Terrifier 3 star Lauren LaVera refused to film scene after being told what she’d have to eat as ‘human faeces’

With Terrifier 3 releasing today in the UK, many fans will be coming out of the question asking one question.

“Is there anything the people in this movie won’t do?”

The answer – not really, but one of the actors behind this franchise found their own limits somewhere.

Lauren LaVera is returning from Terrifier 2 for the threequel, with her character Sienna Shaw returning after surviving Art the Clown’s massacre.

LaVera has been involved in some utterly gross and distressing scenes across 2 and 3. Following the release of the film’s third instalment, she has revealed one thing she wasn’t willing to do.

In an interview in the new issue of SFX Magazine, she revealed that in speaking to director Damien Leone she had one specific request she refused to do.

One scene in the film features her having to bite through a human intestine after a character goes to choke her with it.

She claims she refused when they said they were going to be filling it with Nutella, to simulate her eating sh*t.

She said: “It was a special effects gag, and I still laugh about it. I won’t say who, but a character uses intestines to try and choke me, and Damien wanted me to bite through it.

“Of course I did, and remember the special effects team were like, ‘What are we gonna use to make it look like faeces? What do you think of Nutella?’

“I was like, ‘Do not ruin Nutella for me, I love Nutella. Use something else!’

“So instead they decided to use crushed cherries, which I don’t think I’ll be able to eat or least look at them the same.

“It was terrible. It was crushed up cherries and dish soap [washing-up liquid].

“I don’t know why they used dish soap, but I was coughing up dish soap for days after that.

“So I bite into it and the gag is supposed to shoot out like a rainbow, and instead it went right up my nose, and that’s the take they used.

“I’m just choking and gagging after the take and then Damien, because he’s so sadistic, he comes over to me, and he’s like, ‘Wait, wait, suffer a little bit longer,’ and takes a picture of me!”

“It wasn’t one of my favourite moments! At that time, I hated Damien, but now I can look back on it and really laugh, and it’s one of my favourite moments from this set.

“We were always cracking jokes.”

Personally, even with a nut allergy, I’d pick the Nutella over the dish soap any day of the week
