Cinema issued major warning to anyone going to see Terrifier 3 that could make you think again

Terrifier 3 has been the talk of the town since its release worldwide on Friday (11 October), but if you somehow haven't heard about just how terrifying it is, a few cinemas are giving their customers a last-minute reminder.

Those who haven't yet seen it have already been advised to bring a spare pair of pants and a vomit bag, as well as being urged to prepare for the possibility of passing out or requiring an ambulance after watching the gory threequel.

If you still reckon your stomach's strong enough to make it through the two-hour slasher flick, take a look at how these lot fared while watching Terrifier 3 at the UK Gala Premiere:

Although their reactions might be hilarious in hindsight, the atmosphere in the room wasn't amusing at all - and nine people ended up walking out as they simply couldn't hack it.

All under-18s in France have now been outright banned from seeing the slasher film, revolving around the character Art the Clown, in a ruling which hasn't been enforced since Saw 3 was released in 2006.

It seems like there's some kind of running theme with horror film franchises taking the gruesomeness to a whole new level in the third instalment, eh?

Anyway, Art the Clown's chilling return from the dead to face-off with Sienna Shaw (Lauren LaVera) and her brother Jonathan (Elliott Fullam) once more really lives up to the movie's title, according to fans.

One viewer who said she was 'fighting for her life' while watching Terrifier 3 even claimed her Apple Watch was buzzing throughout the duration of the film warning her that her heart rate was through the roof.

But if you do need another nudge to save yourself from a week of nightmares, your local cinema might do you a solid like this UK one and display a sobering warning on the front doors.

If you need a last-minute excuse to wuss out of watching Terrifier 3, this might do the trick.

A longtime fan of the slasher franchise, @TerrifierFilm, has been sharing updates about the film - which is rated 18 by the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) - on Twitter.

On Friday, they shared a snap of a 'Customer Notice' which had been stuck up at a cinema in the UK explaining that people weren't kidding when they said Art's third act made them have a visceral reaction.

It reads: "Due to the nature of this film, we would like to inform customers that if they start to feel queasy or light-headed during the showing of Terrifier 3, to please come speak to a member of staff.

"We will be able to sort you a seat and a cup of water."

It is not clear what cinema the poster was displayed at, or why they reckon a cup of water would cure pure terror, but it then went on to reiterate some ratings which have been published by the BBFC about the contents of Terrifier 3.

The violence in it has been awarded a 5/5, with the UK film watchdog explaining it features some gory scenes where actors are brutalised while they're still alive, adding that these scenes are in 'bloody detail'.

For threat and horror, it earned a 4/5, with the BBFC noting there are 'sustained scenes of supernatural horror', while Terrifier 3 received the same score for its use of strong language.

The BBFC goes on to warn that there is also 'a scene of strong sex' as well as scene which depicts masturbation, again in 'bloody detail', seeing the body give it a 4/5 for sex.

And finally, the injury detail received a 5/5 rating, warning there are some extremely gruesome acts committed.

Social media users responded to the post on Twitter explaining they had seen some similar warning signs at their local cinemas.

One said: "See now you're forcing me to watch this!"

Another wrote: "Best cinema experience this year, y’all are some damn mad people. Post viewing I feel like I’ve necked Absinthe. What a buzz."

A third added: "This is priceless advertising. The last movie with these types of stats I saw at least 10 years ago hasn’t left my memory. Therefore I now must see this movie."

So...anyone fancy catching Terrifier 3 later then lads?
