For the most part, Sometimes They Come Back ... For More avoids any connection with either of the first two films or the Stephen King short story – there are no ghostly bullies haunting people, no banishment rituals involving severed fingers. Instead, almost as though it is determined to be as removed as possible from anything that has gone before, this film turns the story into an effective variation on The Thing from Another World (1951). Instead of demons, we have the concept of two immortal brothers, sons of the Devil, fighting across the ages. The film is underdeveloped when it comes to explaining this backstory but the rest of it is conducted with a considerable degree of atmosphere. There is a particularly eerie and gripping journey down into the tunnels with a remote-controlled camera. There are some good twists, notably when the least likely member of the group dislodges their hat. Director Daniel Berk makes striking visual contrast between the white-on-white of the polar base and the orange-lit flashbacks in the desert. Everything falls apart and gets a little too hokey and B-movieish at the end, and the build-up never quite pays off, but the journey there was promising.
