Art of the Devil 3

A niche movie, part of the "Art of the Devil" franchise. Black magic, gory death which you won't imagine and some twist here and there. This 3rd instalment actually is a prequel to 2nd movie. Back track abit ...

A group of students played a trick on their sexy teacher, Panor. She in turned resort to KongTau to get back to them. Each died horrible death of the worst gore fest. A twist towards the end was that the student who brought them to this place actually was dead already.

So this 3rd movie tells how he got killed ... Another thing to note. The first art of the devil is only a prequel in name, has no connections in cast or story.

Anyway, it was quite disappointing. The gore, blood, bodies parts, pierce here and there, maggot infested living body, etc. But somehow something was missing, maybe the plot was too straightforward and restricted in telling what happened.

Panor who gain possessed of powerful KongTau power by having the 3-eyed God. She was kept inside a xiaolangkeng but was brought away by Ta's family. Ta was the student that was dead and led the rest of the students to death. Ta's ah gong and ah ma enlist the help of a anti-kongtau guy for help. What help ?

Panor and Ta's father had an affair, this made Ta's father poisoned his mother, Duen. So ah gong and ah ma want the anti-kongtau guy put Duen's soul into Panor's body.

Initially, seems like it worked but then if it worked, there will be no show liao.

So it didn't work long enough, Panor started to kill off the family one by one.

The whole kongtau kind of "texas chainsaw" style of slaughter came along in one continous scene. 6/10
