Why do you always mention “dated” as a negative? Shouldn’t a film look and feel like the era it was made/set in? Makes you seem very young. Not meaning this as an insult, just wondering.
Halloween III is the only film in the franchise I like other than the original. It’s an absurd October must-watch for me.I meant that it hasn’t aged particularly well. The original Halloween still holds up today because the story could still happen in the modern day, but Season of the Witch’s plot would not happen in this day and age.
A sinister viral marketing scheme would update the plot nicely. Replace the tv commercials with a “killer” phone app or youtube video. Just lose the ridiculously huge plastic tags 99% of the kids would cut off the mask anyway.
I keep toying with the idea of a video loop running that flashing pumpkin and the Silver Shamrock ads on my remaining analog tv in the window for Halloween.
