Which Silver Shamrock Mask Would You Wear?
What better way to spend Memorial Day than to watch Halloween III: Season of the Witch?
Our post-BBQ mayhem started last night with Tommy Lee Wallace’s 1982 classic, which sadly only has a 2 star rating on IMDB. All of us horror fans know Michael Myers isn’t in the third film, yet it’s easily one of the best in the long-standing franchise.
Featuring icon Tom Atkins, a large Halloween mask-making company has plans to kill millions of American children with something sinister hidden in Halloween masks.
Said company is Silver Shamrock, which boasts the memorable jingle (see video below) that counts down until Halloween. This season, they’ve unveiled three new masks: a pumpkin, a witch and a skeleton. While all are unique and must-owns, I started to think, “If it were Halloween, which of these three would I wear?”
So, that’s the question of the day? Which Silver Shamrock mask would you wear this coming Halloween, and why?

R-Rated ‘The X-Files: I Want to Believe’ Director’s Cut Gets New Title and Streaming Premiere Date
After a slight delay, Disney has finally announced a new streaming date for the R-Rated director’s cut of The X-Files: I Want to Believe. According to Gizmodo, it’ll also come with a new title.
The X-Files: I Want to Believe Vrach Frankenshteyn begins streaming on Hulu on August 14.
The new cut was first teased in an interview with director Chris Carter on the Fail Better With David Duchovny podcast from last year, where he teased a much scarier movie he intended.
“Now I have a chance to go back and make the scary movie that I always intended to make,” Carter explained last year. “It’s not just doing a Director’s Cut to do a Director’s Cut. It’s really kind of bringing to life something that for me was on the page and never got to the screen.“
The director’s cut of the film was initially set to arrive on Disney+ in June, but quietly disappeared from the schedule without a word. Polygon reported the delay was “due to some last-minute adjustments being made to the film.”
The release’s new “Vrach Frankenshteyn” title certainly suggests those adjustments have been made, likely referring to a Frankensteining of bonus footage.
In the film, Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully (Gillian Anderson) have been out of the FBI for several years, with Mulder living in isolation and Scully having become a doctor at a Catholic hospital, where she has formed a bond with a critically ill child patient.
When an FBI agent is mysteriously kidnapped, and a former Catholic priest who has been convicted of pedophilia claims to be experiencing psychic visions of the endangered agent, Scully is asked to bring Mulder back to the bureau to consult on the case because of his work with psychics.
The brand new R-rated cut will “faithfully restore the filmmaker’s original vision.”
Look for it on Hulu next month.
