Review of Beyond the Door III (1989) by Allan C — 22 Jan 2017

A group of students take a trip to Eastern Europe with their professor to witness a sacred pagan ritual, but quickly learn that their professor indents for them to be sacrificed at said ritual. The professor also takes a special interest in one virginal co-ed, since a virgin sacrifice is something special for bringing Satan to life.

Most of the film takes place on a possessed train and includes a lot of low budget gore, which is kind of fun if that's your sort of thing. The story however is pretty still when the main suspense of the film involved whether the virginal co-ed will have sex before Satan returns to take over the world.

This film is by no means a good horror film, but for fans of cheap Italian horror, it does have some appealing elements. There is some vivid color photography, quirky European settings, and there's also some kind of fun use of low budget miniature sets.

I enjoyed this film, which actually bears no connection to the first two "Beyond the Door" films, but I would not recommend it for anyone who's not a fan of Euro Horror.
