Ten stories are woven together by their shared theme of Halloween night in an American suburb, where ghouls, imps, aliens and axe murderers appear for one night only to terrorize unsuspecting residents.
Named "the best horror anthology since Trick 'r Treat" by Fangoria and "among the best Halloween-themed horror movies ever made" by DailyDead, this critically acclaimed film weaves together ten chilling tales from horror's top directors. Ghosts, ghouls, monsters, and the devil delight in terrorizing unsuspecting residents of a suburban neighborhood on Halloween night.Written by

I wanted to like this movie. I really did. I even went as far as not watching a trailer so not one minute of the film would be ruined... big mistake. What tries to be an anthology horror film turns into Goosebumps for grown-ups. The acting is lousy all around, a couple D-list actors make an appearance, like "hey, it's that guy from that thing no one remembers". I gave it a chance, but you would be better off watching anything else. This is a direct to Syfy movie (and that might appeal to some). But in reality. it's a failed attempt. The only way to enjoy this movie would be to smoke a lot of weed... or have low standards for what qualifies as a horror movie.
