Doug Bradley seems to be a little bored in this film. Gone are the dulcet tones and howls of rage. The regal stride through the smokey cracks in the walls is there in a token effort. Some of his lines are wonderfully deranged, but he sounds like he's a little tired of it.

For me, that kind of ruins the movie. The story is good and the cast does a decent job. Notable was the performance by the "Angelic"(sp).

Movie stays true to the details of the previous movies and builds on them. That was a nice touch.

I found Pinhead asleep at the wheel and driving it in to the canyon of forgettable movies.

I went to this movie expecting another "Species." Despite the hacked plot, tired gimmicks, and so many cliche'd characters "gun-ho general" etc.... This movie works on a certain level. The special effects were dazzling and breathtaking.

The movie obviously doesn't take itself too seriously and because of that, its a treat to watch. If you love action movies, then I believe you'd appreciate the subtle campiness of the film. They even recycled the old LA ravine that has been used in countless car chases. It gleefully leaps through plot loopholes, trumpeting that it knows that you know whats going to happen next.

A really fun movie. The music was performed live in front of a camera, no overdubing. I was amazed at how well arranged, choregraphed and performed the pieces were. I only wish that the DVD master had cleaned up the sound more and brought out better frequency response.

Jimmy Stewart was his usual charming self. Its hard to hate a movie with Jimmy in it. Even better, Jimmy actually sang and did quite well with the song. The first half of the movie had me laughing out loud!
