Warlock III (1999) from Tuna

Warlock III: The End of Innocence (1999) is a direct to video -- the third, and I hope last installment of Warlock.
College student Ashley Laurence learns that she has a family home that she is welcome to look through before it is torn down. As she was adopted, and knows nothing about her biological family, she decides to spend the weekend there, and convinces her dorm friends to go along. The friends include her boyfriend, her best friend, Boti Ann Bliss as a guitar-playing friend who secretly wants her, and the July, 1996 lapin-lady of the month, Angel Boris, as a femdom, who drags along her boyfriend.

It doesn't take the Warlock long to arrive, and start plotting. Seems all he has to do is get Laurence's friends to give her to him, then he can kill her as a sacrifice to Satan. Bliss was clearly there to give some occult resistance to the Warlock, and Boris was there to show her tits in several scenes. The entire film is slow-moving and predictable, but the nudity was nice, and sprinkled throughout the film, so I stayed awake through the entire thing.

The Critics Vote

The People Vote ...

 

IMDb guideline: 7.5 usually indicates a level of excellence, about like three and a half stars from the critics. 6.0 usually indicates lukewarm watchability, about like two and a half stars from the critics. The fives are generally not worthwhile unless they are really your kind of material, about like two stars from the critics. Films under five are generally awful even if you like that kind of film, equivalent to about one and a half stars from the critics or less, depending on just how far below five the rating is.

My own guideline: A means the movie is so good it will appeal to you even if you hate the genre. B means the movie is not good enough to win you over if you hate the genre, but is good enough to do so if you have an open mind about this type of film. C means it will only appeal to genre addicts, and has no crossover appeal. D means you'll hate it even if you like the genre. E means that you'll hate it even if you love the genre. F means that the film is not only unappealing across-the-board, but technically inept as well.

Based on this description, this film is a D+.
