Product: Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982)
Rating: 5.0
Stands on its own
This movie has nothing to do with the original story but it stands on its own as a creepy horror film. While everyone was on the slasher bandwagon John Carpenter wanted to go another direction. This could have been the beginning of a great series of different Halloween stories. Instead the Michael Myers character has been way overused and tarnishes the legacy. There should have been no other Michael Myers films after the 2nd one as they were all horrible. Tom Atkins gives the best performance in any of the Halloween movies. I am watching this on Amc right now and it is Halloween night.
