‘Trick ‘r Treat’ Also Coming to Select AMC Theaters on October 21st

As we recently learned, Michael Dougherty’s Trick ‘r Treat is being released in Regal theaters on October 6, and today we’ve learned the 2009 film is also bringing Sam to AMC Theatres for the Halloween season. It comes to select AMC Theatres locations beginning October 21!

These new showings mark the FIRST TIME the film has ever released wide in theaters!

As you may recall, Warner Bros. and Legendary didn’t seem to know what to do with Michael Dougherty’s Trick ‘r Treat way back in 2007, showing the film at various festivals but not actually releasing it wide until 2009. And the film wasn’t even released in theaters at the time, instead brought direct to DVD. Oh how the times have changed, to say the very least.

Here we are 15 years later and Trick ‘r Treat has become a hugely popular fan favorite, with merchandise filling up Spirit Halloween stores every Halloween season. As Dougherty had hoped way back in 2007, Sam has become a bona fide horror and Halloween icon in the past several years, the film far exceeding any expectations Warner Bros. originally had for it.

Trick ‘r Treat features five interwoven stories that occur on Halloween…

“An everyday high school principal has a secret life as a serial killer; a college virgin might have just met the guy for her; a group of teenagers pull a mean prank; a woman who loathes the night has to contend with her holiday-obsessed husband; and a mean old man meets his match with the demonic, supernatural trick-or-treater whose name is Sam.”

A yoga influencer discovers just how flexible fear can be in Mind Body Spirit, a new found footage horror movie that Welcome Villain Films is bringing to the table in a couple weeks.

Mind Body Spirit will release on Digital outlets May 7.

Get twisted with the official trailer and poster art below.

Matt Donato raved in his 4-star review, “Mind Body Spirit is a knockout horror session for the livestream era, which has me desperately waiting to see what its creators and stars do next.”

In Mind Body Spirit, “Anya, an aspiring yoga influencer, embarks on a ritual practice left behind by her estranged grandmother. She documents the practice on her YouTube channel for the world to watch, allowing her audience intimate access to her journey.

“But what starts as a spiritual self-help guide evolves into something much more sinister. As Anya becomes obsessed with the mysterious power of the practice, she unwittingly unleashes an otherworldly entity that begins to take control of her life – and her videos. Now Anya must race to unlock the truth, before her descent into madness threatens to consume her mind, body and spirit. By the time she reveals the true nature of the ritual, will it be too late?”

Mind Body Spirit was written and directed by Alex Henes & Matthew Merenda.

The upcoming horror film stars Sarah J. Bartholomew, Madi Bready, KJ Flahive, Anna Knigge, and Kristi Noory, and was produced by Dan Asma and Jesse McClung.
