Their latest track, "A Work of Art," created for Terrifier 3, has already ignited a frenzy among horror fans and metalheads alike. But it’s not just the single that’s wreaking havoc; the accompanying music video has elevated the thrill to a whole new level of terror.

The video, which debuted in select theaters after special screenings of Terrifier 3, perfectly encapsulates the raw, unrelenting energy that defines both the band and the film.
For Charnas and Ice Nine Kills, horror isn’t just a genre – it’s a lifestyle and an endless source of inspiration. The single’s violent riffs and bone-chilling lyrics are an ode to cinematic terror, capturing the twisted thrill of the Terrifier franchise. “The film and our new single, ‘A Work of Art,’ reflect the same twisted, unrelenting energy that fans of both Ice Nine Kills and the Terrifier franchise thrive on,” he added.
As if the collaboration alone wasn’t a dream (or nightmare) come true for horror fans, Ice Nine Kills took things one step further by releasing a music video that doesn’t just accompany "A Work of Art" – it transforms it into a mini horror movie.
