Yes, it has become an annual mandatory Halloween viewing for all of us, but we've never had the opportunity to see Trick 'r Treat in theaters. Until tonight! From it's original straight-to-DVD release back in 2007, tonight marks the first time Mike Dougherty's mistreated cult classic gets the theater experience it has always deserved.
I have literally seen this film at least 30 times, but I'm still going to get out and see it on the big screen. We get two nights - tonight and Thursday - to see it. Maybe theaters can make this an annual occurrence and a new Halloween tradition? Let's make it happen!
In the meantime, Slashfilm has a great article that covers the full history of the maligned-to-cult-classic film. Give it a read before going to the theater! And then enjoy Douglas Pipes' incredible soundtrack! Enjoy!
