Trick 'r Treat (2007)
Directed by Michael Dougherty
Quick Hit
Trick 'r Treat comes off like a nasty horror play—playful, spooky, while the pressure keeps climbing.
Full Take
Trick 'r Treat leans hard into anthology horror energy, and Michael Dougherty keeps the tone playful without letting the movie drift. The filmmaking is locked in, the atmosphere is doing real work, and the payoff earns the damage. Not flawless, but the swing is worth it.

I’m in the middle on this one. There are definitely some strong moments, but also parts that didn’t fully connect.
This one actually worked for me.
