Trick or Treat (1986)

A snapshot of a 1980's troubled teen high school heavy metal fan, all lovingly wrapped up in a 1980’s cheesy horror.
I have to admit, re-watching ToT rubbed my nostalgia parts until they got happy. If you have fond memories of Mötley Crüe, Twisted Sister, W.A.S.P and the girl that you waved awkwardly to in the corridor then you'll maybe experience similar feelings. It’s really good for the first half, but like many horror genre films from that era it gets a little silly near the end. If you can enjoy (or tolerate) the music then seek it out. I need this on blu.
