Bonus! - Halloween III: Season of the Witch

How important is Michael Myers to the Halloween franchise? According to HALLOWEEN III: SEASON OF THE WITCH, not important at all - a bold stance that made it an unfairly maligned film. Listen to Alex and Julio as they take a minor Haddonfield Nights detour into the black sheep of the Halloween family, the one that replaced Dr. Loomis and Laurie Strode with younger, sexier counterparts! Share their awe at Tom Atkins’ sexual feats! And celebrate the pure insanity of the Silver Shamrock genocidal plan!

- Our friend and past collaborator Cory Ahre has an Indiegogo Campaign going for a movie he’s written: WAGES OF SIN. Check it out and see if you want to get involved!

- THE FESTIVE YEARS have been letting us use their music for years now and they are amazing. You can check out their work on Spotify, on Facebook or on their very own website.

- Hans Rothgiesser, the man behind our logo, can be reached at @mildemonios on Twitter or you can email him at mildemonios@hotmail.com in case you ever need a logo (or comics) produced. And you can listen to him talk about Peruvian politics on his own podcast, NACION COMBI and Peruvian economics on his other podcast, MARGINAL. Aaaaand you can also check out all the stuff he’s written on his own website. Don’t know Spanish? He also did a podcast in English called LIVING IN PERU, about immigrants in - where else - Perú. Oh, and as if that wasn’t enough, he has a new collection of zombie short stories, ZOMOS ZOMBIES. Ask him about it!

Up next, we come back to Michael Myers, as The Haddonfield Nights return to Haddonfield proper in HALLOWEEN 6: THE CURSE OF MICHAEL MYERS! In the meantime, let us know how you liked SEASON OF THE WITCH! Was it good enough to be part of this franchise? Would it be better on its own? Is Tom Atkins a convincing sexual dynamo?
