Storyline
Named "the best horror anthology since Trick 'r Treat" by Fangoria and
"among the best Halloween-themed horror movies ever made" by DailyDead,
this critically acclaimed film weaves together ten chilling tales from
horror's top directors. Ghosts, ghouls, monsters, and the devil delight
in terrorizing unsuspecting residents of a suburban neighborhood on
Halloween night.
Reviews
That
is the word that best describes this anthology of Halloween themed
stories; mediocre would be another. The stories are quite short and in
most cases they fail to scare or amuse, the one exception being the one
about a kidnapping, which I found rather funny and original. There is a
fair amount of gore and most of it was created using practical effects,
which is always nice, but they aren't particularly good, once again the
word that comes to mind is mediocre. Also the stories are too short and
end rather abruptly, you are usually left wondering, "wait, is that
it?". In short this movie isn't bad, but it isn't particularly good
either.
