	Author	Review
United States	Roger Ebert rogerebert.com	"There are a lot of problems with 'Halloween III', but the most basic one is that I could never figure out what the villain wanted to accomplish if he got his way (…) Rating: ★½ (out of 4)"	NEG
United States	Vincent Canby The New York Times	"[It] means to be funny and frequently is (...) Mr. Wallace clearly has a fondness for the cliches he is parodying and he does it with style."	POS
United States	Scott Tobias AV Club	"Take the 'Halloween' part away and 'Season Of The Witch' is a standalone oddity worth considering on its own terms."	POS
United States	Giaco Furino Bloody Disgusting	"It doesn’t have Mike Myers. It doesn’t have Sam Loomis. It wasn’t directed by John Carpenter. And 'Halloween 3: Season of the Witch' is the best in the series."	POS
United States	Jim Knipfel Den of Geek	"It’s an intelligent, surprising, and disturbing film with a number of nice touches (…) Rating: ★★★★½ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Kim Newman Empire	"Wallace's attempt at the franchise is worth a look as long as you avoid the UK censored version (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
