Like the second but better. Duane has a better comedy role and the actor actually does OK. It's overall funnier The pace is better. It's a ridiculous plot. There's also more being said in the story. Like how the one freak has an easier life because he lives a richer life (or seems to). Like how Duane is the outcast amongst the freaks, which was a point made in the second but it's far better in this. The cops have roles like confused and paranoid which emphasises the freaks show.
It also does the job of putting the whole 3 movie in perspective.

Companion piece to the previous and takes place immediately after. They, of course, open up by replaying the sex scene of the century from the previous film - like don't worry we remember it, it's pretty hard to forget! Our merry band of deformed oddities go on a roadtrip in search of a doctor to birth the newest member of the family. It's pretty much the same as the previous movie (cheesy, fun, filled with crazy moments and a bunch of cool practical effects). Same aesthetics and style, almost as though they were filmed in one go. It doesn't feel like the end of a trilogy though, as there's not really any conclusion to the story so there's room for a sequel. Annie Ross dancing and singing in the school bus was an event and I love her character. Little Hal was hilarious during the birthing scene and I laughed pretty hard at the huge head girl's poem. Perfect ending once again, the small speech was empowering.
I loved the trilogy it was a blast. To anyone who loves B-movie comedy horror this is gold!
