Trick r Treat


The movie "Trick r Treat" has been floating around for a few years...it was supposed to be released in theaters, got pushed back, and is now freshly released on DVD.

Rent this.

I love spooky movies.  Not horror movies--spooky movies, and "Trick r Treat" lives up to every expectation for fans of "The Twilight Zone" and pulp horror comic books of the past.  If you want to rent such a movie for the Halloween season, well then, you've found your golden ticket here.  There are four stories that wind together and around each other, characters from one popping up in another. 

This is EXACTLY the type of movie that would have been made years ago--it's spooky, funny, suspenseful--but never gory.  Bryan Singer produced it and here's hoping that there will be more of them....it's a shame that it wasn't released in theaters when it seems like we're being forced fed shit like the "Saw" franchise.  Audiences would have eaten it up because "Trick r Treat" goes down like a refreshing pint of cider.
