Trick 'r Treat

[Haunt Master]

Have you seen Halloween 5, 6, H20 and Resurrection?

And also, F13 remake will come out in 2009!

[hippieluvn]

Yes, but I didn't enjoy them; I'm a fan of Halloween 1-4 and the RZ remake. Similarly, I only enjoy F13 1-4, 6, and Freddy vs Jason; and looking forward to the F13 remake!

I've been excited about Trick R Treat for over two years now, so the delays have been really upsetting. The idiots at Warner Brothers didn't want to compete against Saw 4 in October of 2006, so they postponed it yet again, and recently dropped it altogether. So now Trick R Treat (which was completed nearly two years ago) is completely without a home, and there is no news about which studios, if any, are interested. Hopefully we'll receive some positive news soon for a change because this looks like a truly amazing film. For more updates and rants, I recommend checking out the Trick R Treat messageboard on IMDb.com

TRICK 'R TREAT (2009)
www.imdb.com/title/tt0862856


I was saddened to see that the writer and the director Michael Dougherty has insisted that this his film will not release until next year in 2009! WHY ??? Because of all things have been F**ked-up!!! Other things to do so... It has to wait until next year!!!

Well, it's about four interwoven stories that occur on Halloween: An everyday high school principal was 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; a woman who loathes the night has to contend with her holiday-obsessed husband.

AGIAN!!!! THATS WHAT HE SAID LAST YEAR!!!!! WTF MAN

Yeah I'm getting frustrated with this too. Up until recently I was still under the impression it was going to come out this year. I'm just gonna forget about this movie

[Haunt Master]

Same thing to my feeling!

I thought it was coming out last year, but NO!!!

Again, I was getting excited to see it this year, but NO!!!

What a waste time of waiting for it next year!!! WHY!?!?

The only reason that we haven't been treated to this film yet is because of Warner Brothers and their incompetance. It got rave reviews from its special screenings in October and even won the Audience Award at the Screamfest Film Festival. Even the horror website Dread Central gave it a perfect 5/5 and that's very rare for them.

However, there are still no plans to release the film. On the bright side (if you can call it that), it was announced over the weekend that Warner Brothers is scheduling a test screening, so maybe we'll get to see it in 2009. To make sure we do, let's annoy the hell out of these idiots! WRITE TO THESE PEOPLE AND TELL THEM WE WANT TRICK 'R TREAT!!!!!!!

Thanks for posting these informations here! I really do appreciate that, but where did you find out? Again, thanks!

[Dittomist]

I wrote to Michael Dougherty, the writer/director, on Myspace to ask if he had any contact info for Warner Brothers, and he gave me the e-mail address of somebody else to ask. So that's how I got those adresses. I sent letters to them all last week and they haven't been returned, so I assume they are legit. And I will continue to send them letters/articles/movie reviews several times a week, every week, until I get some definite news, dammit!
Apparently, the test screening (it's unbelievable how after all this, we are back to the test screening phase) yesterday got an applause from the audience, so that's a good sign. But then again, the test screenings in 2006 went really well too and just about everybody who has seen the film has liked/loved it.
Let's keep the enthusiasm alive and hopefully we'll finally have our own cinematic treat for next Halloween.
The movie was seemingly made for everybody at halloween.com

[Haunt Master]

So it is coming on next Halloween? Well, I really can't wait to see it!

[Dittomist]

There are still no plans whatsoever to release Trick 'R Treat. But this week's test screening shows that at least they haven't forgotten about the film. I am hoping for an October 2009 theatrical release but at this point, I will settle for anything, even just a direct-to-DVD release in March.

[Dittomist]

Honestly guys, how can this hurt? You can send a letter, copy and paste a review, article, etc. Let's just make sure they don't go a single day without hearing about Trick 'R Treat until the film is released.
