Overview
Eddie Weinbauer, a metalhead teen who is bullied at school, looks to his heavy metal superstar idol, Sammi Curr, for guidance. When Curr is killed in a hotel fire, Eddie becomes the recipient of the only copy of Curr’s unreleased album, which, when played backwards, brings Sammi back to life. As Halloween approaches, Eddie begins to realize that this isn’t only rock ‘n roll…it’s life and death.

Viewing Notes
I love 80s Heavy Metal. Therefore, I may be a bit biased. That said, TRICK OR TREAT rules!
Any movie where things go bad as the result of playing a Heavy Metal record backwards has got my attention.
Great soundtrack (time to track that down), decent performances, and a fun story make TRICK OR TREAT a fun watch.
