Halloween III: Season of the Witch
Directed by Tommy Lee Wallace. US. 1982. R. 98 min. Universal. 35mm.

“This film was unfairly panned. It’s actually the creepiest, most successful Halloween sequel. It has nothing to do with the previous Halloween movies, though. Season of the Witch is about an evil mask maker whose Halloween masks kill the kids who wear them. It stars Tom Atkins as the hero, Dr. Challis, who does a great job, mustache and all. This is a creepy little movie that really should be more appreciated.” (Tommy Swenson, The Scarecrow Video Movie Guide)
