    Trick r Trick

    I rented a horror movie called Trick r Treat...



    The only reason I rented it is because critics raved about it...and they were saying that it was a disgrace that this movie saw a very limited release...that it's far better than your average horror film.

    Rotten Tomatoes gives it a solid 88% rating.

    Well...they were right...this movie rocks...lol.

    Check it out...you are going to love the little pumpkin kid...

        It also stars Anna Paquin, Brian Cox, Tahmoh Penikett (Battlestar Galactica), Dylan Baker (Dr Connors in Spider-Man)...so you know it's not a mindless production.

        The word of mouth has been so good in fact...that even though it was not a box office hit...a sequel is in the works.

        Hope you guys get to see it.

          Oh...and no CGI here...it's all old school special-effects.

            "Despite only a handful of public screenings, the film has been reviewed extensively by online journalists and bloggers, especially in the genre/horror communities, and reviews are nearly unanimously positive. Dread Central gave it five out of five stars and stated "Trick 'r Treat ranks alongside John Carpenter's Halloween as traditional October viewing and I can't imagine a single horror fan that won't fall head over heels in love with it." The film earned a 10 out of 10 from Ryan Rotten of ShockTilYouDrop.com. It also earned an 8 out of 10 from Bloody-Disgusting.com. IGN attended a screening of the film and concluded, "This well-crafted Halloween horror tribute is a scary blast.", rating it a 8/10 overall. Bloody Disgusting ranked the film ninth in their list of the 'Top 20 Horror Films of the Decade', with the article saying "[It's] so good that its lack of a theatrical release borders on the criminal"

                          The lack of CGI gives it points already.
                          You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...
