The Most Fun You'll Have Watching a Movie: Trick ' r Treat

Warren Valley, Ohio, like its sister city, Haddonfield, Illinois, is a town that really knows how to celebrate Halloween. As a matter of fact, if you stumbled on to Warren Valley's Main Street on October 31st, you might think you are at Mardi Gras or maybe even a Gay Pride parade - it's that much of a party! By now, you've probably read every review of Michael Dougherty's Trick 'r Treat, so I won't bore you with my thoughts on the film other than this: for hell's sake, if you have not already, get your paws on this goodie bag and dig in! It's probably one of the most enjoyable supernatural films I've seen in a long time. Just turn off your brain, and enjoy the caramel coated, sugar infused, bloody good time that is Trick 'r Treat.

As for that other Halloween themed film, I could not help but notice the following:

A virginal lass named, Laurie.

A psychopathic tyke who picks Halloween night to do his dirty work.

And a creepy guy in a white mask.

Of course, things are much different from John Carpenter's classic, but I thought it bares mentioning.

OK, that's it, now go hit up Netflix and rent this fabulous movie, invite the family, the neighbors, everyone you know and settle in for a great time ... oh, and don't extinguish the candles in your jack o latern until midnight ... if you know what's good for you!

Going to tackle that cinematic goodie bag known as Trick 'r Treat, and guess what? Seems like somebody might have been nodding in John Carpenter's direction!
