This is my favorite Halloween themed movie of all time and this is one fans will want to get their own copy of!

Follow the secret and disturbing life of a high school principal (Dylan Baker) leads a double life as a brutal serial killer; one young girl’s journey (Anna Paquin) searches for love, only to find something even scarier; a group of teenagers pull a prank with disastrous consequences; and an old man (Brian Cox) meets Sam, a mischievous troublemaker with a terrifying secret.
With its interweaving horror stories and unforgettable characters, Trick or treat Cementing itself as a Halloween must-have, it pays homage to the golden age of horror comics and ’80s creature features in a sleek, modern style that’s sure to send shivers down the spine of any fear fiend. Get ready for the scariest Halloween of your life – and remember, always check your candy!
