Picking up from Chapter 2's ending, with the unfortunate Maya having still eluded the now-revealed killers, the inevitable happens and she is taken captive, her only option to stay alive being to become one of the murderous gang whilst the town's hidden past starts to unravel. There is a difference between atmospheric and slow, and here the film crawls along with astonishing pauses in the delivery of dialogue in the first act in particular, demonstrating the thinness of the material once again. There are some positives - some atmospheric lighting, a decently-staged jump-scare early on, brief and sudden acts of violence to keep the viewer awake and a fair sequence with a caravan - but little of consequence happens in this empty and largely uninteresting trilogy-capper to a weak series.
