With Halloween less than a couple of weeks away, it is the perfect time for horror fans and general movie watchers looking for a little bit of scare this season to put on a horror movie or two in honor of this hallowed time of year. While there is always the option of the classic 1978 Halloween horror movie Halloween or the more recent revival of Michael Myers from 2018, there are also a few flicks that have been deemed “underrated” by the horror community. One that is often regarded as such is the 2007 Halloween horror anthology movie Trick ‘r Treat, and while it is a movie definitely worth watching during Halloween (or, honestly, any time of the year), it often overshadows another movie that boasts its own collection of Halloween stories — Tales of Halloween.Sixteen years after its release, Michael Dougherty’s Trick ‘r Treat has been deemed an underrated horror film so often that it might as well be considered “rated” at this point — and for good reason. The horror anthology movie tells three tales, each one centered on a Halloween-inspired scenario that takes its terrifying tales and infuses just the right amount of dark humor for an enjoyable watching experience for horror and nonhorror fans alike. Each segment of Trick ‘r Treat is framed by its overarching narrative starring Sam, whom many horror fans recognize as this unofficial Halloween mascot by his cute costume of orange pajamas and a burlap sack for a mask. Although Tales of Halloween may have taken inspiration from Trick ‘r Treat, this 2015 horror anthology movie still does something different regarding its narrative and deserves a little more recognition this Halloween.Tales of Halloween’s premise is told through ten different Halloween-related events taking place in the same suburb on the night of October 31st. Unlike some of the more popular horror anthology movies, Tales of Halloween does not have much of an overarching frame story. After a preview of each of the ten tales in the opening credits, the segments are staged as stories, being relayed by a DJ on a late-night radio show. A character from one segment may make a brief appearance in another segment every now and then, but otherwise, each story is distinctly separate from one another.RELATED: The Halloween Sequels Disservice Michael Myers – But Not For the Reasons Fans Think
