 Horror Classic November 23, 2009

Trick r Treat is one of the best horror movies I have seen in a long time. There are many different stories in this movie and each one is awesome, this movie will end up being a cult classic and deservedly so.
 It was okay.. November 22, 2009

I do not usually buy a movie when it is first released as I prefer to wait until the price drops. This movie had such great reviews that I went ahead and bought it. It's okay, not the rave that I had read. The original Halloween with Jaime Lee Curtis is much better.
A New Halloween Tradition November 21, 2009
Charles Avinger (Ann Arbor, MI USA)

This film is a neat little anthology centered on Halloween in which all of the stories interweave and interconnect with each other, rather than being presented as stand-alone segments. This approach works very well. Some scenes that don't make clear sense when first viewed will be perfectly understandable when put into context the next time they are glimpsed. Vampires, boogeymen, the dangers trick-or-treaters face, and a small goblin-like creature are just some of the film's goodies. Viewers should be warned that certain themes might not be appropriate for children, especially young children. The best thing about the film is that it captures the spirit of the holiday like no film since John Carpenter's Halloween did, and around here, at least, it will be brought out every October to celebrate Halloween, a new tradition. Recommended.
 Not that Good November 20, 2009

I was really expecting more based upon all the hype about this movie. I was not impressed. I've seen better scary movies on LMN. Make sure you watch it for free, don't pay anything to rent this awful movie.
A lot of hype, but I can see why it was shelved November 19, 2009

I first saw the preview to this movie years ago, and it mentioned an upcoming theatrical release. At the time, the trailer seemed interesting enough, I'd see it when it became a rental. After the release was pulled, I didn't get dragged into the hype, but it still stuck in my mind, "When will this movie get released?".
Well, eventually it was released. I watched the Blu-ray. I knew I was in trouble after the first 5-10 minutes. After that amount of time, it clicked, this felt like a made-for-tv movie, only with more blood. Not sure how to explain "Made-for-TV", but that's the vibe it gave off. It's a similar feeling that some "Direct-to-video" movies give off, which is what this is...
The stories, they would have been better on their own, maybe a few tie-ins here and there, but it jumps around a lot from one story to another, and there doesn't seem to be much reason for it. They don't tie together very well, and 3 of the 4 I found pretty dull. The story about the bus, while not a winner, was better than the 3 others.
Also, the first story, as it progressed, I thought back to the movie Parents. Oh, see Parents if you haven't, it's a decent film.
With Trick R Treat, don't expect much from the stories. They aren't frightening, and a bit cartoonish and predicatable. It seemed more geared towards teenagers, and I think the movie may have had a theatrical release if there were a some edits for a PG-13 rating.
Bottom line; it left me rolling my eyes, and it became very clear to me why this movie didn't get released into theatres. With the comic book featured in the opening credits, it made me think back on Creepshow. Though, after it began, I could tell this wasn't going to be as fun as Creepshow.
