For this third sequel to
Charles Band's pointless but modestly successful
Gremlins rip-off, the writers ignored the previous two installments and brought back the character of Jonathan Graves (
Peter Liapis) from the original film, though inexplicably transforming him from a naïve dropout occultist to a streetwise cop. He is forced to do battle with his former girlfriend Alexandra (
Stacie Randall), who has escaped from an asylum and is busily conducting human sacrifices in order to summon a demon once created by Jonathan's Satanic dabblings. The title creeps are shoved even further to the background than the previous chapters -- not a bad thing, really, since the effects department still hasn't managed to make them look like anything but inarticulate latex puppets covered in goo. Sadly, what's left is a tired cop-vs.-serial-killer scenario that's even less convincing than the monsters themselves. Z-movie journeyman (and
Roger Corman favorite)
Jim Wynorski injects the usual dose of titillation and B-movie in-jokes, with the expected results.
