    • Quotes
      [on Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982)] We threw in everything but the kitchen sink. Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982) has this weird homemade quality. It's not that slick. It's intentionally a little bit funky. It's like the Little Rascals went out and made this movie, just to spite Halloween. And I love that.
