the original basket case be one of my all time favorite b movie and and have be ever since i first saw it a a kid on cable over 20 year ago . it grimy and low budget style and the completely off the wall storyline and the cheezy but effective splatter fx everything about the original scream underground classic . and luckily director frank henenlotter prove to not just be a one trick pony and by prove he have the skill to be a truly noteworthy cult horror director with other classic like brain damage and frankenhooker . but unfortunately and the beloved mr. h have to go and f. ck up his streak with retarded nonsense like the basket case sequel . i hadn not see either of the sequel in many year and i recall not like either of them but i have this one laying around and figure i would give it another chance to see if my opinion have change over the year . no such luck . in this third and ( thank christ ) final installment in the trilogy the action pick up directly after the event of the equally stupid second film with duane spend some time in a rubber room after try to sew him and his deformed siamese twin brother belial back together . the brother be re disconnect during duane incarceration and he be eventually release . granny ruth ( from part 2 ) take duane to a friend house with the rest of the freak show brood to await the birth of the spawn result from the union of belial and his girlfriend eve . when a duo of bumble cop kill belial girlfriend and kidnap his kid he doesn not take it too kindly and and exact some splattery revenge . grant there be a ( very ) few scene in this entry that be mildly amuse but not enough to call basket case 3 enjoyable on any level . honestly i find both sequel to be retard and un funny and and frankly and unnecessary . when the series move into straight slap stick territory i completely lose interest . i still respect henenlotter a great deal for his early contribution to the b movie horror world but both of these sequel just straight up suck in my book . negative .
