10/31

... in the hopes it would get better, but each story is not good at all. The acting in all of these are complete garbage. I honestly couldn't figure out if the point of these films is to make fun of the horror genre or if they're actually trying to be scary.

Skip this 'collection' and save yourself from losing 1.5hrs.

10/31 (2017) is currently available for free on Tubi and features a collection of six short horror stories. Like many anthologies, there are inconsistencies in the acting, story quality, and special effects across the segments, but a few of the stories are genuinely entertaining.

Each segment has a different director, including Brett DeJager (Bonejangles), Rocky Gray (making his directorial debut), Zane Hershberger (Force to Fear), John William Holt (Volumes of Blood), Hunter Johnson (60 Seconds to Die 1 & 2), and Justin Seaman (The Barn).

This isn't a top-tier horror anthology, but if you're in the mood for something new with some unique twists, it's worth a watch. Overall, it's an average horror collection. I'd recommend watching it once and would rate it 5.5/10.

Good little mindless horror film. Definitely worth a watch.

For every decent actor here they are paired up with someone stiff and bland. The script in these segments could maybe have had some critical notes by their peers. The mask they use are straight outta horror cons. They're not Spirit Halloween bad but I feel like if you've been to a con you've seen these on display at booths. Since every segment was done by different people the color grading is kinda everywhere. This is something I find common with these mixed director anthologies. With all this being said, I've seen far worse anthologies. Overall the sound design is decent and the dialogue sound isn't all over the place. If you're looking for something fun to watch on Halloween, stick to Trick R Treat, as this really gives off 0 Halloween vibes even tho every story is on 10/31.

10/31 is a horror anthology that features five different stories. All of the stories take place on Halloween. The quality of each story varies with the third story probably being my favorite of the bunch.

The first story involves two friends shooting a commercial at a haunted bed and breakfast. One of the friends keeps seeing this old woman.

Story number two; "Trespass" involves a young couple on their first date. The female decides that they movie that they went to is too boring so she suggests checking out an old country property with a spooky legend about an old scarecrow on the land.

The third tale involves a killer on the loose at a skating rink's Halloween party. This is probably my favorite of the stories. It has a good pace and an interesting twist.

Story number four might be the most bizarre. You've got a kid that loves Halloween, creepy trick or treaters, and Santa Claus!

The final story involves a slasher crashing a teen Halloween bash. Pretty standard fare.

Overall 10/31 is a pretty decent horror anthology.
