This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

I gave it a 7.5 out of 10

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Blistering performances.

The take of this film on the werewolf myth, interpreting it as a separate biological race, is refreshing and intriguing. The casting is good, and especially the female werewolf protagonist suits her role well. It contains many bizarre, and at the same time visually beautiful and imaginative scenes, and lots of stunningly beautiful aerial views of Sidney, which in themselves makes the film worth a watch. The only downside is that the progression halters somewhat at the end, and the film seems unsure of how to actually end. I would still say this is one of the best films in the "howling" installment.

I've interviewed the director of this movie, Philippe Mora, and he's a top bloke, but this is not his finest hour. The thin plot is that werewolves have evolved from Tassie Tigers down under and are being hunted to extinction. Set mostly in Sydney, Australia from the 80's so you have to forgive it a lot for the fashion, music, sfx etc. How they signed up Barry Otto, Frank Thring, Barry Humphries and Michael Pate is a miracle. Picture Alien marsupials bursting out of bellies and into pouches. #nuffsaid

Howling 3 1987This was more of stand alone as it's as it own story and back plot and it not connected to last two moviesand I really don't know what to make of this movie as this is even worse then second one,I actually found the movie very boring from start to end Even the werewolf were not interesting at all and those scenes were so god dame awful , it was so bad , it wasn't so bad that it funny , it just worst effects I have seen for a werewolf movie.saying that I did laugh out , when the nuns turned up at the party , the make up effect for nuns were unbeliever bad . The acting in this was also really bad , everyone felt limed they forcing there lines, tell the truth I think they knew the movie would suck , so they could not bothered to there best. Ionly seen movie last night , I forgot how it ended or my brain is trying to block out of memory for goodI going to give this 2 out of 10

To say "Howling II:...You're Sister's a Werewolf" did bad would be an understatement. Critics savaged it, horror fans were mad, everyone else was confused as to what kind of movie they had seen, and the movie tanked in the box office. So, did director Philippe Mora own up to the movie being a disaster? Of course he didn't.Like many directors whose movie was poorly received, Mora said it wasn't his fault. Nope, it was the studio and the producer's faults, as they compromised his vision. Well what luck for him-the studio wanted nothing to do with the series after "Howling II", so Mora could now make a second sequel, and this time, he could do it in his vision. He could show those studio execs what's what, and he could show the world that the failure of the previous movie wasn't his fault.It didn't work out that way.Oh sure, like "Howling II", it was a bigger hit on video than it was in theaters, and it's gained a cult following, but also like that movie, it was poorly received by horror fans, critics and the general audience alike, and did poor box-office, only this time it killed any chances of another "Howling" sequel getting a theatrical release. So, is it bad like everyone says it is? In a word: yes.Having nothing to do with the prior movies, "Howling III" revolves around a strange Australian race of werewolves that are part man, part wolf and part marsupial. You can't say there isn't any originality in this movie. Anyways, Jerboa (Imogen Annesley) is trying to escape her tribe after her stepfather attempts to rape her. Traveling to the city, she meets Donny (Leigh Biolos), whose the assistant director for a horror movies called "Shape Shifters 8." Donny offers her a role, and they soon fall in love. However, it soon becomes apparent that something other than her lycanthropic tendencies is acting up, and to make matters worse, Professors Beckmeyer (Barry Otto) and Sharp (Ralph Cotterill) are after them. Then there's that Russian Ballerina Olga (Dagmar Bláhová).Like "Howling II", much of the humor here falls flat-the only times I laughed are when Olga kills her ballet partner and the poster for Mora's "The Beast Within" hanging on Donny's wall. In fact, the humor here is even worse than the prior effort's. Say what you will, but at least "Howling II" tried to come off as a horror movie. Here, Mora goes for a full on satire of horror movies, but none of his jabs at the genre (such as a fat, Alfred Hitchcock looking director played by Frank Thring, and a few parody movies and a tribute/spoof of the original's conclusion) hit the mark. As it's been said a billion times, balancing horror and comedy is a tricky thing, and there's nothing wrong with opting more for laughs. However, when most of the jokes are bad, why should you care? When Dame Edna and a town called Flow (ha ha) are all you got, and even werewolves disguised as nuns can't be interesting, your movie has problems.It also doesn't help that only Annesley stands out as far as acting is concerned. Everyone else here ranges from mediocre (Biolos makes for a bland love interest) to terrible (Thring is really annoying and all around bad as main director Jack Citron), and they don't really do anything to warrant a reason to care about them. To make things worse, Mora's direction is even worse this time. Watching this, it was hard to believe that this came from the same director of "Mad Dog Morgan" and "Communion", as he shows none of the skill those movies offered.Needless to say, the four sequels that followed it went straight to video, and it somehow manages to be slightly worse than "Howling II." At least that movie had moments of inspiration. This movie will mostly just inspire fits of boredom.
