Movie Review: “THE STRANGERS—CHAPTER 3” ends the trilogy, not a moment too soon
The good news is that CHAPTER 3 is something of an improvement on its predecessors; the bad news is that it isn’t nearly enough of one.
The good news is that CHAPTER 3 is something of an improvement on its predecessors; the bad news is that it isn’t nearly enough of one.
It can’t be called a missed opportunity, but as its title indicates, all concerned seem more enamored of the kiss-kiss than the bite-bite.
Raimi laces this tense emotional rollercoaster with plenty of his trademark aggressive style, taking every opportunity to play things to the nasty/icky hilt.
Ryan Prows' cops-and-bloodsuckers thriller is a visually stunning and timely comment on institutional violence, derailed by a meandering plot.
Unfortunately, while some of the atmosphere carries over from the original, dramatic interest, and the fear factor, are largely lacking.
