APRIL 21 VHS MOVIE REVIEW : CURSE III: BLOOD SACRIFICE (1990)
This horror/suspense film made in South Africa, originally titled PANGA, was retitled to fit into the CURSE franchise. This is probably the best of the series. During the 1950's, in East Africa, a pregnant American, Elizabeth (Jenilee Harrison of TV's THREE COMPANY and DALLAS), and her friends stop the sacrifice of a goat much to the displeasure of the local witch doctor. He places a curse on her baby and everyone who didn't belong at the sacrifice. When Elizabeth starts getting bad stomach pains, her husband, Geoff (Andre Jacobs), calls the local doctor (Christopher Lee, who acts like he's in a Shakespeare play) to ease her pain. When the doctor and Geoff spot the goat in the front yard and Elizabeth tells the story of how she and her friends stopped the sacrifice, they both know that they are in a world of trouble. Geoff's sugarcane plantation workers refuse to show up for work because they know a curse has been put on the place. The doctor goes to the witch doctor with an ancient artifact and they have some unheard meeting. Strange occurances begin to happen. Elizabeth's friends are slaughtered on the beach while making love by some unknown entity wielding a machete. Geoff finds them hacked to pieces in their tent on the beach. Geoff is nearly killed by the same unseen killer (a real heavy breather) before escaping in his truck (or did he?). The rest of the film depicts Elizabeth's struggle to remain alive as supernatural things begin to happen which may have something to do with the good doctor's hidden agenda. While not overly bloody (head decapitation of actor Henry Cele notwithstanding), one-time director Sean Barton (who works as a film editor to this day) fills the screen with dread and suspense, as Elizabeth must fend for herself and try to fight off the curse. The eventual appearance of Panga (created by Chris Walas) makes him look like a cross between the CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON and one of the HUMANOIDS FROM THE DEEP. The scenery and locations add to the suspense as do the acting talents of Jenilee Harrison, who was never given much of a chance in Hollywood to prove herself as an actress after her TV series ended. After this film she made the erotic thriller ILLICIT BEHAVIOR (1992) and the action film FISTS OF IRON (1995) before practically disappearing into obscurity. A real shame. Also starring Olivia Dyer, Jennifer Steyn and Dumi Shongwe as the Witch Doctor. A Columbia Pictures Home Video Release. Rated R. { text from critcononline.com }
