5 Essential Damien Leone Movies To Watch That Prove Ye’s “genius” Accolade for the Director

Binger

The word genius is often associated with Ye, formerly known as Kanye West

. It is an accolade that he has earned over the years curtsy of not just his eye-opening lyrics but also the execution of his art, be it in the form of music videos or styling. It is also a term that he takes much pride in, hence only attributing to someone after much contemplation.

Ye’s carefully rationed use of ‘genius’ was only threatened by Damien Leone, who recently released his movie Terrifier 3

and earned a ‘genius’ badge after a ‘great’ one from the Grammy-winning rapper, perhaps after he introspected these 5 essential movies of Damien Leone.

Terrifier

Now a hit horror franchise, Damien Leone dropped the first bomb that was the first Terrifier

movie in 2016. The movie was brimming with Leone’s classic style, as it used minimal dialogues and heightened symbolism to cement itself as one of the most terrifying pieces of art in modern times. 

Terrifier 2

Almost half a decade later, Damien Leone decided to add another layer of mastery to the previously successful Terrifier

. The first movie, a cult classic as it came to be, turned Art the Clown into the stuff of nightmares, and the second movie took all that and much more, elevated it with excellent production and richer backstory to pull forth another terrifying extravaganza.

All Hallows’ Eve

In All Hallows’ Eve,

Damien Leone debuted his centerpiece, Art the Clown, and proved he does not merely flirt with horror; he marries it in blood and shadows. From its grainy VHS aesthetic to its unrelenting tension, the film pays homage to classic horror while forging its own gruesome path, making for yet another shrill-inducing horror movie

.

Frankenstein vs The Mummy

In Frankenstein vs. The Mummy

, Damien Leone pits two of horror’s most iconic creatures against each other in a blood-soaked clash that blends gothic tradition with modern brutality. The film dives into the grotesque, with Leone’s practical effects shining in every decayed limb and mangled body, elevating what could have been mere camp to visceral, bone-chilling artistry. One of his earlier works that spoke magnitudes about just how much of a genius he is with his hands, Frankenstein vs. The Mummy,

is a must watch.

 Terrifier: The Short Film

‘s brutal simplicity and relentless pacing prove that Leone does not need a feature-length runtime to cement his genius; just a few chilling minutes and an unforgettable villain can help him usher praise from one of the most renowned rappers in the world. The film is another testament to just how much of a cinematic maestro Damien Leone is, as he once again, with a few dialogues and amplified surroundings, rested his case.
