Creepshow 3: Forças do Mal

I loved the first Creepshow, I accepted the second Creepshow, but I truly detested the third. The first two had intriguing stories and decent acting. The third, had stories that were below par and lame acting. The stories were in no way keeping with the first two movies, and gore, there wasn't enough to keep me even a little interested. The second Creepshow had only three stories, but they were decent. Well written, and pretty good acting. The third, however, feels as though a group of teenagers got together and wrote the stories, and then invited their friends to act for them. Instead of renting the third Creepshow, just rent the original and enjoy.

By the way, when I found out that the guys who co wrote Day of the Dead 2: Contagium were involved in making this movie, I finally understood why it was so bad.

Wow, what a disaster. The filmmakers totally disregarded the previous movies (most likely due to budgetary constraints).

The movie felt like a bunch of rejected Outer Limit TV episodes. Acting, direction, and music were all horrible. I actually felt myself become angry while watching this that the "filmmakers" could destroy such a cool horror franchise.

Ridiculous, just plain ridiculous. The characters didn't even seem rooted in reality, their behavior was just nonsensical and insulting.

I sincerely hope that all the parties involved in this abomination will never be involved in the movie-making process ever again.

Jim Dudelson and Anna Clavel, are pure film-making morons. They have trashed some fine franchises, (Day of the Dead, and Creepshow) Jim doesn't care, Anna is deluded and thinks she is a genius. They slapped the film together in less than 20 days with no name talent and put the Creepshow Name on it, expecting fans to just eat it. Truly, it is just a quick money grab for Jim. Since the original Creepshow and Day of the Dead are owned by Jim's family, he really must hate his family, cause those franchises are worth a lot less now... Don't buy Creepshow III, don't rent it. If you do and watch it, you'll hate yourself. Creepshow III was made by filmmakers who hate horror films and just want your money.

This is easily one of the worst movies I've ever seen to this point in my life. It isn't scary, it isn't funny, it isn't even trying to be good. It is an annoying film and to use the Creepshow name should insult fans of the original films. But anyways, here are the stories:

Alice - Every time a man uses a new remote control, his daughter Alice turns into some slimy, pimply, oozing mess. Eventually she becomes a rabbit. Makes absolutely no sense and is horribly put together.

The Radio - A man buys a radio from a homeless guy and starts to hear voices coming from it telling it to steal some money and kill anyone who threatens him. Better than 'Alice', but drags on way too much.

Call Girl - A prostitute/serial killer gets more than she bargained for when she gets set to claim her next victim. This might be the best of the whole bunch, interesting twist.

The Professor's Wife - Two former students murder the professor's fiancé thinking she is a robot. Silly and pointless, but is better than the first two.

Haunted Dog - Some rude doctor gives a homeless man a hotdog that he picked off the ground. The homeless man chokes on it (I think) and dies. He then haunts the doctor until he dies. I got a few laughs from the miserable doctor played by Kris Allen, best actor in Creepshow III. Nothing special though.

And that's it. Pretty bad movie overall. What annoys me is that throughout each story when something strange or illogical happens, the characters don't react. For example when the radio starts speaking to the character, he sort of shrugs it off and starts speaking back to it like it's something normal. None of the stories make a lot of sense, and add nothing to this nothing of a horror movie.

2/10

I will just start by saying that I have always enjoyed the "Creepshow" anthologies, especially as I watched parts 1 and 2 while growing up, and remembering that there were some pretty good segments in those two first anthologies.

"Creepshow 3" was nowhere near the first "Creepshow" movie anthology, little less like the second.

The stories in this third installment were not really all that interesting, and had only vague hints of horror to them. However, it was really nice the way they were interwoven with one another though.

The acting in the different segments was good though and that at least did help to lift up the overall enjoyment of the anthology.

But the anthology just didn't come off as being all that impressive, and as such it was a less than mediocre movie experience.
