WubsTheFadger Short and Simple Review by WubsTheFadgerFirst off, the films story is an anthology which has various story's that intertwine in a very clever and smart way. The story's are not that scary but do have some dark humor that is often hilarious. Some of the story's are stronger then other while a few of the story's are a little weak. All in all, this film does a great job connecting all of the story's.The acting is all around good. Dylan Baker, Anna Paquin, and Leslie Bibb all perform well. Brain Cox gives the best performance near the end. He displays so much emotion ad is an understated talent.The pacing can be a little slow in some of the story's but it is mostly fast. the runtime is very short. the film is only one hour and twenty-two minutes.The gore and use of practical effects is great. I just wish that this film was scarier.Pros: Good use of the anthology system, connecting story's, good acting, Brain Cox's performance, good use of dark humor, and a short runtimeCons: Some weak story's, some weak acting, slow pacing in some story's, and the film is not that scaryOverall Rating: 6.3
Zbigniew_Krycsiwiki I've always had a weakness for anthology horror films, and this is easily one of the best I've seen, presenting five short stories, all running concurrently​, on Halloween night in this small town. A seemingly normal man is a killer, trying desperately hard to bury his latest victim, while his hyperactive son interferes, and a neighbour won't mind his own business. A, quite frankly, silly story about sexy Red Riding Hood, which is the only weak link, as far as I'm concerned, in terms of storytelling, but I dug the sexy costumes. A group of kids tell a savant a story of a horrific bus accident, before playing a cruel joke on her, only to meet their demise, as the Crux of the main plot kicks in, and vengeful souls rise from the dead. A girl who is bored with Halloween must deal with Halloween obsessed boyfriend, who doesn't want to take down his glorious decorations before Halloween is over. Then, the main point to the film kicks in, as the earlier mentioned vengeful souls seek to avenge their own deaths, by going Trick or Treating at the home of same man responsible for their deaths: the earlier mentioned neighbour, who won't mind his own business, right next door to the earlier mentioned killer, and right across the street from the earlier mentioned girl, and her Halloween obsessed boyfriend. Creepy, scary, with a good sense of humour, and very well written, and with a great attention to detail, as various characters from each segment seem almost as background extras in other segments they're not involved in, only to reappear as the main characters in a later vignette. Beautifully​ filmed, with rich, vibrant, realistic colours, not overly saturated with colour filters, this looks and feels like a small town at Halloween, The lore of Halloween, its appeal, is the inspiration here, how it can be a bit of a scare, but it can also be a lot of fun, often times simultaneously, just like this movie.
Georgia Armp I chose to watch this movie because I thought it would be frightening or it would have a twisted plot. This movie was instead boring and everything looked very fake during the "frightening" parts. It had many "earlier" and "later" parts which were pretty confusing and I believe that most of the scenes weren't associated with each other. I understand that some thrillers aren't supposed to scare you but only to make you feel anxious and nervous about what is going to happen ,but this film didn't make me feel either way. I wouldn't recommend this film to anyone, I would only suggest you to watch it if you are in the mood to laugh and make fun of the characters! This is only my opinion and according to my taste in thriller movies I would choose to watch "the conjuring 2 " or "dead silence" which I find nice horror movies. Ι hope I helped with this review of mine and I would like to apologize if I made any grammar or syntax mistake, because I don't speak English very well.
Bob An First of all, this review may contain spoilers! :)I just finishes watching this film. IMDb put out some Children of horror article on facebook and as a fan of horror films I did go through and somehow ended up on this film. I was intrigued it has good note so wanted to watch it, but, now, after... I see I could have seen something better.First of all, this film is so random! There are several stories which are kinda related to each other but very loosely. I can not say this is a horror movie as the scenes are not really horror or particularly gore. There is some blood and some unusual creatures, but many scenes are more like a comedy and do intend to make people laugh. I did not laugh. I was more wondering what the hell?! And I am not sure if those scenes which are homage to other films are intentional or not ( Adams Family comes to mind).There are some surprising scenes - like when the dad who killed the boy by poisonous candy is walking behind his son with a big knife and you - of course - expect daddy to kill his son - only to find that the kid is making a 'pumpkin ' out of the dead kid's head ! Now, that is something! And almost in the beginning of the movie. Unfortunately, after that no real surprises ( good ones).Ah, yes, it was a surprise to see who is the driver who killed all those disturbed kids.All in all ... rather uninspiring film. I give it a four.
