Creepshow 3 is the third installment of George Romero and Stephen King horror anthology series, this time we have five new short stories.
The first story is called "Alice," in which a stuck-up, snobby teenage girl thinks she is too good for her neighbourhood and family. One day, when
she gets home from school, Alice’s father is trying to figure out how to program his new universal television remote. Every time he tries to change
the channel, Alice (Stephanie Pettee) slowly begins to transforms into an ugly mutated creature which is her true form.
"The Radio" is about a lonely security guard named Jerry (AJ Bowen) who lives in a whorehouse. He soon ends up buying a radio from a homeless
guy (Elwood Carlisle) on a street corner, unaware that the radio is actually possessed by a female spirit. The radio begins to drive Jerry mad by
telling him what to do and how to better his life, even going as far as getting Jerry to kill his next door neighbour’s boyfriend in cold blood before
asking Eva (Elina Madison) to leave town with him.
Next we have "Call Girl" where a murdering, cold-blooded psychopath prostitute named Rachel (Camille Lacey) kills anyone who wants to show her
"companionship.” Late one late night she gets a client (Ben Pronsky) that is a blood sucking vampire who decides to teach her a lesson she will
never forget.
In the fourth story. "Professor Dayton's Wife,” a nutty old professor (Emmett McGuire) likes to play practical jokes on his students on the university
campus. One night, his two best students arrive at his house for dinner and to celebrate the professor’s recently marriage proposal to an unknown
fiance. At the last minute, though, the professor has to quickly step out to pick up the wedding cake, leaving the two students alone with his
somewhat weird and robot like wife. The students believe that the professor has finally created his very own real life synthetic looking robot to
attend all his personal needs, so they both agree to take apart his wife limb by limb and try to figure out how the professor made her, and put her
back together again before he gets home.
At lucky last we have "The Haunted Dog,” about snobby and conceited Doctor Farwell (Mike Dalager) who gives a homeless man (Ed Dyer) a
contaminated hotdog. Soon after taking a bite, the homeless man dies in front of the doctor, who doesn't even bother coming to his aid. The
homeless man seeks revenge and starts haunting the doctor every day and night.
When I heard about Creepshow 3 was in the making, I was so excited to see what short stories they were going to come up with this time as well
as looking forward to the cartoonish horror stories in between the movies. Unfortunately, Creepshow 3 has to be the worst of the whole series
and is a major let down, sad but true. Unlike the first two Creepshow films, the cartoons were very poorly done and not as entertaining as the
other Creepshow movies. Plus, all five stories were connected with each other in some type of way, which was a bad idea to do and didn't make
much sense at times. One minute you see an actor in one story and then later on in the movie he or she would appear in the background of
another story. Fucks me what they were thinking they decided to do this. I rather they just left it like the previous Creepshow films instead.
If you are a diehard fan and worship the first two installments, I highly recommend you stay away from this title, because you will end up using this
DVD as a coaster. Those who just enjoyed watching the previous Creepshow films, well this film you could end up enjoying greatly. But personally
this film was a waste of time and money to make, and certainly a waste of money to buy.
