as well, as he’s done with all the movies in Leone’s saga.
