It's got a contrarian following that likes to claim that the only reason it's maligned is because it was in the Halloween franchise.

This, i don't think it's a cult classic. Carpenter is to blame for attaching the name to it, had the name not been attached then i don't think it would have been shit on. People were pissed because Michael wasn't in it. Can't blame them either because everyone assumed he was in it because he was in the previous movies. --- Currently Playing: Resident Evil 4 Mercenaries Mode,Resident Evil 6 Mercenaries Mode & Call of Duty Ghosts <cite>Mr_Karate_II posted [p:946218409] in Would Hall...

Josiah_Is_Back 10/23/20 9:44:09 PM #29:	Carpenter's original plan to have the Halloween series be more of an anthology would've worked if Season of the Witch was the second installment rather than the third. Having the first two films centered around Michael Myers gave the impression that Halloween as a movie title = Michael Myers. That gave people the wrong impression when SotW came out. A two-parter may have worked later on in the anthology, but to start off with a two-parter just damned the idea from the start. <cite>Josiah_Is_Back posted [p:946222537] in Would Hall...
