After a decent start just like an early 80s horror movie, the usual geek getting bullied etc then half way through it turned into the most low budget bunch of crap I've seen in a long time, such a shame after a promising start. I give the start 8/10, the last half 0/10 making it 4/10 and that's on a good day.

Love this movie. Total nostalgic bringing horror fans back to the 80's genre aka Nightmare Freddy/ Fri 13th Jason & Hellraiser plus countless more past movies. A troubled teen into creative horror gore gets physically beat up by school bullies & then gets given the supernatural opportunity for revenge via an old Skool Halloween demon, The Trickster. It soon goes all proceeds out of control & descends into uncontrollable & violent chaos, even for those he cares about Totally give it a watch advice to the 80's nerds such as me

This 2017 horror film takes place in 1981 on Halloween where we meet teenage kid, Tim who is very artistic and into horror/occult. He lives with his mom who works as a nurse and soon, Tim decides to get revenge on 3 bullies who beat him up by summoning a shapeshifting demon, The Trickster. When things go a little too far, Tim tries to stop it. This isn't bad, except for some acting, but there's creepy moments, an eerie score and good make-up effects. The film is also similar to other revenge/horror flicks like, "Pumpkinhead," "Trick or Treat," "Creepshow" and "Evilspeak" plus it pays homage to John Carpenter's "Halloween." Fans of horror or the holiday may want to check this out at least once.

Smash the pumpkins put out the lame! The special effects were lame. The evil creature is an evil rumpelstiltskin copy. The film could have been better but lazy writing and its just another bad movie.

If you love the movie's of the 80's especially the horror genre, you will enjoy The Terror Of Hallow's Eve! I don't like to give spoilers and since this just came out today December 11th, 2018 I will do my best not too! I have to say this movie was even better than I had thought it was going to be, truth be told! I have known what the synopsis has said and seen the trailers for a while now.. but seeing the movie shows why it is an awarding winning film. It left me wanting more!! So hope they do a sequel and/or a prequel to this! There is more to this story that can be told! I hope this will be out to dvd/vod for purchase worldwide soon! #BulliesBeware #CarefulWhatYouWishFor #TerrorTrickster

How have I never heard of the film until 2019? This movie it truly original. The Trickster is a Halloween gem and deserves to be up there with Krampus, The Babadook and Sam as a new Halloween icon. Do yourself a favor and watch this film. I learned about this film at Midsummer Scream when The Trickster was seen creeping around the convention floor. Seeing him in person is quite an unnerving experience. Inspiration from many other horror movies is quite evident throughout the story but not enough to be a blatant rip-off. The creatures are well designed and the story is entertaining. Add this to your viewing list this Halloween.

Timmy (Caleb Thomas) is being raised by a single mom (Sarah Lancaster) who drove away their coke-head abusive father (Christian Kane). He is artistic and crafts items for Halloween. He is also bullied. He finds a book on Halloween in the attic of unknown origin and accidentally conjures the trickster (Doug Jones) who enacts revenge against the bullies. Fairy decent horror film in spite of the Eric Roberts cameo. Don't expect too much. Nothing really original, just old stuff done decently. Good "B" cast. Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

Such poor script and predictable storyline. Waste of time having Eric Robert's in the film for a 2 minute segment. Waste of Doug Jones talent as a performance actor. No substance no scares no gore! Dreadful. Poor effects. The ending!!! Well enough said let's bring some more cliches to the present day sequence mental home. Poor film very poor.
