Halloween Party

Recently enjoyed viewing this movie at the !st Annual Laughlin Film Festival. Of course, it's a Halloween Party at someone's home attended by friends, but it is the stories of some of the guests that bring special messages. This is what I loved most about the storyline. There are situations of adult confrontations, arrogant people, centered people, funny and gorgeous people, and very sensitive people. This movie contains young children in costume in adult situations and there are adults situations in the movie, so I personally do not recommended it for children under 14 unless the parent allows this. Most of the costumes are very in-typical for Halloween. That's refreshing. It gives me and my friends many different ideas for our Halloween party. The soundtrack is outrageous! I love blues and this soundtrack has many original songs by writers/singers from Nashville, Texas and California. I recommend this movie as a different spin of the usual Halloween ventures available out there.

I really enjoyed this little gem of a film! Bravo to all of the talented people that were part of this terrific production. I appreciated how this was very funny without being campy or over the top. I thoroughly enjoyed all of the characters! They were all very entertaining , talented and fun to watch!! I never found my wind wondering off or checking my cell phone! All good signs!! So for me, this film clearly gets a thumb's up!

Halloween Party … Different. Mysterious. Emotional. Totally entertaining with a crazy-terrific soundtrack! This Halloween Party is not a typical house party. The attendees are an incredible, humorous cast of characters who left me wondering, "Just where are these people from?" The optical marvel of the traveling camera took me from room to room, bumping into people, recognizing a few, chatting with many, and watching others from a distance…I was there. The fast-paced action was so captivating that, when the party ended, I didn't want to leave. This informal and seemingly unscripted movie defines one Halloween Party that would truly be the event of a lifetime. Any others would just be, well, a party.

At first you are drawn in by utter curiosity! As the first scene unfolds you will begin to feel right at home, literally as one of the guest at the party! The mood and pace are set early and effortlessly, contributing to this feeling of actually "being there". As you are carried from scene to scene, it becomes apparent that great pains were taken to create the impression that each scene is happening simultaneously. The movie expertly depicts Halloween as light hearted, a time to have fun and as with all great movies there is an underlying meaning, a "special twist" if you will. I highly recommend this movie! Beware of the twist, it will surprise you!

I keep coming back to the music... I miss rock and roll and there's a healthy dose on this soundtrack. Also, there's the scene with the wolfboy and the spider that made me shoot beer out my nose. That and the fortune teller are worth watching the whole thing for. I love the subplot of how the guy uses different cams to spy on his own party. It's a very clever way for the director to change things up, visually, and add a unique element to the movie. The people look like real people... you don't often see that in movies... it's kinda cool. Planning on putting this one during my OWN Halloween Party this year, then blasting out the soundtrack when things get going.
