Trick 'r Treat

A mischievous Halloween spirit named Sam patrols the night, determined to punish anyone who breaks the holiday’s ancient rules—forcing a murderous principal, a naive college student, prank‑playing teens, and a reclusive loner into terrifying confrontations that threaten to turn their celebrations into deadly nightmares.

Poison, drowning, claw, or knife. So many ways to take a life.

Synopsis

Four interwoven stories take place on Halloween: an everyday high school principal leads a secret life as a serial killer; a college virgin may have just met the one guy for her; a group of teenagers execute a elaborate prank; and a bitter old recluse receives an uninvited guest.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

A crew of 45+ credited

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.

📉 Underperformed — grossed 0.0× its budget

Why 2.5×?

Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
