Watchers 3 is the 1994 sequel to the 1988 horror film Watchers directed by Jeremy Stanford.[1] Starring Wings Hauser, the film is loosely based on the 1987 novel Watchers by Dean Koontz. Produced by Roger Corman, Watchers 3 was shot entirely on location in Peru.
Plot
A top secret experiment spawns two highly intelligent life-forms: Einstein, a golden retriever with an IQ of 175; and the Outsider, a deformed monstrosity that exists to kill and to avenge its creators. When the Outsider escapes into the jungles of South America, the government sends in Ferguson and some ex-military convicts to catch the beast. But what starts out as a high-speed chase ends in carnage. Only Einstein knows the Outsider's motives, and only the canine can outsmart the creature.
Release
This sequel did not receive the benefit of a theatrical release as the original did. Instead, the film went straight-to-video. The film was released on a DVD by New Concorde Home Entertainment in 2003. The film is notable in that many reviewers remarked how the plot copied the Arnold Schwarzenegger film Predator.
