Episode 072 – Halloween 3: Season of the Witch


THE MILKSHAKE BOOM are back this week with Robert’s pick; the black sheep of the ‘Halloween’ franchise…

That’s right, we’re are talking about the 1982 supernatural horror film ‘Halloween 3: Season of the Witch’!

Written and directed by Tommy Lee Wallace, this flick stars a very mustachioed and very grizzled Tom Adkins!

This movie has everything: rampant commercialism, grieving women with daddy issues, robots, Stonehenge, Irish stereotypes, public intoxication, casual sexism, and the wanton disregard for personal responsibility! The only thing it doesn’t have is an unstoppable killing machine named Michael Myers!

Happy, happy Halloween. Silver Shamrock!
