Halloween III: Season of the Witch released only one 12 months after its predecessor, however the 1982 film was quite the departure for the series, as it is the only entry within the series without Michael Myers. It isn’t even a slasher movie; because the title suggests, Halloween III is more of a sci-fi movie with witchcraft. It was intended to be the primary in an anthology of films. It received poor reviews when it debuted in theaters, though it was being in comparison with Michael Myers slasher movies. It’s a part of the series in name only, really, however it’s actually a reasonably awesome film that many fans appreciate and revel in these days–you just must view it as its own thing, somewhat than a part of the broader Halloween slasher series.
The Limited Edition Steelbook mirrors Shout Factory’s excellent 2021 Collector’s Edition that is barely $13.49 at Amazon as of December 12. Just like the first two movies, that is an excellent native 4K restoration from the unique camera negative–approved by cinematographer Dean Cundey–with Dolby Vision and HDR10.
