I watched this again recently and liked it even more than I remember. It is dated and fairly cheesy, but there is something cool about it.

The original idea bout making 10-20 Halloween movies, new one each Halloween, all different stories,,,ala Masters of Horror was great...then Michael Myers came and everyone wanted more of him, so #2 had him in it as well...I personally thought #3 was crap, but it was different and it made me hope that #4 would come out the next Halloween and NOT be about Michael Myers also, be totally diferent story...

I think it is the best one

I love this movie, and Im not afraid to admitt it, it just gets a hard rap because of the whole Michael Myers thing.

i loved - still love halloween 3

the series went into the shitter after this one..

halloween 3 worth a watch
 

it wasn't even anything about the other 2 or other ones after and didn't
make any sense. but they have had friday 13th on the last few nights.
halloween 5 & 6 . on amc and pumpkinhead ontonight on scifi.but no freddy
krueger.

See my post above...the idea was to have a different story each time, each Halloween...as for Freddy, Nightmare 1 and 2 were on amc during the day I guess...and I fell asleep watching #1 the other night, check out the schedule on amc

Halloween triv.

Apart from the name, halloween 2 and halloween 3 do have a connection.

Dick Warlock now retired an actor/stuntman, was the stunt Michael Myers in H2 and the bad guy (robot?) in the beginning of H3.

Just in case it comes up in the survivor challenge somewhere!

i never knew that bout the whole diffrent story each halloween........i think that would have worked out kinda cool.....shame they tried it out with the 3rd one and the left it.....cause i liked the myers thing and its all there fault

I honestly dug Halloween 3 more than I did 2, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. And it's not even about Myers. Love that god damn movie.
