It's pretty cheap on Amazon's Marketplace. I think maybe I will buy it...

I've actually owned this movie for quite sometime but have yet to watch it and I've never seen it before either. Might need to pop this one in later on tonight after the Super Bowl.

I agree! But for some odd reason, Nick replaced it with the one that is up there now.

Trick or Treat has been high on my "must watch before I die" list ever since I read about it in Fangoria. I'd love to see a remastered special edition come out from Shout! Factory or some other adventurous DVD label, even though it's available on an OOP public domain DVD.

Casting Ozzy Osbourne against type as a fanatical preacher was a masterstroke of genius. I'd love to see Trick or Treat soon.

Thanks 80'sRocked and Crash for reminding me to finally dig out my old vhs tape of "Trick or Treat" to watch this Halloween season.  I was gonna post about it on the Scary Movie thread, but then I remembered the awesome pics that were posted here!



For anyone not knowing much about the movie "Trick or Treat" .. here's a few tidbits:

Marc Price (Skippy from "Family Ties") plays our headbanger, Eddie 'Ragman' Weinbauer. Price does the transition from outcast shy guy to badboy headbanger awesomely.  

Glen Morgan plays Weinbauer's friend, Roger.  Morgan is endearing and gives a good amount of emotion in portraying the concerned buddy.  Thought it was hilarious when Roger gets excited about telling Eddie that he just got a 'new' phone feature ... 'call waiting'  ha!

"Mom? Stan's here!" .. "What a hunk!"

Leslie --Eddie's love interest-- is played by Lisa Orgolini. Does anyone else think that she's a headbanger disguised in mall clothes? My thought here is that when Roger goes up to the boombox to play the Sammi Curr tape at the Halloween dance, she pops up behind him all interested, asking: 

“Judas? Are you playing some Judas Priest?” 

Then we have Doug Savant playing Tim, the prep that gives Eddie a hard time for no apparent reason. When I heard him say “Did the headbanger bang his head?” I cracked up.   Gotta give Savant credit though .. he played the preppy jerk flawlessly.



Sammi Curr played by the late Tony Fields was previously best recognized as a dancer on the tv show "Solid Gold" and on Michael Jackson's "Beat It" and "Thriller" videos. He only has a few creepy lines, but he makes the most of them.  I read once that the Curr role was originally offered to W.A.S.P. frontman, Blackie Lawless, who turned it down. I really enjoyed Tony Fields as Curr though .. He definitely  ignites the atmosphere at the Halloween school dance!  But, I actually wanted to hear a few tunes by The Kickers first.

Also, as mentioned earlier in this thread .. Ozzy Osbourne and Gene Simmons are outstanding in small roles in this film.    

This movie is a perfect to watch as a double feature with the film playing at the local theater in the movie .. "Lunch of the Dead".. wait, I prefer "Dance of the Dead" for my date night.

In the true spirit of Halloween.. all I can think to say after watching "Trick or Treat" is:

"Wake up sleepyheads .. It's party time.. Horns high for Sammi Curr!!”
