Urusla- is a excellent villian and Ariel is a excellent mermaid.
The plot: In Disney's beguiling animated romp, rebellious 16-year-old mermaid Ariel (Jodi Benson) is fascinated with life on land. On one of her visits to the surface, which are forbidden by her controlling father, King Triton, she falls for a human prince. Determined to be with her new love, Ariel makes a dangerous deal with the sea witch Ursula (Pat Carroll) to become human for three days. But when plans go awry for the star-crossed lovers, the king must make the ultimate sacrifice for his daughter.

The whole game plays out by reading the story that accompanies the box and then playing out scenarios depicted by board pieces and using beautifully sculpted miniatures to navigate and fight the queens rat forces, spiders and more.
Its a game for the whole family which is brilliant, although to keep things moving smoothly for younger kids some rules can be stripped back for sure. This game is imaginative, difficulty can ramp up quickly making it challenging for all level of players and even though its co-op you can always just compete for kills......Centipedes only count as one.

KyleQ (267 KP) rated Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982) in Movies
Jul 18, 2020
I'm sure this was a strange movie to watch when it came out what with it being titled Halloween III, yet it had no connection to the first two. But nowadays, this should be considered a fun Halloween-time classic.
Director Tommy Lee Wallace learned from watching John Carpenter. In turn Halloween III benefits from a good score, if the main song isn't stuck in your head by the end, it'll be a miracle.
The tone is overall good, it is a bit cheesy but it maintains it, it comes across more as a fun B-movie.
Visually the film packs lots of Halloween-time images. It might not fit the franchise, but it nails the setting.
You definitely can't take it very seriously.
Halloween III: Season of the Witch is like going through a haunted funhouse. Expect genuine scares and you'll be sorely disappointed. Expect to just have fun, and you'll get plenty of it. I recommend it.
