Todays scarecter are the Kids on the School Bus from Trick r' Treat!
Trick r' Treat (2007 ; 82 Brain Eaters) : This is a great horror film written and directed by Michael Dougherty, based on his short film Season's Greetings. Trick r' Treat was set on Halloween with a bunch of stories interweave into one in a very clever way. If you pay attention when one story is going on you will see characters from the other stories which tie all the stories together. It was originally going to be released in October of 2007 but got pushed back for unknown reasons and was released straight to DVD in October of 2009. Honestly this film shouldn't have went straight to DVD but what can you do. It is probably one of the greatest horror films to be made and released in the 2000's. It has an amazing cast made up of Dylan Baker, Rochelle Aytes, Anna Paquin, Brian Cox, Quinn Lord, Lauren Lee Smit, Tahmoh Penikett, Brett Kelly, Britt McKillip, Isabelle Deluce, Jean-Luc Bilodeau, Leslie Bibb, Christine Willes and so on. The film was filmed on location in Vancouver, British Columbia. It has that dark creepy feel with out being too over the top. There is talk about a sequel. If your into graphic novels you should check out the Trick r' Treat graphic novel and also check out the film score!
It is said that Halloween is the night when the dead rise to walk among us and other unspeakable things roam free. The rituals of All Hallows Eve were devised to protect us from their evil mischief, and one small town is about to be taught a terrifying lesson that some traditions are best not forgotten. Nothing is what it seems when a suburban couple learns the dangers of blowing out a Jack-o-Lantern before midnight; four women cross paths with a costumed stalker at a local festival; a group of pranksters goes too far and discovers the horrifying truth buried in a local legend; and a cantankerous old hermit is visited by a strange trick-or-treater with a few bones to pick. Costumes and candy, ghouls and goblins, monsters and mayhem... the tricks and treats of Halloween turn deadly as strange creatures of every variety-human and otherwise-try to survive the scariest night of the year.
Hope everyone is enjoying their Halloweekend!
