Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member I read about this in Fangoria and Gorezone in the late 80's and it looked so demented and gory that I didn't know if it would actually be released in the UK. But, quelle horreur, it was released and uncut as House 3, part of the House franchise. On being fried in the electric chair, serial killer Max aka Meat Cleaver Max promises revenge on the cop who sent him there, Lucas McCarthy. Max means it too after making a pact with the Devil which means that he can wreak havoc from beyond the grave. Two of cult cinema's biggest icons Brion James and Lance Hendriksen star as Max and Lucas making this unmissable entertainment. The effects have to be seen to be believed. They pushed the boundaries regarding how far they could go in those days when it came to taste and decency. The effects are gross which is music to the ears of any discerning horrorhound. There's also a depraved and sick sense of humour at play within the movie which makes it even more likeable. This film has nothing to do with the House series of movies but was just given that moniker in the UK so that more people would rent the movie. It was actually released as a stand alone movie in the US called The Horror Show. A great movie that history has treated very well with the ever excellent Scream Factory releasing it all spruced up. And it deserves that kind of release. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Solid 80s' horror film that could have been another version of Shocker but at some point was called House III. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member A far better movie than Wes Craven's similarly themed 'Shocker' which came out the same year. It's not a particularly good slasher but it does the job. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews
