Silent Night, Deadly Night III: Better Watch Out! (1989)


Directed by Monte Hellman
My rating: 1.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Lionsgate)

Blind girl with psychic powers volunteers her time to try to contact man in a coma, who just happens to have the surgically reconstructed brain of the killer from the previous movie. Man awakens and goes on killing rampage. Since it's Christmas Eve, the girl goes to her grandmother's remote country house. Man follows her there and kills everyone but her. There is a lot of mumbo jumbo about ESP and psychic powers. The killer is a scrawny guy with a ridiculous brain in a plastic bubble on top of his head, but is indestructible and takes down guys twice his size. Old reliable Robert Culp is a cop and the only person who makes sense. Poor effort from (former) cult director Monte Hellman.
