Horror Movie Month - Trick 'r Treat

Trick 'r Treat (2008)
The Stars - Anna Paquin, Dylan Baker, Brian Cox
The Gist - The film is really four Halloween related stories that weave together and tell the tale of a single night of trick or treating and partying in a small town. Among the stories: Baker plays a twisted principal who takes trick or treating rules VERY seriously, Paquin plays a virginal young woman trying to find the perfect date for a party and Cox gets terrorized inside his own home. Sam, a tiny "child" in orange clothes and a creepy burlap sack shaped like a pumpkin tie the stories together.
The Scares - It's not scary at all but it is quite good.
The Body Count - Including flashbacks, I'm going to go with 20 although I lost count during a particularly bloody scene.
The Grade - B+
