Halloween III: Season of the Witch was Tommy Lee Wallace ‘s directing debut. I saw it for the first time not long after it left the theaters, and like many other fans I was thoroughly disappointed. When I discovered that John Carpenter’s real plan was an anthology with each years release being a different movie by a different director, I thought “they should have used a different name.” I quickly learned that Martin Harris agreed with me (100). Apparently the name, as well as the deceptive marketing campaign were all the studio’s idea (101-102). I am glad that I got a chance to revisit the movie from a unbiased perspective.
One thing I noticed this time was the amount of homage that was paid to other movies. Of course, there are the many references to the original two Halloween movies; the quiet mannerisms of the automatons, the dark looming “shapes” watching, the predominance of masks, the original film playing on televisions, Dr. Daniel Challis‘s ex-wife is played by Nancy Kyes (the same actress who played Annie Brackett in the first Halloween), and as Harris points out Cochran represents the “embodiment of evil” (104) just as Michael Myers did.
There is also the great connection of Dick Warlock. He played Myers in Halloween II and plays one of the killer robots in Halloween III. I found this great image that shows an amalgamation of both rolls.
The attacking disembodied arm from the Ellie robot plays tribute to Oliver Stone ‘s The Hand (1981), Freddie Francis ‘s Dr. Terror’s House of Horrors (1965), or perhaps Herbert L. Strock ‘s The Crawling Hand (1963). The name of the town and the Ellie robot were both references to Invasion of the Body Snatchers (101).
The deserted motel in Santa Mira, the black lingerie and the old lady in the rocking chair who turns out not to be real all bring to mind Alfred Hitchcock ‘s Psycho.
I love Wallace’s use of various shades of orange and black (the universal colors of Halloween) throughout the movie; the sun setting behind the trick-or-treaters, the glowing flames behind the factory, and even the pumpkin colored goo that emerged from the dead robots. A subtle but beautiful tribute to the holiday that created the franchise.
As the years passed, the curse of the Bridge Hollow Trailer seemed to grow stronger. Residents began to avoid the area altogether, fearing the malevolent forces that seemed to radiate from the cursed trailer. Tales of disappearing children and unexplained deaths only perpetuated the legend and ensured the town's isolation. Attempts were made to remove the trailer from Bridge Hollow, but all efforts proved futile. The curse seemed to protect its dwelling, thwarting any attempts to break its hold on the town. Many believed that the witch's spirit still resided in the trailer, guarding her curse and ensuring it would continue to torment Bridge Hollow. Today, the Bridge Hollow Trailer remains a symbol of fear and despair. The town's population has dwindled to only a brave few who refuse to succumb to the curse's grip. Their stories serve as a warning to those who dare to underestimate the malevolent power that lies within the dark curse of Bridge Hollow Trailer..
