I'm a fan of horror movies, especially the genre of flicks which compile several short stories in one movie, such as Creepshow, Tales From the Crypt, and Twilight Zone the Movie. Because of this, I was eager to see Creepshow 3. Unlike most movies of its kind, Creepshow 3 features 5 stories which are actually loosely interconnected to make up one larger "story". Also, some of the stories seem to be more gory, while at the same time, a little more silly than those of the first two Creepshow movies. Story 1 is about a girl who's body becomes more disfigured each time her father clicks the TV remote. To make matters worse, her family's ethnicity is altered each time as well. Kinda silly. Story 2 is about a loser who unknowingly acquires a talking radio which has a mind of its own. The radio acts as an adviser which promises to bring fortune to his life. But things are never so simple. Story 3 involves a sexy prostitute serial killer who encounters a very strange customer with very strange needs. Story 4 is about a nutty professor who mysteriously bags a young gorgeous blond fiance. How did he do it? His two favorite students decide they will get to the bottom of this mystery, by any means necessary! Story 5 features the most arrogant, obnoxious character I've ever seen. This doctor is extremely insensitive to everyone, including his own patients. Consequently, he is haunted by a former victim of his insensitivity. Most amusing of the 5 stories I think. I was a little disappointed with Creepshow 3 because I expected it to be more like the first two. There seemed to be an attempt to put a little "humor" into the stories, and for me, humor and horror dont mix. Still, I don't feel I wasted my money because it was somewhat entertaining, and I needed it to complete the Creepshow trilogy. Not as good as Trilogy of Terror, Tales From the Hood or any of the other movies I mentioned if your looking to be scared, but worth buying if you like those type of movies.Read full review
PLEASE stay far far away from this movie. Save your money, and time watching this one. I just finished watching this movie and it was pure agony and painful the whole time. I was actually looking at the clock to hope it would finish soon. It is Nothing like the first and second Creepshow. This movie makes absolutely NO Sense whatsoever. I really liked the first two, so I was deeply disappointed. Thank goodness I rented it free with a coupon, and didn't purchase. This movie isn't even worth the time to pop popcorn for. Take my advice and stay far away. Save yourself from the torture. Since part III was this bad, I WOULD RECOMMEND waiting for a review to read on the next one, if they do come out with a 4th. Home shopping network will be better entertainment for you than watching this garbage. This is absolutely the WORST MOVIE I ever seen in my entire life. I will recommend this movie for frisbee playing, doorstop, and a paper weight. Don't even get it to complete your collection. Pretend it dosen't exist. In other words, if you see this movie for sale or playing anywhere, RUN!!! Run Fast!!!Read full review
This movie is already listed in the worst 50 movies of all time!! Seriously, imdb did a poll a few months back and CREEPSHOW 3 CAME IN 36TH PLACE(google "creepshow 3 worst movies of all time" to see for yourself. Horrible acting, horrible screenplay, horrible direction, just plain horrible!! The writer and director of this film also bought the rights to "George A. Romero's Day of the Dead", and they made "Day of the Dead 2: Contagium"- which if your one of the 3 people that saw it, realize how bad that film was too. These pathetic film makers need to stop buying the rights to Romero's great films and coming up with absolute crap sequels!! Hell, go to the "CREEPSHOW 3" web site and when you click on forums to see all feedback left on the film, it states.."Due to the questionable contents posted in this forum, a unanimous decision was made to have it closed". In other words- they makers were embarrassed to have people see the horrible reviews from the viewers on it own web site!! Sorry to babble-CREEPSHOW and CREEPSHOW 2 were classics- but this film sucks!Read full review
Well it's certainly not a patch on the original Creepshow 1 & 2. There are 5 short stories, inwhich each story links in to each other, in fact it seems a bit confusing at first. There are a couple of good little shocks in 'Rachel The Call Girl' and 'Professor Daytons Wife', but othere than that, I wouldn't bother! When they make sequels, they should really stick to the original movie set-up (i.e the Creepshow comic book with the pages turning over to tell the next story) - this doesn't. It's more like 'Tales of the unexpected' to be honest. Disappointing, sorry!
For years Ive been a fan of Creepshow 1 and 2. And when Creepshow 3 finally came out a few years back I rented it and loved it. I know it got alot of negative reviews due to the fact that George Romero and Stephen King werent involved and it got a straight to DVD release. But I rather enjoyed the movie, why I bought it. Creepshow 3 deals with 5 stories of terror and blood. Alice, The Radio, The Call Girl, The Professors Wife, and Haunted Dog are the stories this time around. And this time the stories are connected. Very cool horror movie. Maybe not as good as 1 and 2, but You can still appreciate it as a good horror flick.
