Trick ‘r Treat

Season 2 Episode 52 Published 9 months, 3 weeks ago
Description

During the spookiest time of the year there are a few guidelines all ghosts and goblins should follow. Join PJ and Derek as they light another jack-o’-lantern and carve into Michael Dougherty’s cult anthology Trick ’r Treat (2007). In this episode the guys unravel how the film’s intertwining stories reinvent Halloween mythology, the eerie atmosphere that captures the spirit of Samhain through its dark humor and gory morality plays, and discuss why this once-overlooked film has become a seasonal staple for horror fans. 📺
