Tormented relentlessly by asinine athletes, Marc finds his escape in metal star Sammi Curr. When Curr suddenly dies, Marc is left adrift in high school hell. Then, a DJ (Gene Simmons) gives him a copy of Curr's unreleased final album.
The next thing we know, the record is playing backward, a demon is released, and the fun begins!
This movie is especially meaningful if you were a metal fan in the 1980's, or if you were an outcast in school. It's humorous, as well as a bit poignant...
I love this film for so many reasons. The bullying plays a big role, and would ultimately lead to interesting character development. It's always nice to see bullies get what the deserve! Marc Price gives a very good performance as Eddie, a nerdish metalhead who also goes by the name of Ragman, who is obsessed with rock superstar Sammi Curr. His character develops into a hero, who would risk his own life to save others.
The film features some very cool visuals, and excellent make-up. I loved the rock music, and the way the film unfolded. It becomes an action-packed race for survival, and along the way we're treated to some incredible visual and special effects. 'Trick or Treat' is great fun!
Walkmans, cassettes, cassette recorders... aah, man I loved the 80's!! Look out for a cameo by Ozzy Osbourne as a Reverend condemning rock music...!
Would I watch it again? Yes! (wonder how many times I've seen it already...)
So despite the movie's lack of appeal to awards committees, it does have some great moments, and although it does not have mass appeal, I don't think that was its purpose. It reaches out to the lost children of the world by showing them that they are not alone.
Besides, it is just a fun movie. Where else will you get to see Ozzy Osbourne preach about the evils of heavy metal music?
Oh yeah: One person compared Sammi Curr to Alice Cooper, which isn't a bad comparison, but I am positive that he was modelled after Blackie Lawless of W.A.S.P. He had the same look and similar attitude, and just as Blackie was a big target of the PMRC, Sammi was a big target of the parents groups in Trick or Treat.
I would also highly recommend another cheesy 80s horror movie called "Basket Case".

- CuriosidadesGene Simmons: KISS co-founder and bassist was offered the role of Sammi Curr, but he opted for the cameo role of Eddie's friend, rock DJ Nuke, instead. Simmons claimed that he did this as a tribute to famous rock DJ Wolfman Jack, his childhood idol. Ironically, Wolfman Jack was most famous for American Graffiti, that starred this movie's director Charles Martin Smith.

Reverend Aaron Gilstom: Demonic beasts. Whatever happened to the good old simple love song? "I love you." That's what good words use. Nowadays they have to write some sickness. It's just absoultely sick and bizarre, and I'm going to do my upmost best to try and stop it now."
Talk show host: Anything you'd like to add in conclusion?
Reverend Aaron Gilstom: These evil people have just got to be stopped.
