  Halloween III: Season of the Witch

  £325.00

  “Witchcraft enters the computer age, and a different terror begins.”

  John Carpenter’s masterpiece of modern horror “Halloween” spawned a multitude of sequels which included this 1982 offering “Halloween III: Season of the Witch”. A sequel in name only as it didn’t feature Michael Myers but took a new take on the mythos as ancient witchcraft meets modern technology in the form of Silver Shamrock masks. Who better then to take on the artistic duties than the modern maestro of horror artwork – Graham Humphreys. The content and characterisations are super realistic, layout and colours perfectly balanced and a near perfect example of a re-imagined poster. Released in 2024 as an exclusive Private Commission, this strictly limited Artist Proof edition is hand-numbered AP 11/15 and signed by the artist. Immediately selling out when launched, this originally rolled, flat-unfolded (as issued) example displays to exceptional effect and represents a truly outstanding and extremely desirable item of collectable movie memorabilia with a ‘modern’ twist. Originally rolled, flat-unfolded (as issued) the example offered displays to exceptional effect and represents a truly outstanding and extremely desirable item of collectable John Carpenter horror movie memorabilia.

  Trivia: The tagline “The night no one comes home” is a play on the original Halloween movie’s tagline “The night HE came home.”

This beautiful originally example certainly impresses in the large format style of an Italian One Panel (2-Fogli). A classic 80s poster design, with bold in your face artwork (sadly un-attributed) featuring the titular Maniac Cop looming menacingly over the night time New York skyline with deep blood red detailing for the title. Regarded as one THE cult movies of the 1980s, this example is presented in excellent original, folded (as issued) condition that represents a fantastic piece of cinematic movie memorabilia.

  Trivia: Given a limited theatrical release in the U.S. at Grindhouse theaters and midnight movie showings. Despite failing to recoup its costs, the video rights sales shot through the roof due to the huge demand for horror related films for the US and foreign video rental market. This ultimately led to two sequels being made, driven almost exclusively by demand from the video rental market.
