Creepshow 3 is watchable, not great. the animation as stated above is terrible and all 5 stories are pretty dull, the best probably being the segment with the call girl killer. the people responsible for the movie managed to intertwine the stories successfully enough but the acting wasn't up to much.
If you're gonna watch it, don't think of it as a Creepshow movie (in no way can it match the genius of King and Romero) but enjoy it on its own merits (however few there may be). The first two Creepshow movies had the benefit of that campy 80s look and feel, this more "modern" venture feels out of place, cheap and nasty in comparison.
I did however hear that King and Romero were potentially collaborating on a Creepshow 4 though.... which I would love to see happen.
Creepshow 3 may be under average flick, but there are worse out there, and who knows, you may really like it.
