6/10
Not as fun as the first two.

Warning: Spoilers
The hybrid Angel/Human Danyael (Buzzotta) is gunned down at a church rally he is speaking at by a crazed assassin (Brad Dourif, who else?). In the morgue he comes back to life not fully understanding how or why, when he is confronted by Zophael (Spano) the angel taking over the cause when Gabriel (Walken) was turned mortal at the end of Part II. Gabriel shows up just in time to save Danyael and help him escape. This time Gabriel is helping Danyael. A God of genocide is coming in the form of angel Pyriel (Scott Cleverdon) and Zophael must kill Danyael before this takes place and the war in heaven will finally be over. Danyael has frightening visions of Pyriel standing on a mountain of writhing bodies in the films best visual moment. Director Patrick Lussier keeps the action moving and the cast tries real hard but the storyline is wearing thin. Walken as the mortal Gabriel is a blast and makes the film worth watching. This segment isn't as intense as Part II or as interesting as the original. There's still a level of entertainment to be found, but once again don't count on any gore or jump scares.
