Legendary Pictures, Warner Bros. Pictures, and Saga Arts are digging up a Halloween treat too good to miss! Trick ‘r Treat is, for the first time ever, newly restored in 4K and back on the big screen with partner Fathom Entertainment for a special, long-awaited nationwide re-release of the horror classic on October 14 and 16.
For two nights only, die-hard fans and curious newcomers will have the chance to relive the frights, the laughs, and the twisted traditions of this cult favorite. Plus, audiences will get bonus content straight from writer/director Michael Dougherty himself.
Trick ‘r Treat weaves together sinister stories set on Halloween night: a high school principal, Dylan Baker (Spider-Man 2, Spider-Man 3) moonlights as a serial killer; a young virgin’s, Anna Paquin (X-Men franchise) search for the right man turns horrific; “Emma” Leslie Bibb (The White Lotus) and her husband discover the cost of ignoring holiday rituals; and a cantankerous old man, Brian Cox (Succession) faces Sam in a terrifying showdown. Darkly funny, gruesome, and endlessly rewatchable, this anthology secures Sam’s place as the true spirit of Halloween.
But fans seeing Trick ‘r Treat in theaters this October won’t just be treated to the film itself. They’ll also get to watch a special featurette where Dougherty revisits the Halloween memories that inspired Trick ‘r Treat, taking us through the evocations that brought the iconic Sam to life. And before Trick ‘r Treat begins, experience the very first appearance of Sam and the spark that started it all with the all-new 4K restoration of Dougherty’s 1996 animated short, Season’s Greetings.
Tickets are available at Fathom Entertainment and participating theatre box offices (theatre locations are subject to change).
