Howling III

I first saw this in the early 90s on a vhs. Revisited it recently. This third part is the only PG-13 rated entry in the Howling film series and a terrible one. It has annoying flickering lights n screamings. The werewolves costumes are a big lol. None of the kills are shown properly n ther is zero gore. It has lots of shaky cam during the attack scenes n fast cut editing, that one cannot make out what is going on. Since its a PG-13, there is zero nudity but has bushy hair on * n pubic side.

Howling III (1987) was a big improvement over the last film, part two. But by all means it's not a great one either. Philippe Mora directs once again but this time with better results. The film takes place in Australia and the werewolves this time are marsupial in origin. Filled with a not of in jokes and tongue in cheek humor, this film is not that bad but the problem is that the film get's a little to glad handy and it collapses upon itself. Oh well, Mr. Mora should know better next time because he almost got it right. A plethora of aussie film stars have supporting roles as well, A big step over part two but nowhere as brilliant as part one. Maybe next time! Slightly recommended. C For some reason, the director went Mad Max and made part three P.G.-13. He should have stuck to his guns and made it an R rated flick. What happens when you take a film of this genre and try to conform it for the major market? You'll lose money and produce a mediocre film. xxx

While some people say this is the worst entry in the Howling series, I actually think it is one of the best of the sequels following the Joe Dante classic. Let's get one thing straight, this is an intentional camp film and takes great glee in being as cheesy as humanly possible. Here we are introduced to a new breed of lycanthrope from the Land Down- Under, a were-creature based on the long extinct thylacine. I don't want to give anything in the plot away but I would of really preferred if the movie focused more on giving us lots of werewolf action instead of focusing almost entirely on a certain romance-subplot. So in closing, I feel you should sit down with your friends and have have a laugh while watching this campy film.....

At least the soundtrack of this one is more lively, now they are no longer werewolves, they are marsupials, and it is not that it became even cuter, the nuns, it seemed that there was a little pig between them, more fun than horrifying, in fact, it never was horrifying, not 40 years later ... The transformation during the ballet was fun ... And babies the cutest little things in the world, very adorable ...
