Halloweeen 3 is one of my favorite horror movies. I couldn't stand the other Halloweens, the usual slasher that never dies really is tited. But this one was different. That catchy song. I can imagine McDonald's handing out glasses in their Happy Meals and instructing the kids to watch for something special to happen at a certain time on Tv and they have a chance to win a Playstation 2 or a that new XBOX. Things like that really scare me, because it almost seems like it could happen. But those never dying mad slasher movies never scare me. I think they should of changed the name so people would not ssociated it with the other Halloween movies.

I am so happy to see alot of people love Halloween 3. This is Tom's second best performance(Night of the Creeps is his best). This is the best Halloween of them all. I also liked 1,2 & 7 alot. Stacey Nelkin was wonderful and looked great in her love scene. Dan O'Herlihy is also great as the villain. The other part I love is the theme for the masks. It is a very catchy tune. I also agree with others that this movie is bashed because there is no Michael Myers. It does not matter in this movie, it is great without that character.

There was a really good film screaming to get ouit, trapped in the shambling carcass that was
Halloween 3
.
It was Nigel Kneale's screenplay, hacked to pieces by director Tommy Lee Wallace (although it's been said that it was at least partly producer Carpenter himself, leaving first-time director Wallace to carry the can).
Watching the film when it first came out, my first wife and i saw definite elements that had to have been Kneale's and watched them come to nothing - or worse, be trivialised by horror cliches.
A freind, the late dark fantasy writer and editor Karl Edward Wagner, once introduced me to the author of the novelisation of the film, who said he'd stuck as closely to Kneale's original script as he could, and i almost wept as he told me what had been there originally and didn't wind up on the screen.
(For those who don't know Kneale's name, i recommend you look up the "Quatermass" films and check them out)
