When I first saw this movie about ten years ago, it gave me nightmares because of the scene where the kids face melts due to the Silver Shamrock mask he is wearing. That and the crazy jingle that perforates the film are the only things that stuck with me. There is a reason why I didn't remember anything else. This movie is so bad, I couldn't remember anything else.

The dialogue is terrible. The acting of the main performers is okay, considering what they have to work with (at one point the main character has to fight off a robotic arm broken off from an android), but outside of the leads, the acting stinks. The plot is rather far fetched for a horror film, teetering on the edge of sci-fi.

It didn't bother me that the film had little to do with Michael Myers (he has a cameo on the television screen in a bar). I think the idea of having a bunch of Halloween movies about different aspects of the holiday is great. However, it was poorly executed and that is why it failed.

The only reason for watching this film is for the "Silver Shamrock" song set to the tune of London Bridge. I sing that song every once in awhile and when someone recognizes it, an instant bond is formed because we have both set through the "horror" that is HALLOWEEN III: SEASON OF THE WITCH.
