A meh concusion to a uneeded trilogy
“It’s as if you never existed”
So after Tubi finally gave their copy subtitles, I was finally able to complete the One Missed Call trilogy. As a fan of the first, I must say that these sequels sure are a mess. Granted this one is better than the second , but that isn't saying much.
Like this is almost a good movie. The stuff with Asuka and Emiri is very well handled and Ahn Jin-woo is a lovable character. I also love how creative and cool the kills were here and the effects for them are awesome.
Sadly, a majority of the time is spent with a bunch of completely unlikable characters that only exist to die. Not helping is the deeply convoluted explanations for things that only raise more questions than answers. It all culminates in a finale that feels straight of the Care Bears or My Little Pony, and not a horror movie meant to be taken seriously.
Overall, this third entry was a mixed bag and I doubt I will be revisiting this trilogy ever again. Definitely will rewatch the first movie, but I will gladly avoid rewatching both sequels. Like both sequels aren't terrible, but neither are good or worthy of a rewatch either.
