Like most third movies, Halloween III is the one that opts for unrestrained series-perpetuating exposition over simply doling out another episode and here not only do we not get another simple "Michael Myers comes home" episode, the masked killer does not even feature in a departure from the slasher horror series that, with its pair of investigators heading into a toy factory to find it full of brainwashed henchmen and a diabolical secret (mass production of Halloween masks with brainwashing microchips in them!) is more suited to an episode of 70s TV series "The Avengers" with slasher fans being told suddenly that Halloween is not just a calendar event but a pagan backstory.
