I’ve been reading through this thread and there has been a lot of discussion about the Halloween movies. I personally am a big fan of Halloween 3 and it scared the cr@p out of me when I was a little kid. The story behind Halloween 3 departing from the Michael Meyers theme is very interesting. Wikepedia explained that “John Carpenter and Debra Hill wanted to turn the brand of Halloween into an Anthology series with a new Halloween season-themed sequel each year. According to the director, Tommy Lee Wallace, "there are enough stories in All Hallows Eve that you could go on for years and years and years doing fresh ideas and stories about this phenomenon and this was supposed to be the first in a long series". After the film's disappointing critical reception and box-office grosses, the antagonist character of Meyers was brought back in Halloween 4".
