Death Whisperer 3

The funniest horror movie I've watched

Oh my god this was hilarious even without comedy being one of the genres, because it was so bad! Towards the end I was in full on tears from laughing because what happened there?

Let's start with the positives, because the horror - was horrifying. Lots of jumpscares, a decent amount of gore, I'd say it was better than movie two as far as the scare factor goes.

Another thing which I've always appreciated about this series is the emotional bondage to the characters - which, once again, they nailed. Good on them, because if they hadn't done this properly, the movie would have literally no redeeming factor. The family and their extended family is what keeps the plot interesting even when it isn't.

Because the plot, wow, the plot - if the last part was two movies in one, this was like 10 in one. So much happening! Seriously, I was clutching my stomach reeling from laughter the more I watch, it wasn't even scary after that. Just for reference, the first film worked because it was set in a single location and focused entirely on their family, not despite. Granted, there was more interaction between the siblings in this one than the last, it was still not enough. You don't have to go on adventures every other movie to make things interesting.

One minute they're at home, the next a forest, abandoned village, horror cave, I don't get it. There are so many new "one-and-done" characters who add nothing to the plot, and the explanation I've been craving for three movies was laughable. Lady is out here haunting because she hates love?

The story was so incredibly weak, I couldn't explain how all over the place it was even if I tried. It's not a terrible movie by any means but watching the last two has given me newfound appreciation for part one. If you must watch for continuity purposes, you can do it, but I'm sure there are other scarier and more coherent horror movies you can watch. I've learned that horror movies are never completely logical or coherent, but I've got to say, there's definitely got to be ones better than this.

Adventures of Yak continues.. Yak vs Many Spirits, this time.. A Good Sequel!

A Very Good & Interesting Sequel to the first two movies in this Franchise.

(You need to watch all the prequel movies to know the main characters n their story, though the ghosts that haunt the family n the ghost stories are different in each movie).

***
In all three movies in this franchise,
A vengeance seeking, century old Ghost haunts and attacks a family of 3 sons and 3 daughters, residing with their parents in their countryside home,
possesses one of the gals in the family
and one family member (eldest son, Yak) tries to find ways to ward off the evil spirit, thereby protecting his family.

***
There are Three Time periods in this Story:

The Ghost Story -- When she is alive, during war times, how she suffered & became an evil spirit.

The Witch Story -- After few years, when the evil spirit attacked a village, it is warded off but later, a witch tries to invoke it again.

Main Story (Yak's Family Haunting Story) -- The Witch tries to harm the family and invokes the evil spirit for her selfish wishes. Also, the family faces the Ghost haunting along with many other forest spirits' attacks -- Liked the adventures of Yak along with his brothers and the Suspense element here.

Story and Direction are Good.
Visuals and Cinematography are Good.

Story Narration and Screenplay are lil confusing with the time periods.

But all the haunting scenes are Very Good.

***
First 30 mins of the movie is Very Good -- Ghost haunting the lil sister n she is kidnapped by the Witch.

Next, Eldest brother Yak with his brothers and Mentor, went on an adventure deep into an unknown forest to find a way to save his lil sister.

Unlike the second movie, which has similar adventures of Yak in a forest, the adventure scenes in this movie are More Interesting.
Here, there are many forest spirits haunting, creating hallucinations and attacking them.
Haunting Scenes like The Underwater Fight with the Water Spirits, Another Attack by the Forest Spirits n One More Attack by the Spirits inside the cave, are Good.

Last 30 mins is fight with the Witch and the Ghost and saving the family.

At times, the characters are lil confusing bcz the witch, her follower lady and the ghost, all three have similar makeup, Silly Me, hehe.

Also, you can see the main ghost n its haunting only in the first 15 mins and the last 15 mins of the movie.
Remaining are the hauntings by forest spirits or the troubles caused by the Witch.

***
As a comparison with the two prequel movies:

First movie is simple and direct horror family drama.

2nd movie has some adventures of Yak but not that captivating.

3rd movie has family drama, More Adventures of Yak, More Ghosts to fight with and a lot of Suspense too.
Hence, More Interesting to Watch.

*** Few Silly thoughts:

1) Shooting the ghost with enchanted mercury bullets or attacking it with fire is reasonable for a horror movie.
But there are some scenes where the little gal bites a spirit or tries to beat it with stone (like how a human being is hurt physically) -- it looked silly and beyond a horror movie logic, haha.

2) Character Yak -- actor Nadech -- he has to strip in every movie, I guess and Director made sure of it with silly situations, hehe.

3) Aigoo, it's funny how Every year (from 2023, each yr, one movie in this franchise is released), different female ghosts haunt one of the gals in Yak's family only, leaving other families in the town 🤭

Aigoo, P' Yak has got into a lot of ghost troubles ;)
Ghosts can't really resist the handsome brothers n their beauty, I guess ;)

***
My Rating is 8 /10.

Horror genre lovers will love this movie.

In this Franchise, liked the movies in the order:
3 = 1 > 2
