Trick 'r Treat
Poison, drowning, claw, or knife. So many ways to take a life.
Directed by Michael Dougherty
Produced by Legendary Pictures, Bad Hat Harry Productions
A darkly comedic horror anthology that weaves Halloween tales of monsters, killers, and supernatural revenge with equal parts gore and irreverent humor.
Four interwoven stories that occur on Halloween: an everyday high school principal has a secret life as a serial killer; a college virgin might have just met the one guy for her; a group of teenagers pull a mean prank, and a bitter old recluse receives an uninvited guest.
