Review: Movie: Trick 'R Treat


Trick 'R Treat is my quintessential Halloween movie. It's even set on Halloween. It's also really scary (to me) and full of gore. It also has Anna Paquin before she was Sookie in True Blood.

One of my favorite things about really old films is that there is usually more than one story line we are following. This movie also does that. We have several intriguing story lines that area all set to freak you out.

One of the more main characters is the creature in this poster. He is a bit like a creepy doll and the size of a small child.

Another story line has to do with a bus of mentally handicapped kids that had been killed years ago on Halloween in their costumes, by their bus driver.

We also have a creepy principal as well as several other nefarious characters.

One of the reasons for the multiple story lines is that fact that Trick 'R Treat was actually a comic before it was a movie.

I have never read the comic, but I've heard it is much more scary and gross than the movie. If you want to read it let me know what you think.

What is your traditional Halloween movie? Anything new striking your fancy? Did I you find a new movie that you are interested in watching?
