Burning Flame 3 2008

I was thinking of buying this movie but I didn't really like the first two movies.Didn't the main character or whatever die in number 2?In number 3 the actor who plays main character is back again as a different character I think. I was reading a blog somewhere that said that Burning Flame 3 isn't a continuation of the first 2 so I might buy it next time I go to the video store.
