The demonic clown, Killjoy, who takes murderous revenge on whomever his summoner wishes uses a group of college students as bait to lure in a college professor who summoned him, but didn't name an actual victim for him to kill.
Watching a film like Killjoy 3 viewers should admittedly know that they are not getting into a film on par with something like The Exorcist. It's just supposed to be a fun way to kill eighty minutes, to have some laughs and to enjoy a few cheap thrills. With that in mind, Killjoy 3 is easily the most successful entry in this franchise. With this, Puppet Master: Axis of Evil and Demonic Toys 2, which were all released this year, Full Moon Entertainment is on a definite comeback trail. It, Killjoy 3, plays up to the strengths of all of their horror films of yesteryear - a memorable array of villains (most notably Trent Haaga, who just seems to be really enjoying his role), a few standout death sequences, elements of nostalgia, a bit of whimsy and a fairly quick pace. Killjoy 3 isn't going to set any new precedents within the horror genre, but it gets back to what early Full Moon films were all about. They were just amusing little films that were a blast to watch.
