Product: Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982)
Rating: 4.0
"season of the witch" is a fine movie and could have given the franchise new life and made it one of the best horror series ever
after getting roped into the halloween II film,mr carpenter tried to take the franchise in a new direction with "season of the witch" in the hopes of every year coming out with a new and different horror movie under the halloween banner.for the first try he gave us this little tale of supernatural terror as a "worlock" who is planing to teach the world what halloween really means. dan o'herlihy(driping evil at every smile) steales the movie as the "warlock" toy maker about to play the greatest joke ever on the children of the world. this also features one of the best (and most bothersome you will ever see or hear)ads that plays a nasty "head game"(you must see the movie to understand) and the f/x's are aimed at gross out and they work.all said this is a noble try at something different that just wasn't what the public wanted at the time,but it still is lightyears ahead of the other movies that came out that year. and remember "happy halloween" and "it's still on the third channel, please it's STILL ON THE THIRD CHANNEL< FOR THE LOVE OF GOD TURN IT OFF!!!!! it really is the night that "NO ONE CAME HOME"
