So I've seen all 3. Budget has helped the franchise. Love all 3 of them, but the gore has improved along with the realism look to the dismantlment. Terrifier 2 was left at a good spot to set this film up. Plot can get confusing if you miss a scene or two. Love how we got a little understanding of who art is and his purpose. Love the horror christmas theme. Art has not changed one bit. Hopeful for a 4th and hoping we can finally find out 100% what are is. Not my favorite of the franchise but still a great film.
