Trick ‘r Treat tells four interweaving tales that each culminates with some sort of Halloween message forged by the burlap sack-wearing character Sam.
Yet, here we have a wildly entertaining horror pic/meta-commentary on horror pics featuring enough wild left turns to make your head spin.
Yet, for all its wild flavor, Halloween also presents a conundrum each and every year: what films should a reasonably sane person watch in order to celebrate this festive outing?
In my humble opinion, Michael Dougherty’s Trick ‘r Treat should stand as the go-to movie every Halloween season, and a yearly tradition honored/cherished by the world entire.
