Ok, yes it's bad. But it's bad in the wake up in the morning and grab a candy bar and dip it in hot fudge for breakfast kind of way. It's indulgent, unrepentant horror sludge, or in other words--a delicacy for those who like cheap gore. The effects are good, the acting is surprisingly unterrible, and the premise is ridiculous. Werekangaroos, I shit you not.

I was hoping for some killer koalas or a wallaby walloping but alas it was just werewolves with pouches. This movie started off pretty good. Then about halfway through something changes. The movie gets incredibly boring. Like it becomes an ABC Family drama. It's all about nurturing their babies out in the wild and avoiding their natural predators (humans). There are some really good scenes in this, particularly in the beginning...

Featuring surprisingly not bad performances from *most* of the cast & some fun effects throughout, it's nowhere near as bad as Howling 2- but it's still a mess. Characters make nonsensical choices left & right, entire chunks of plot seem to be just missing, the tone is all over the place, very little of what's happening makes sense, and the editing is very choppy. It's also, for the most part, painfully boring. Adorable marsupial baby aside, there's not much to see here.

It redeems itself a bit when instead of going with usual action heavy finale the movie switches gear into depicting the leads living a peaceful secluded life. Turning this from a the typical monster movie into a pro-lycanthrope film. But it is too little too late, cause if that was the intention all along the focus and tone before was wrong. It also doesn't excuse it from being such poorly made rubbish, that's (unintentional) hilarious at times, and even more unforgivable very dull.

This movie is terribly made and pretty incomprehensible, but I had a blast watching it.

An attempt at locating the werewolf film in Australia, with marsupial werewolves, a sense of humour and combined with an environmental message...the result is as awkward and cinematic as a wet fart. Neither does it work as a good film or as a guilty pleasure; bar the birthing sequence, seen in the documentary Not Quite Hollywood, it feels as if the film should be hidden behind the cupboard in embarrassment of its tediousness.

It really should be seen if you love terrible movies, but be forewarned: After watching Imogen Annesley put her baby in her pouch, I didn't get an erection for six weeks.

Utterly bizarre. Valuable only as a curio.

Liked this when I was a teen, but on a recent re-viewing found it much more boring than remembered. Still, it's amusing in some bits.

Best in the series, including the original.

There's nothing really wrong with the idea of a Werewolf Dundee movie. Well, no more than any of the Paul Hogan sequels anyway. But in practice, once it gets past the fun-ish meta setup it just becomes so... boring.

Very difficult to rate. Howling III was clearly made with a degree of self-awareness that the second film either lacked or was far too ambiguous about, and for that I think it can be forgiven a number of sins. Considering the meta-narrative running throughout, the "kitchen sink" approach to tone and story development, the relentlessly unpredictably bad dialogue, were-marsupials, Hitchschlock and wolf-nuns... I just can't help but love it.
