Stupid teens decide to have a party and a killer with a drill decides to be the party pooper. Get the picture?I hated this sequel! Hated it with a passion. Come to think of it, I hate the first one and this one. The only movie I enjoyed was the campy second sequel. At least that movie knew what it was, and decided to be fun. This movie has none of that! This movie was so boring that I was doing other things at the same time. It goes back to the roots of the first movie, and is deadly serious a lot of the time, possessing none of the cheesiness that I loved from the second movie. This movie is really lazy and dated. At this time, slashers were slowly but surely starting to become less and less popular. This movie is an example why! Even though it's filled with gratuitous nudity and sex, there is no suspense what so ever. I love Nudity as much as the next guy, but it doesn't matter if there is no fun to be had. The violence level is fairly high. There are a lot of drills through chests that are pretty bloody. Another problem I had with this movie is the stupidity of some of the characters. One girl is being stalked by the killer and has a huge chance to survive! In lieu of trying to survive, she yells "F**** You!" and inexplicably hurls herself through a glass window, basically letting herself get killed (!) It doesn't help that the killer is a snivelling little wimp. I'm not even gonna mention the acting! They're all terrible! Sounding like they were reading lines off a cue card. The first movie has a cult following (Why I don't know!) and the second movie is lots of cheesy fun! I would avoid this sequel like Ebola and watch the first two! I think the first sucks, but others obviously feel differently.DUD

With part 2 of the series being such an off-the-wall experience (the psycho is a rock 'n' roll singer with a deadly guitar), it's a real shame to discover that the third chapter in the Slumber Party Massacre series is little more than a predictable formulaic slasher.Once again, a bunch of hot girls spend the evening together playing truth or dare, swilling champagne, dancing, and canoodling with their boyfriends (who naturally drop by to join in the fun), only to have their partying interrupted by a demented maniac brandishing a large power tool (a massive cordless drill - one of my favourite slasher weapons).Those familiar with the sub-genre should know exactly what to expect from this effort: gratuitous nudity from the big-haired babes, some lame pranks perpetrated by the boys, plenty of blood (but not really much in the way of decent effects), dumb policemen who won't lift a finger to help, a boring sex scene, a bath scene, and a red herring or two. What did surprise me, however, was that the identity of the killer was revealed halfway through the film rather than being left as a surprise for the end.Still, there are plenty worse examples of the genre out there (this one has a high 'cheese' factor which makes it quite bearable), and at least it sees fit to include a death by vibrator - not something you see very often in a horror film (don't get too excited, though - it's thrown in the bath and electrocutes the victim).

I haven't seen the second one, nor do I plan to since I watched the trailer for it since it was in the "Extras" section for SPM 1. I figured this one would have been good since it seemed that'd it be much like the first one. Not only that, they tried to add some storyline to it, which would have been nice if it was done correctly.The acting is decent compared to other horror slashers, though it was pretty bad in some parts. There is some nice gore as well, which is always a plus. I can't say much here about the movie without spoiling it, but expect A lot of lampshades getting smashed over a psychopaths head and a lot of women running from window to window in an attempt to escape.I would only watch this movie with friends for laughs, other then that avoid at all costs.Dumbest line: "No! You can't kill someone that's just lying there." Why not? He seemed to have a good time doing it to your friends...

Un-pretty girls playing volleyball at the beach decide to have a slumber party at the house of one of the girls whose parents are away. A mystery maniac starts killing them off along with their pesky boyfriends who sneak around outside. Stupid sequel is another step-down for this series. There are some good grisly murders in the first half, and the thing almost seems likable (they even throw in a cameo by a memorable actress from Friday The 13th Part 2), but at the half way point, everything goes downhill. The kids discover dead bodies, call the police (who don't believe their story) but instead of fleeing the house, they stick around. It's not like they are trapped in the house, yet they are afraid the killer is somewhere outside. So what! He might still be somewhere in the house. The girls in this do the the most absurd things, and if they were a little bit smarter, a few of them could have lived. After they blind the killer with bleach, they still don't leave the stupid house, they run around trying to hide from the killer- after he's been blinded! Uggh. Annoying and stupid. Don't even get me started on the scene when the two girls are trying to help their friend through the window. Paper thin story with annoying characters and some wretched dialog. All the characters are bad clichés of bad characters (that cop character was stolen directly from Killer Klowns From Outer Space) and the films explanation to why the killer was seeking revenge is laughable. Cheesy B horror movies are fun, this one just doesn't do it for me. It takes itself way to seriously with it's incompetent script. The first half is not bad though when the killer is stacking up bodies, the cat and mouse chase in the second half is just wretched. One And A Half Stars.
