HBO Max Streaming The Best Modern Horror Anthology (And We Still Need a Sequel)

Fans of Halloween can now watch Michael Dougherty’s 2007 horror film, *Trick ‘r Treat*, on HBO Max. This spooky anthology is a love letter to the holiday, featuring four connected stories – ‘The Principal,’ ‘The School Bus Massacre,’ ‘The Surprise Party,’ and ‘Sam’ – all unfolding on one Halloween night. Set in a small Ohio town, the film emphasizes that Halloween traditions must be followed, or else! *Trick ‘r Treat* was Dougherty’s first time directing and has become a cult classic, earning an 81% approval rating from critics on Rotten Tomatoes after a limited theatrical run.
