"Things 666" is actually the seventh installment in the long-running "Things" franchise from producer David Sterling. This is Joe Sherlock's third foray into the series, and I believe in many ways, one of the strongest of his trilogy of films.
As with all horror anthology flicks, "Things 666" is broken into separate stories; one dealing with two sisters and the fallout from something their dad dug up underneath the house, one about a mysterious doll who shows up at a bar and brings about sinister visions of the past and one showcasing a cam-girl who becomes entangled in a problem from beyond the grave.
Skullface Astronaut regulars Jackey Neyman Jones (Manos: The Hands of Fate), Jewel Siren, Melody Berg, Rob Merickel and Tonjia Atomic are on-hand yet again in the leading roles, and all bring a touch of fun and energy to their roles. Joseph Voegele, another indie-filmmaker, also turns in a wildly enjoyable performance as a conspiracy theorist. And special mention needs to be given to genre legend George Stover (Night Beast, The Alien Factor) for his terrific portrayal of "Louis," who has quite a deadly secret. Stover, the screen legend that he is, is always a welcome addition to any flick!
As always, Joe's cinematography and editing are top-notch. His films always have a crisp, clean look to them and production values are high for a micro-budget shocker. There is also a great melting-man effect near the end of the movie that is a treat for gore hounds!
If you are a fan of the "Things" series, this is another frightfully fun installment. And if you're a Skullface Astronaut fan, "Things 666" will not disappoint!
