Ghoulies III, released in 1990, is the third installment in the popular horror-comedy series about evil little creatures that wreak havoc on unsuspecting victims. This movie stars Evan MacKenzie as Jonathan Graves, the owner of a struggling magic shop who unwittingly unleashes a group of malevolent Ghoulies upon his unsuspecting customers.

The film opens with a group of teenagers who visit Graves' magic shop, hoping to experience some authentic spells and incantations. Among them are Larry (Kevin McCarthy) and his girlfriend Nicole (Eva LaRue), as well as punk rocker Mauler (John R. Johnston). Graves, eager to make a sale, introduces them to a mysterious black book that promises to grant their deepest desires. The book provides instructions for a ritual that will open a portal to another dimension, but Graves warns them of the potential danger.

Despite his warning, the group decides to perform the ritual, which involves using a mysterious crystal and an ancient chant. As they recite the incantation, a group of mischievous Ghoulies suddenly appear, drawn to the magical energy. The Ghoulies, who are small, impish creatures with sharp teeth and a taste for human flesh, quickly begin wreaking havoc on the group and the other customers in the store.

As chaos erupts, Graves and his young assistant Alexandra (Hope Marie Carlton) scramble to contain the situation and prevent the Ghoulies from wreaking further havoc. However, as the Ghoulies continue to multiply and wreak destruction, it becomes clear that the only way to stop them is to confront them head-on in their own dimension.

Ghoulies III is a unique blend of horror, comedy, and campy 90s-style special effects. The film's focus is on the Ghoulies themselves, who are both frightening and comical in equal measure. The direction is hammy and over-the-top, with a tongue-in-cheek tone that never takes itself too seriously. While the acting is often wooden and the dialogue is cheesy at times, the film succeeds in delivering a fun and entertaining experience.

One memorable scene involves Larry, who is transformed into a werewolf after the Ghoulies bite him. The transformation sequence, which involves cheap special effects and an over-the-top performance from McCarthy, is a standout moment that encapsulates the movie's sense of fun.

Another standout sequence involves Graves and Alexandra's journey into the Ghoulies' dimension. The dimension is a surreal, otherworldly landscape that is both unsettling and impressive in its scope. Once in the dimension, the duo must confront a final boss in the form of an enormous Ghoulie queen, leading to a climactic battle that is suitably over-the-top.

Overall, Ghoulies III is a fun, entertaining B-movie that delivers exactly what it promises: evil little creatures wreaking havoc on unsuspecting victims. While it may not be high art, it's a film that succeeds on its own terms, offering plenty of laughs and thrills for horror fans. If you're looking for a campy, over-the-top horror-comedy that doesn't take itself too seriously, Ghoulies III is definitely worth a watch.

Ghoulies III is a 1991 fantasy movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 34 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 3.9.
