A definite improvement over the first two, with less blood and occasional dark humor., 24 December 2002

Ricky (Bill Moseley), from part two (and brother of the killer Santa Claus from part one), awakens from a six-year coma, stalks a blind woman (Samantha Scully) whom he has a psychic link to, and kills anyone who gets in his way. Meanwhile, a cop (Robert Culp) and doctor (Richard Beymer) try to stop him. A definite improvement over the first two, with less blood and occasional dark humor. My evaluation: ** out of ****.
