3/5 stars My first time watching, in 2024, and overall, not bad. The plot was a little empty, the acting was very good. The "creeper" is scary and a great bit of design, I feel it took a lot of inspiration off Stephen Kings "IT" especially with the "nest" and it only coming out every certain amount of years and for a certain amount of time. Darry Jenner was brilliant and performed his role really well, I didn't think too much to the sister, I felt her part was a little boring but was still well performed. Overall would recommend but don't think I would watch again.

"Trick 'r Treat" is a pretty fun movie to watch around Halloween. Its short length makes it an easy watch and its blend of comedy and horror makes it a good time. I think the movie does a good job of subverting expectations and playing around with horror tropes. I do think the short story format has potential here, but I don't feel like the storylines came together in a truly satisfying way. I liked how some things tied together as well as how bonkers some of the arcs became, but I thought it resulted in something more unexpected than it did. Overall, it is a fun movie that feels designed for Halloween watch parties, and for that, I enjoyed watching it the way I did.

Poison, drowning, claw, or knife. So many ways to take a life. Trick 'r Treat is a 2007 American anthology horror film written and directed by Michael Dougherty (in his directorial debut) 🎃 It’s good 🙂 Worth a watch. I’d recommend it if you like this genre 👍🏼 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.

Late Night With The Devil is the perfect example that simple things, when done well, can be extremely memorable and successful. I simply loved the atmosphere of the 70s and even more so the fact that they used real figures and societies from that time in the film, such as the Bohemian Grove. This made the film even more interesting for me. It is also worth highlighting that, at the beginning of the film, we quickly see frames of Charles Manson and the Manson girls, amidst images that illustrate the events and fears of that time. The script, although simple, was very well written. The cinematography in the film is incredible. The cast is wonderful, with absolute emphasis on David Dastmalchian. I think this was the first film I've seen in which he is the protagonist. Here, he plays a dubious character, although the script makes it almost explicit that he, in fact, made some kind of satanic pact to obtain fame and success. The rest of the cast members were amazing, too. I can't wait to watch it again.

Nowadays, it’s really hard to find a really good rom–com movie. I think it was written well enough for nowadays and was very cute. The story is based off of a Shakespeare play much to do about nothing. Leaving the two main character still named Ben and Bea for Benjamin and Beatrice from the play. I would watch it again. I felt all the Actors were chosen well for their characters. And of course, the host of Shibumy theaters Ron, and Mark make your experience even better. Will return to this theater many times.
