Aro Recommended Trick 'r Treat

 

aka: Trick or Treat
USA 2008, 82 minutes
Dir. Michael Dougherty
Rating: [R16] Horror, violence and sexual references
Genres: Horror / Serial Killers, Paranorma

 

Aroview: Well-crafted horror that interweaves five spooky stories on the same Halloween night, subverting familiar urban legends into unexpected new forms for a seasoned horror audience.

Although a little too ironic to be genuinely frightening, there is still a lot of fun to be had with all the plot twists, which are wonderfully playful riffs on horror conventions. Indeed, it is the sense of fun that elevates this above so many po-faced horror offerings, making the lack of any real narrative entirely forgivable.
