Somewhere along the line I anaged to miss something abaout this movie.I thoght the idea of a sequel was to create a movie which at least broght back the hero/heroine of the others and maybe perhaps the same villain or at the very least the same kind of plot. The only thing Halloween 3 has in common with its two predecessors is that it is a horror movie...everything else is all change...and its all the worse for that.

Halloween III: Season Of The Witch is a rather odd movie based once again around the time of Halloween. The plot is simple but rather stupid to say the least and the movie rests solely upon the level and inventiveness of the gore it displays. We have a mad business mad who gets fed up with something or other and decides to pay the world back using Halloween as an excuse. He makes Halloween masks, but inserts a 'chip' of some kind inside them made from bits of Stonehenge which will have an 'adverse' effect on the wearer. You see, when these are worn and a particular television show comes on, the masks will kill the wearer in the most horrific of ways. Only two outsiders know this and try to stop it happening...

There really isn't much to say about his movie, it literally is bad on all fronts. Script, acting, directing, plot, camerawork...all ad, with the movie's sole grace being the special effects(well they are ok) which isn't too surprising because gore seems to be the only reason for this movie's existence. The mask causes such things asa workers face to melt off and bugs to burst from every vailable orrifice...just to give you a picture of what this movie offers as entertainment. Couple all the bad things with the movie's insistence on playing the television show's annoying jingle over and over and over again. The point was made the first 100 times, we heard the message, now its driving us insane!

Everything else? Sucky and really there is nothing to recommend here at all. Maybe Caroenter knew ths and decided to cash in on the Halloween franchise again to make a quick buck even though it has NOTHING to do with the other movies in the series. It wouldn't surprise me with him judging on recent form and efforts.
