All three films in the franchise have very basic plots, but I believe "Erotic Ghost Story 3" has the strongest storyline. This is probably the only aspect in which this film triumphs over the previous two installments. This is a beautifully shot film but doesn't quite match Part 1's lighting and cinematography or Part 2's star power and wackiness. With those comparisons aside, "Erotic Ghost Story 3" is a fine addition to the franchise and a solid film in its own right.

Of course the highlight of the film is all the extended sex scenes that are very well choreographed with a sense of purpose. "Erotic Ghost Story 3" has just as many scenes of gratuitous sex and nudity as the previous films. This film also has several comedic moments, which is another element to expect from the series. Of course much of the humor is as raunchy as one would expect from a Hong Kong CAT 3 film of the early 90's. There are also some solid scenes of swordplay choreographed by Phillip Kwok of Venoms and "Hard Boiled" fame.

"Erotic Ghost Story 3" is a very solid sex/spirits/swordplay flick that is recommended to fans of the series or anyone that is interested in Hong Kong CAT 3 mayhem.

The plot is basic: Pauline Chan falls for some guy whom falls prey to the evil side and therefore intervenes to save his soul. A pretty even plot which the director obviously wrote during a lunch break, but still better compared to the previous two installments. The plot is actually very similar to 'Chinese Ghost Story', where the hero loses his way and ends up lost in the woods only to stay the night in an abandoned hut with lots of pretty horny ghosts. Unfortunately, his soul or something will be stolen, so he must be freed with the help of a wacky monk.

There is little nudity in this movie compared to the previous two installments, but this is replaced with a half-decent plot compared to the other two movies, and a bit of over-the-top wonder-fu. Personally, only watch this movie if you have been satisfied with the previous two movies; otherwise you might not find what you are looking for.
