    Did you know, there was a Halloween movie that had nothing to do with Michael Myers? Well there was in 1982. Halloween III Season of the Witch and Jayme and I give you a Halloween treat. We break down this franchise one off in this latest episode.
    Halloween III was John Carpenter's chance at showing the world his idea for the franchise... releasing movies as an anthology series. Unfortunately, the world wanted Michael Myers, so this movie wasn't received well.  But some people do like this as a special Halloween time movie.
    So join us as we talk about this thriller mystery!
