      Audience Reviews for It's Alive III: Island of the Alive

      • Oct 31, 2011

        May the devil vomit over stop-motion effects present in several of the worst sequels ever conceived. One extra star for being <u>laughably</u> bad and <u>unintentionally</u> hilarious. 31/100

        This one sets a different tone compared to the first two films in the series and doesn't take itself too seriously. It's got some nice gore and some bizarre humourous moments, and you also get a better look at the mutant misfits and even fully grown ones too. It is a pretty stupid film though and quite juvenille, so not a classic here, but it is fun.

        A whole tropical Island of monster babies is visited for maxiumum horror and hilarity. Like a Jurassic Park sequel, men with guns become the hunted ones against the hoard. Fun and cheap.

        worth it only for Moriarity's performance, which is as idiosyncratic as one of Walken's; not a good movie but the least logy of the series
