    • Our take on the Halloween III: Season of the Witch [Blu-ray]

    Halloween III: Season of the Witch is the 1982 third entry in the Halloween series, and it drops Michael Myers entirely. A doctor (Tom Atkins) and the daughter of a murdered toy salesman uncover a mask maker (Dan O'Herlihy) whose Silver Shamrock novelties are built to kill the children wearing them on Halloween night. It plays as a paranoid science-fiction body-horror film rather than a slasher, which is why it split audiences on release and why it has since drawn a cult following. The Blu-ray suits series completists, anthology horror fans and anyone who wants the odd one out of the franchise.

    What reviewers say

    Viewers who revisit it tend to call it the boldest and most original film in the series, and a strong standalone sci-fi horror story. Many who expected another Michael Myers film were disappointed, and the pacing draws complaints even from fans.

    What people mention
    • ConceptPraisedFans single out the killer-mask plot and the Silver Shamrock jingle as the film's most memorable idea.
    • Michael MyersCriticisedSlasher fans resent that the franchise's masked killer is absent entirely.
    • PacingCriticisedViewers say the middle drags before the finale and the conspiracy unfolds slowly.
    • EffectsMixedThe practical gore is admired, but some creature and mask effects look dated.
    • PerformancesPraisedDan O'Herlihy's quietly menacing industrialist and Tom Atkins's lead get consistent praise.

    About the Halloween III: Season of the Witch [Blu-ray]

    Halloween III: Season of the Witch is the third feature in the Halloween series. It has little connection to the previous two films.

    The story centers on a psychotic killer who is a scientist, played by Dan O'Herlihy. He creates a brand of satanic Halloween masks that kill the children who wear them.

    Questions and answers

    Do I need to have seen the first two Halloween films?
    No. The story is unrelated to the Michael Myers films and introduces new characters and a new threat.
    Is Michael Myers in this movie?
    No. He does not appear, which is the main reason the film divided audiences on release.
    Is it a slasher film?
    Not really. It is closer to science-fiction body horror and a conspiracy thriller, with gore but few stalk-and-kill scenes.
    What is the story about?
    A doctor investigates a mask company whose Halloween novelties are designed to kill children who wear them.
    Who directed it?
    Tommy Lee Wallace, who also co-wrote the script with Nigel Kneale, though Kneale took his name off the final film.
    Is the Blu-ray worth it for collectors?
    For series completists and anthology-horror fans, yes; it is the essential oddity of the franchise. Slasher-only fans may want to skip it.
    Where is the Halloween III: Season of the Witch [Blu-ray] cheapest?
    At Barnes & Noble, for $19.99, as of our latest check.
    What do buyers say about the Halloween III: Season of the Witch [Blu-ray]?
