[OMFG] Check Out These Awesome ‘Halloween III’ Figures!!!

Published

10 more days ’til Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! Silver Shamrock!

These awesome figurines honoring Halloween III: Season Of The Witch come from Retroband. The bummer is that they were manufactured in an extremely limited quantity (20 each). The upside is that they look awesome and are a delightfully sinister addition to anyone’s bookshelf (or wherever you keep this stuff). Having seen Halloween III, if I saw these trick ‘r treating I’d be leery of letting my (imaginary) kids eat anything from that house.

The line included both a Skeleton and Pumpkin figure that each came with a TV accessory along with the awesome warning that, “*Each piece [is] individually hand painted so no two are exactly alike.

Can Retroband be convinced to expand their line without devaluing the investment of the lucky 20 people who got them? Maybe make a few changes to set the new ones apart? Or are you going to be stuck on EBay this afternoon? At any rate, check out their site, they’ve got some cool Night Of The Creeps and Creepshow stuff on there as well. I should also note I found this on the twitter feed of BenDavid Grabinski, who has an uncanny ability to come across cool horror ephemera.

Jessica Rothe Keeps the Hope Alive for Third ‘Happy Death Day’ Movie

Published

It’s now been five years since the release of sequel Happy Death Day 2U, Christopher Landon’s sequel to the Groundhog Day-style slasher movie from 2017. Both films star Jessica Rothe as final girl Tree Gelbman, and director Christopher Landon had been planning on bringing the character – and the actor – back for a third installment. So… where is it?!

We’ve been talking about a potential Happy Death Day 3 for several years now, with the ball in producer Jason Blum’s court. Happy Death Day 2U scared up $64 million at the worldwide box office, a far cry from the first film’s $125 million. But with a reported production budget of just $9 million, that first sequel was profitable for Blumhouse. So again… where is it?!

Chatting with Screen Geek this week while promoting her new action-thriller Boy Kills World, franchise star Jessica Rothe provided a hopeful update on Happy Death Day 3.

Well, I can say Chris Landon has the whole thing figured out,” Rothe explains. “We just need to wait for Blumhouse and Universal to get their ducks in a row.

Rothe continues in her comments to Screen Geek, “But my fingers are so crossed. I think Tree [Gelbman] deserves her third and final chapter to bring that incredible character and franchise to a close or a new beginning.”

Back in 2020, Christopher Landon had revealed that the working title for the third installment was Happy Death Day to Us, said to be “different than the other two films.”

In the meantime, Christopher Landon is directing a mysterious thriller titled Drop for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes, along with a werewolf movie titled Big Bad for Lionsgate.
