Plot: On Halloween, nothing is what it seems when a suburban couple learns the dangers of blowing out a Jack-o-Lantern before midnight; four women cross paths with a costumed stalker at a local festival; a group of pranksters goes too far and discovers the horrifying truth buried in a local legend; and a cantankerous old hermit is visited by a strange trick-or-treater with a few bones to pick.
Just in time for Halloween comes a scary movie – wow, who would have guessed?
Hopefully, this one will rise out of the ashes of some of it’s predecessors to be something worth remembering more than 5 minutes after you’ve walked out of the theather (or more likely, shut off the DVD player).
The fact that the film is being released at the beginning of October rather than the end says that either the studio is hopeful it’ll run for the whole month – or it’s not counting on it doing better than Saw IV (2007), so is trying to grab the crowds while it can.
UPDATE: The latest for this film (which was originally slated for 2007) is that it will be hitting DVD/Blu-Ray shelves October, 2009 after a year of only being released in a VERY limited release.
