Before part 6 was released, this film was the redheaded stepchild of the series (I've always had a thing for redheads though). Three has nothing to do with the Myers mythos utilized in the first two movies, instead it's a stand-alone film that tried to cash in on the fame of the title. Well, it didn't exactly work and most people hated it. I have noticed many people finally coming around and admitting they liked the shit lately. Let's just call it season of the witch and say as a movie it's decent. I thought the whole story was kinda cool really. The annoying lil' Silver Shamrock theme song does grow on you after awhile (though my mom still fuckin' hates it). The concept of killin' masses of stupid kids with these masks on Halloween night has gotta be respected in horror film history somewhere. The soundtrack creeps me out, don't know why. A good story mixing a few cool FX, a weird feeling atmosphere, and the nastiest Halloween mask disasters you've ever seen. Don't pick at the tag on that mask either buddy, hahahahaha, you'll get a laser blasted mouth. Did you have your mask on at the end? Maybe that was the best part. When I saw this thing at the movies when I was a kid, I found it kinda fun. The drill scene was a classic to me then. Nowadays, I just watch for the sheer joy of what it was trying to pull off... epic mass destruction for Halloween's sake. You gotta love those crazy witches huh?
