Halloween 3: Season of the Witch (1982)

The Odd-Ball Film of the Series

The only real problem with this film is that is has zero to do with Michael Myers. It is a monkey-wrench in the film series. What Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982) really is: a completely different story and it should have had a different movie title - that is the only real problem with the flick! If the movie was entitled "Season of the Witch" (without the Halloween 3 added to it),  "The Halloween Masks" or even something like "Silver Shamrock" then people might not critique the film so harshly and rate this movie higher.

The story itself is not entirely all that bad - it's actually pretty good if you think of it as watching just another horror film and not in the context of another Michael Myer's story.

Remove your "Michael Myer's thinking cap" put on your "just another horror movie thinking cap" when you watch this movie - you will enjoy it a lot better that way I believe.

Also this makes Halloween 4 actually Halloween 3 as far as Michael Myers is concerned.

7.5/10
