The long awaited horror film TRICK 'R TREAT is finally in our video stores, a film that was supposedly be in movie theaters back in 2007, and was push away by Warner Brothers for their own shady reasons. Sadly, this film should've been in movie theaters because this is one of the best original horror films in recent years, and the best horror anthology since CREEPSHOW. We see junk tired fare on the big screen such as the redundant SAW series (in which I will never review here at EYEPUS) and stupid remakes such as MY BLOODY VALENTINE get big screen time, but an original horror to be cult classic TRICK 'R TREAT couldn't be on the big screen, I'd really don't get it.
TRICK 'R TREAT takes us to four intertwining stories full of fun, shockful of jolts, pranks, wickedness, little monsters, poisonous cheap candies, evil little masked children, spookiness, carved pumpkins, costume extravaganza and halloween madness. In one Halloween night a little sweet creepy monster (with a burlap mask) is in the prowl, a school principal is wicked as hell as a serial killer, zombie bus children take vengeance, saucy/deadly femmes, wicked pre-teens pull an almost deadly halloween prank. And all hell breaks loose in this Halloween tribute anthology. The acting by the amazing cast (Leslie Bibb, Anna Paquin, Brian Cox, Dylan Baker) delivers. Michael Dougherty’s direction of Trick 'R Treat is exhilarating and a damn real halloween treat just in time for Halloween, too bad it can't be enjoy in the big screen.
