Trick ‘r Treat [Blu-ray]
A creepy, darkly comic celebration of the scariest night of the year from producer BRYAN SINGER (director of X-Men and Superman Returns) and writer-director MICHAEL DOUGHERTY(co-scripter of X2 and Superman Returns). Trick ’R Treat takes the Creepshow/Tales from the Crypt approach to nefarious new depths with four interwoven tales set on Halloween night: a high school principal (DYLAN BAKER) moonlights as a vicious serial killer; the quest of a young virgin (ANNA PAQUIN) for that special someone takes a gruesome turn; a group of teens carries out a cruel prank with disastrous consequences; and a cantankerous old man (BRIAN COX) battles a mischievous trick-or-treating demon.

3 Stars A HALLOWEEN TREAT
If you want something entertaining and scary then this is pretty good saw it last year for halloween we loved it escpecially the ending
1 Stars YUCK!
This movie was AWFUL! We only bought it because the previews showed some monster like scenes. It was a HUGE waste of money and time. I can’t beleive a movie studio invested money on this movie. YUCK
3 Stars “There are rules.”
Well,I broke down and rented this film,what harm could it do right?While I liked much of the imagery and the imagination that was put into it and staying consistent with the *spirit of Halloween”,it isn’t exactly an earth shattering film.It’s not very scary(perhaps is wasn’t ment to be)and some of the story line faulters while trying to “keep up” with a “creep Show” type story telling experience.I think that if it would have gone through another re-write and preferibly a slightly larger budget to improve some of the visual FX it could have been improved a great deal.Aside from some of the campyness and hokeness(much of which I suspect was intentional)it was a OK film.However,if I were to ever be part of the food chain,I could not think of a better way to go than to be devoured by Anna Paquin and a bunch of other half naked, hot werewolf chicks dressed up as cheerleaders,Little Bo Peep, Red Riding Hood or Snow White.I would have liked to have seen more,but you get what you pay for.All in all,its a film made for fun and it is better than other retarded teenage slasher flicks of present floating around out there on DVD shelves in video stores.
4 Stars its nothing special
I bought this dvd since it was on clearance at a FYI and its not that bad but not that good, it has the typical A movie camera with a B movie plot. The cinametography is not anything special. It didn’t suck like the after dark horror fest movies. It has interesting plot twists and a good story line. Just some points of the movie start to stall out and you wish it would end a little sooner.
It does have a couple of known actors that help the movie along.
5 Stars A Halloween Gift
Thoroughly enjoyed movie - new classic to watch at Halloween. It arrived in a prompt and timely manner and was packaged very nicely. I would recommend this vendor as a reputable dealer with quality products.
