Trick R Treat Review
loading...
It is said that Halloween is the night when the dead rise to walk among us and other unspeakable things roam free. Trick R Treat is four interwoven stories that occur on Halloween: An everyday high school principal has a secret life; a college virgin might have just met the one guy for her; a group of teenagers pull a mean prank; a woman who loathes the night has to contend with her holiday-obsessed husband.
There was a lot of hype around Trick R Treat since it won the Audience Award at 2008 Screamfest. The big question was did the movie live up to the hype? The simple answer is Yes it did. Trick R Treat does a great job intertwining the 4 stories and jumps between them while telling them. It gives the movie a non-linear feel and adds to some of the surprises I won’t spoil. There are no big name actors, but overall the acting was pretty solid.
The movie wasn’t too scary, but had a few scares throughout mixed in with some laughs. The best part was how the story was rolled out and some of the suspense trying to figure out what happened. The overall experience of the movie was enjoyable since none of the stories dragged on. I’d definitely recommend checking out the movie to all horror fans.
