Directed By: David A. Prior

MVP’s: Ted Prior, Linda McGill, Jeanine Scheer, John Eastman, Doug Matley, Sandy Brooke, Mary Mendez, Tim Aguilar

Response: Avoiding hard talks with beer and “country noogies”. Special Effects by: Blood and Guts; hell yes they are. Idylic Casio while jacked. You just KNOW this house reeks of farts. Kid ghosts puff up to Super Mario size. Bros rough house with their sweeties in slo-mo.

Halloween Score:

Autumn Vibes: 2/5

Scares & Chills: 3/5

Cultural & Cinematic Importance: 5/5

Monster Action: 1/5

Hint for Tomorrow’s Movie: We get our goth on in high-moody elegance. From the back half of the 20th century.
