Description

THE NIGHT NO ONE CAME HOME.

 

Dr. Daniel Challis and Ellie Grimbridge stumble onto a gruesome murder scheme when Ellie’s novelty-salesman father, Harry, is killed while in possession of a Halloween mask made by the Silver Shamrock mask company. The company’s owner, Conal Cochran, wants to return Halloween to its darker roots using his masks – and his unspeakable scheme would unleash death and destruction across the country.

 

Slasher franchises rarely align with the vibe of what makes a Nightmare Alley Film Society pick, unless it is the long-maligned, offbeat, and kooky HALLOWEEN sequel... "The One That Doesn't Have Michael Myers."

 

Now iconic in many ways: the three masks, the television jingle, and Tom Atkins (THE FOG, NIGHT OF THE CREEPS) flirting and drinking his way through a black magic meets science fiction apocalyptic "joke on the children". HALLOWEEN III: SEASON OF THE WITCH is the perfect spooky, but fun movie to see with an audience this Halloween season.
