While I wasn't particularly impressed with the 2017 "10/31" and the 2019 sequel "10/31: Part 2", then I still opted to sit down and watch the 2022 third movie, on the off-chance that it would be an improvement upon the previous two anthologies in the franchise.
I wasn't harboring much of any grand expectations or hopes though. But still, since I hadn't already seen "10/31: Part 3" before, then of course I opted to give the directors the benefit of the doubt.
First of all, I have to say that I really liked the movie's cover which was a cool tribute to the classic scary comic books from back in the day. I really liked that, and it was definitely a plus in my book.
The stories in this third anthology were even worse than in the previous two. So you're not in for anything grand here. I sort of blanked out and zoned out during the monotonous pacing of the anthology, and the individual segments just didn't deliver much of anything worthwhile watching.
Needless to say that I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie. But I will say, that while the stories were bland, then some of the acting performances were actually fair enough.
Visually then "10/31: Part 3" was okay. I mean, it wasn't top of the line special effects, for sure. But the effects served their purposes well enough.
"10/31: Part 3" was the weakest of the three movies in the franchise so far. And not really worth spending 75 minutes on watching. I managed to suffer through it, but if you were to ask me tomorrow what the stories were about, I could maybe relay one of them or so. A very, very forgettable anthology.
The movie's "Creepshow" inspired cover was the best part about the ordeal.
My rating of "10/31: Part 3" lands on a three out of ten stars.
