Your First Look at Terrifier’s David Howard Thornton as a Twisted Mickey Is Here
SHIVER ME TIMBERS!
Disney icon Mickey Mouse is about to take a dark turn. Actor David Howard Thornton, best known for his terrifying role in the horror franchise Terrifier, has just been spotted as an unhinged and twisted version of the beloved mouse character.
In this latest revelation from the world of public domain horror, fans of the genre are going wild. For those who may not be familiar, public domain horror refers to a specific type of filmmaking that relies on classic characters and stories that have entered the public domain. This allows creators to reinterpret these old tales in new and often unsettling ways.
Thornton’s involvement in this project marks an exciting turn for the genre as well. As the face of Bill Skarsgard’s demonic clown, Art the Clown, in Terrifier (2018) and its 2022 sequel, he has already proven his ability to bring a sense of unease and dread to any role.
The new Mickey Mouse film is currently under production, but details about the story or release date have not been shared at this time. However, fans can rest assured that with Thornton on board, it’s going to be one twisted ride.
It’s worth noting that this announcement comes amidst a flurry of other public domain horror projects involving beloved childhood characters like Winnie the Pooh and Peter Pan.
