Repentant convict Carl Lucas (Luke Goss) - aka Frankenstein - is a legendary driver in the brutal prison blood sport known as Death Race. Only one victory away from winning freedom, Lucas is plunged into his most vicious competition yet: the first ever Desert Death Race. Through South Africa's infernal Kalahari Desert, Lucas is pitted against ruthless adversaries and powerful forces at work behind the scenes to ensure his defeat. Also, starring Danny Trejo and Ving Rhames, Death Race 3: Inferno is an insane, action packed thrill-ride.

  • This is the 2nd best of the series so far! A terrific casting effort and well developed story that stays exciting with new stunt action and fresh plot sequences that are exciting to watch! The only reason a 3.5 stars and not 4 or higher was the acting, it wasn't bad, but no one really stood out in a leading role or supporting.

  • A very good third part, Different to the other two in good and bad ways, It didn't take itself as serious as the others, The races were good but not as gripping, A nice twist at the end, Generally a whole lot of brainless fun that will please anyone who enjoyed the first two.

  • My my what have we here...another straight to DVD sequel, should I be excited? Well seeing as the first film was actually quite good fun and the second was semi decent fun if rather uninspired, I guess this could be good. Oh but its not...bugger.So the plot, well I'm confused, yes believe it or not I am. According to Wikipedia the second film was a prequel to the original...eh? never got that, and this third film is an alternative timeline sequel to the original that follows on from the second...wha? As far as I see it Statham was Frankenstein in the first film and he escaped. Goss then got burned up in the second and took on the mantle of the MIA Frankenstein character, and now he continues that role into this third film. Well that's how I see it dagnabbit.So the usual videogame-esque appearance/ideas from the previous films remain naturally, that mixed with the stupid 'Gladiators/WWF' style setups and intros. The first two films get away with this but it now grows old plus this film does look much more tacky with obviously less money behind it, outside of the car sequences anyway. RAZOR!!! 'watch out for him, he used to be a killer somewhere', oh so I guess he's the bad guy then, well he must be with a name like that, scary! JOKER!! oh I guess he must...ah you get the picture surely!The acting is of course ropy but we all knew that, you don't watch films like this for acting skills. Impressive how the continuity has been kept with all cast being retained from the second film, adds a much needed boost to the quality. Its a damn good job Tanit Phoenix looks good cos she sure as hell can't act a tall, her fight choreography is abysmal too. In fact all the fight sequences look terrible and badly constructed, clear misses everywhere, so tame and not required.The biggest laugh of the film is a sequence where all these scantily clad women must fight to the death for the honour of becoming navigators to the male racers!. If ever there was a more obvious ploy to appeal to the wank happy young male viewer, well I haven't seen one this blatant for some time. Lots of women in nothing but hot pants and bras looking like something out of 'Xena Warrior Princess' all cat fighting and chopping each other up whilst getting blood spaying over their large plump bosoms.So so so stupid, not really sexy a tall (although clearly meant to be) and utterly pointless. Gee lets attract more fans simply by sticking in lots of half naked women in a mass killing orgy, plot relevance?...what's that mean? Pssst...Katrina from the previous film is one of the winners, oops! what do you mean you didn't see that coming?!So yes its your typical 'Running Man' 'The Condemned' 'Battle Royale' 'The Hunger Games' blah blah blah you know. The problem here is we really didn't need yet another film of virtually the same shit all over again, accept this time its in a desert and with even more extreme camera jumping and editing. Seriously the camera cuts from one action shot to another so fast and often it will make you dizzy.Nothing new, same cliches, same outcomes, same implanted body tracking devices, same visuals, same character types but with more half naked women and new cars (why are some guys driving trucks? surely they would be reeeeally slow in the sand? especially with large gun turrets on the back). Man I lost interest when the gorgeous blonde driver got killed off.Funnily the car interiors are so complex looking I fail to see how anyone could drive them at break neck speed whilst trying to faff around with all the intricate touch screen monitors and controls. But I guess reality isn't on the menu here is it, I could go on but there really is no need. A videogame disguised as a film franchise, watch out for the next sequel set on snowy terrain...probably.'Its a beautiful day to DIE!'

  • Just as good as Death Race 2 and maybe even better, it is like a straight continuance and a really well thought out way to plan the bridge to the famous remake of Death Race with Jason Statham (as 2 and 3 are prequels).

  • Even though this is a straight to DVD release it is plenty good to be in theaters. Being a fan of desert racing this movie just popped to me. Great action, sexier girls, way way more carnage. Definitely an awesome release for an all original movie.

  • I was worried at first being a part 3 , but turned out to be unfounded. Excellent action flick with a twistyish ending. Really really entertaining Luke Goss isn't Jason Statham but he comes pretty damn close to filling his shoes. With the ending I think they can get 1 more good story but should wrap up the franchise with it.
