Make room on your DVD shelf for Trick 'r Treat. This straight to DVD holiday horror brings together four Halloween tales set in suburban Warren Valley, Ohio. Each story is tied together by the creepy half-pint pumpkin headed Sam.
This movie has a great mix of scares, gore, vampires, werewolves, drinking, and of course, classic cheesiness; keep an eye out for all the menacing candy bars. There isn't a single thing I can think of wrong with this movie. Trick 'r treat is undeniable one of the best modern Halloween movies because it sticks to classic effects while still keeping an edgy contemporary feel. Just fast forward to the werewolf scene if you don't believe me.
In reality though, I can see why Warner Bros. sent this straight to DVD. Yes, this is a solid Halloween movie, but I can't see this doing well in theatres for more than two or three weeks before Halloween. But now, everyone will be putting Trick 'r Treat into their Halloween movie marathon.
Rating: 9/10
