Witchcraft III: The Kiss of Death

Sure, this is a standard, cheese ball, demon-lover story with a little tease, but the saving grace of this flick is lovely Lisa Toothman shines charms throughout, but saves the best for last. This is one of those actresses who incites one thought all the way through: Damn, I hope she has a nude scene! And she doesn't disappoint. What a joy to see this girl-next-door type flaunt her Big Naturals before the closing credits! Lisa deserved many more bad movies with award winning nude scenes. Her big scene is all the more satisfying because of the cat fight she has with her witch rival. Lisa, thank you for leaving us this legacy! I recommend fast forwarding to just the scenes with Lisa in them

Witchcraft III: The Kiss of Death (1991)

* 1/2 (out of 4)

William Spanner (Charles Solomon) has put the events from the previous film behind him and he's now trying to make it as a lawyer. All is well until an evil warlock named Louis (Domonic Luciana) turns up and wants to turn Willy's girlfriend (Lisa Toothman) into his sex slave. Don't you just hate it when horny warlocks show up? This third film in the series is the third one in a row that couldn't even score a two-star rating from me but as bad as this thing is, at the same time I couldn't help but get a few kicks out of it. This film has quite a few bad moments in it but thankfully they get a few laughs so this almost enters the "so bad it's worth watching" category. One hilarious thing involves William defending a young black boy accused of raping and murdering his neighbor. The early scenes of William trying to get him to talk about what really happened are just downright hilarious and especially a sequence where the boy breaks down into his mother's arms. This is followed by several scenes taking place in a bar where William and Louis become friends by doing a wide range of things but it usually ends up with Louis giving women the "kiss of death" mentioned in the title. The incredibly bad special effects involved with these "kisses of death" could almost kill the viewer. Also, the final showdown for the rest of humanity has our two warlocks wrestling around on the ground in one of the most unrealistic fight scenes that you'll ever witness. For what it's worth, Solomon is actually better than what you'd typically see in a film like this and I also enjoyed Luciana as the bad guy. Toothman finally takes her clothes off towards the end of the picture and we also get Leana Hall playing the evil warlock's woman and yes boys, she gets naked too. WITCHCRAFT III certainly isn't going to win any awards but there are enough laughs here for bad movie fans.

The classic struggle between good and evil for the love of a woman. Sometimes sexy, mostly dull though. Film has a good enough premise, but the treatment is botched. Bad acting & effects, shoestring budget and inept direction are its main faults. Unrated; Sexual Situations, Violence, Adult Themes, Nudity, and Profanity.

So far my binging the Witchcraft series isn't going well, the first two were embarassments and for this reason I went into part three expecting the worst.

After watching it I can say it's the best one so far! But it's still pretty dire.

We meet William from the first two movies, he's now grown up and fighting off memories of his origins. But when a rival Warlock appears on the scene who has set his eyes on Williams girlfriend he is forced to embrace his past.

Badly made from start to finish Witchcraft III is undoubtedly a mess but was welcome relief after the first two films.

Here is hoping it's all uphill from here.

The Good:

The kiss of death!

The Bad:

Poorly made

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

Warlocks don't understand personal space

Will Spanner (Charles Solomon Jr.) is now an attorney and not living a life as a warlock. But, another warlock named Louis (Domonic Luciana) steps into his life and is messing things up. He has committed murder using Spanner's car in hit and run and is after his girlfriend Charlotte (Lisa Toothman) as well. Guess he's going to have to get his warlock on and fight this guy.

Usually three strikes means your out, but not in this series. An endless parade of more sequels has followed. While I do believe Rachel Feldman may have been the most competent director so far in the series, you still gotta have something to work with. The film gets silly and nonsensical. Not to mention the effects while once again used sparingly (which is good) are pretty cheesy.
