Basket Case 3 (1991)
2/10
Three ain't the magic number here
30 August 2014
(18%) The wheels started wobbling with the first sequel, and by the second the chassis is well and truly scraping along the road surface. The movie opens with the grand (and repeated) sight of two latex monsters humping which sets the tone for the rest of the run time as horror takes a back seat for "comedy" to run riot. Many of the crazy creations from the 2nd film return and yet again don't really do anything but clown around, dance and mumble incoherently. There are some half decent ideas floating around, but everything is just so over-the-top and it all feels like a joke taken too far for its own good. The bus sing along scene is toe curlingly hard to watch, but Kevin Van Hetenryck's expression just about saves it. One for die-hard fans only.
