Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

John Gaines "Deathstalker 3" is a film that is completely unavailable on DVD for some reason, and is solely remembered for its one redeeming feature-it made for a great MST3K episode. The film is dominated by its main character, the mythically unappealing Rogue/Redneck dual class "Deathstalker" played by John Allen Relson. Deathstalker fails at both stalking and making his enemies dead and mostly wanders around with some whiny women looking for the mythic Mexican city of horse dung and cheap stucco. His opponent is the dreaded bald guy "Troxartes", who can bring dead people back to life as unhappy jobbers about 9174384328637743 centuries before TNA Wrestling did the same. The movie's only somewhat appealing character is a throaty vegetarian gal who appears for only five minutes but informs the audience that POTATOES ARE WHAT WE EAT. This was particularly tragic as I'm sure the film's production budget would have bought some nice steak fries if they had decided not to make it. Nevertheless, there are actual (terrible) fight scenes and (stupid) things happen, making it slightly superior to Carnival Magic.

sbm2006 I rented this movie because I caught it's predecessor on cable. Hercules and Xena fans would love Deathstalker 2, which somehow, despite it's second-rate acting from everyone but its star, was so bad it was good. I was expecting to see more of the same but sorry..this one is just plain bad. The acting is bad, the story is bad, the swordplay is bad, and the whole movie looks as if it were shot with a plastic bag over the lens of the camera. Part of the previous movie's appeal was the way it was constantly poking fun at itself. There's none of that here. And I've had shoes more charismatic than the star of this flick, who hasn't learned that taking B-movie dialogue seriously just doesn't work. Do yourself a favor and give it a pass.

tudor_gurl I have to say that this has got to be one of the most ridiculously funny movies I have ever seen. It seems the lead actor graduated from the Kevin Costner School of Funny Accents. One minute he's Australian. The next he's British followed by some cowpoke accent I could barely decipher.The best way to watch this movie is the MST3K version that is download-able off WinMX. The comments made by the characters on MST3K make this horrid mess viewable, and adds a few extra laughs along the way.By the bye, whoever decided that they use the infamous line "It's potatoes is what we eat!" should be caught and summarily beaten within an inch of their lives with a wet noodle!

drew_starr I know that some films are made not to be taken seriously and they are just for laughs. Naked Gun, Airplane and Top Gun spring to mind. However somewhere there has to be a line drawn and Deathstalker crosses it. When i first saw this film i didn't know it was third in a series, I bought it second hand without a cover. However, after trying to watch this I was scared at how bad it was. I don't mind films being made for a laugh and just being done to take the micky out of itself, that's one of the the things that makes films like Cherry Falls some of my favorite films. This one however just makes me cringe because of how badly it is made. I couldn't finish the film I just couldn't take anymore of it. I lost the plot half-way through because it just seemed to fizzle out. After steeling myself for a second attempt I still couldn't find it. It was very, very hard going to watch. The acting wasn't even second rate, it barely deserves third rate. As stated I couldn't find a plot, I really lost it half way through and had to force myself to keep watching. Its not even that I don't like the style of film, I actually love the medieval/fantasy type of film. Conan the Barbarian and Red Sonia are examples of this type of film that i really love, its just that Deathstalker doesn't have a decent script or actors like those films do. I later tried watching this film with MST3K insulation and even with the help of Joel and the Bots I barely made it the whole film, and was none the wiser to the plot. I love MST3K, and this is the only MST3K that i nearly didn't watch to the end. Truly a candidate for worst film of all time. Watch only if you really have literally nothing else to do at all, and watch with MST3K insulation, that makes it almost bearable. A grudging one out of two.
