Bittersweet ending to a trilogy that really feels like how most stories end. It's a rather dull and meningless journey with friendly faces along the way, looking for a purpose after the good old days ended.
3 from Hell can be surprisingly touching sometimes when it just hits the viewer one or two scenes that manage to humanize literal serial killers. I really wish it ended up being a much slower movie all the way through, instead of the second half introducing a new conflict without much purpose.
Still what this movie made me feel as a person who liked both previous movies, is how I imagine the characters feeling. Some of the story revolvs around looking for some new meaning in a world that is hostile, empty, melancholic, and no longer familiar. The whole point of this movie is that we're seeing a family of maniacs going through all this.
I think it's a deeply flawed piece to conclude the story of the beloved characters who remained until the end, but one that manages to find some closure to make piece with the days that are gone and lets our antiheroes go.
The (I dare to say.. touching!) relationship of Otis and Baby must be my favorite thing in the movie, I couldn't have imagined it without the two of them. Sid Haig sadly didn't manage to appear for long in his last ever movie, and his replacement is obviously someone who can't ever compete, but Foxy's character is a likeable addition to the team whose main story focuses around finding his place within the family.
Must see for those who like the series, even with all its flaws! Ironically, we all expected something better, the same way our heroes did with their own lifes, and I can only feel respect for that.
